MAHJONG PLAYER RESOURCES
Keep your tiles moving.
Everything you need to practice between lessons, study the card, find your next game, and stay sharp. The full Mahjong toolkit, in one place.
Solo Mahj - your practice table for one
You learned to play. Now practice, with real tiles in your hands instead of an app. Solo mahjong lets you play a full game on your own, so you get used to how the tiles feel and make decisions without anyone waiting on you.
Two ways to set up your table:
✦ Print it tonight: my printable guide, $7.99. A two-page PDF with the practice board on page one, with the step-by-step instructions on page two. Download it right after you buy, print it at home, and play tonight. (P.S. You’ll need a set of tiles, ready for American Mahjong play.)
✦ Ships to your door: the SoloMahj board, about $80. A sturdy, ready-made board from SoloMahj.com, with the solo guide included. Use code MASTERYOURMAHJONG for 10% off.
STUDY SMARTER
Digital guides - your shortcut to confident play
Printable guides built on the Mahjong Made Simple method. Keep them next to your tiles, glance at them mid-game, and stop second-guessing. New guides are added throughout the year.
✦ Start here: Mahjong Made Simple Starter Sheet. The two-page handout from Mahjong 101: tiles, the Charleston, and how a turn works. Now yours to keep.
✦ Card Study 2026. A calm, one-section-at-a-time workbook for this year's card.
✦ More coming. Strategy guides and beyond.
