Microsoft Mahjong (formerly Mahjong Titans, Shanghai Solitaire and Taipei) is a computer game version of mahjong solitaire published by Microsoft. 🍎 The version titled Mahjong Titans was developed by Oberon Games and included in Windows Vista[4] and Windows 7 (except Starter 🍎 and Home Basic editions). It takes advantage of the new graphical user interface (GUI) of Windows Vista, and includes features 🍎 such as tile set and background choices. (In Windows Vista builds 5219 up to 5259, the game was known as 🍎 Shanghai Solitaire.[5]) The game did not make it to Windows 8; however, a standalone version, developed by Arkadium[2] and published 🍎 by Microsoft Studios,[3] can be downloaded from the Windows Store free of charge and played without download on the web.[6][3]
An 🍎 older version of the game was known as Taipei and was bundled in Microsoft Entertainment Pack 1 and Best of 🍎 Microsoft Entertainment Pack.[7][8] That version included 32,767 possible configurations.[9]
Games are not entirely random. There is always at least one pair 🍎 within five tiles of the topmost five tiles in the turtle layout and often two pairs. The algorithm for tile 🍎 organization positions tiles such that they can mostly be paired on the same level, or otherwise a matching tile is 🍎 available in an accessible position one level down. It does not check to ensure that the matching tile is not 🍎 positioned beneath its partner. Since every tile has 3 partners this is not enough, by itself, to prove the game 🍎 is impossible to solve.
The newer version of Microsoft Mahjong has numerous further layouts, improved graphics and sound, Internet features such 🍎 as a set of daily challenges that reward the user with "badges" when completed, and Xbox Live integration.
