Gnome Apps Series: Mahjongg – A Retro Puzzle Game

Gnome mahjongg Solitaire Offers Relaxing Distraction for‌ linux Users

Berlin, Germany – A revised version of the Mahjongg solitaire game for Gnome‌ 49 is now⁢ available, offering a visually appealing and ⁤simple-to-learn ⁢diversion for Linux⁢ users. While conventional Mahjongg involves four players ⁣building complete⁢ game pictures‍ with stones, this single-player adaptation draws⁢ inspiration⁢ from the card ⁣game Patience.

The Gnome request, available as a flatpak, presents players ⁢with a ‌pyramid-like structure of stacked stones. The ⁤goal is to clear the board by selecting ⁢matching pairs, with the caveat that stones must‌ have a free space beside them to ‍be chosen. Difficulty levels vary, and a hint system is‍ available with a ​time penalty.

“Find matching stones and empty⁢ the board,” describes the developer,adding that some stones can ⁤be deceptively similar. The application tracks player progress by recording season scores.

The game ​builds on existing Mahjongg ‌implementations like Kajongg for KDE. Users can find similar games‌ in thier distribution’s app store. The Gnome Mahjongg application can be downloaded‌ from Flathub: https://flathub.org/en/apps/org.gnome.Mahjongg ‌and further information is available on the Gnome Apps ‍website: https://apps.gnome.org/de/Mahjongg/.
