Buy & download →Love your daily crossword, Wordle or Connections? The Morning Mahj gives you the same morning puzzle joy, American Mahjong style.
Bring your card, dear. Sixty puzzles built from real hands on the 2026 card, and every one has exactly one answer. Print them for the table, or scan any page and play it on your phone. Both digital and paper, in one download.
The Morning Mahj is practice that feels like play. Each puzzle has you build a hand in your head, tile by tile, the way you do at the table, so by the last page you read a rack faster than anyone in your group.
SIX WAYS TO PLAY • Fill the Rack: some tiles are placed, your card fills in the rest • Crossed Racks: hands cross like a crossword and share a tile • Crak the Rack: a few guesses and their clues, name the hidden hand • Sort the Rack: sixteen pieces, four hands, sort them out • Broken Racks: hands that fell apart, rebuilt in card order • Read the Table: a little mahjong mystery, who held what?
WHAT'S INCLUDED • The Morning Mahj, 66 pages: covers, a note from Prim, how to play, 60 puzzles and the answer key • Four PDFs: US Letter and A4, each in full color and an ink saver version • Ten puzzles of each kind, four easy, three medium and three hard • A QR code on every puzzle page that opens that puzzle online, where you drag the tiles into place • The whole book online to flip through on your phone, tablet or computer
HOW TO USE 1. Download the PDF in your size. 2. Print the pages you want, or the whole book. The ink saver version is kind to home printers. 3. Keep your 2026 card beside you and solve with a pencil. 4. Prefer to play on a screen? Scan the code at the foot of any page.
PLAY ONLINE Buy while signed in and the whole book is on your login at once. Not signed in? Your personal code is on the thank you page and in your thank you email; type it at orderofthetile.com/puzzle-book/claim. The book opens on any phone, tablet or computer. Each code works once, so a gift works too.
ONE ANSWER, EVERY TIME Every puzzle was checked by computer against every hand on the 2026 card, so only one answer fits. If it fits your card, it is right.
PERFECT FOR • Practicing the new card between games • A Christmas gift for your mahjong group, your teacher or your favorite partner, both digital and paper • Rainy afternoons, travel days and waiting rooms • Teachers looking for card reading practice for their students
PLEASE NOTE • You need your own 2026 National Mah Jongg League card to solve these puzzles. The card is not included, and this book does not reprint it. The answer key names each hand by its section and line, and your card shows you the rest. • This is a digital download. Nothing is shipped. • Colors may look a little different from screen to printer. • For personal use. Please do not share or resell the files. • The Morning Mahj is not affiliated with The New York Times, its crossword, Wordle or Connections.
