Some days, you have time for a whole afternoon of mahjong. Other days, a few minutes is what you’ve got.
This week, I’m highlighting Mini Mahj Daily, a free daily challenge you can play on your phone or computer. And if you’ve been looking for a colorful tile set, Mahjong Co. is this week’s featured find.
💡 This week’s practice pick
Mini Mahj Daily
If you enjoy having a little daily puzzle to look forward to, give this one a try.
Mini Mahj Daily is a free, streamlined American mahjong game you play right in your browser. Everyone starts with the same tiles and wall, playing against the same three computer opponents. The decisions you make shape how your game unfolds.
It’s designed to take about five to ten minutes, and there’s a new challenge each day. No app to download, and there’s a tutorial if you’d like help getting started.
It’s been recently updated to use the 2026 NMJL card - and it’s even available to reference in the browser too so you can play without your card near by!
You’re invited to my free group
I have a free Lara’s Mahjong Edit group on Mini Mahj Daily, and I’d love for you to join us. We can play the daily challenge and compare how we did!
🎯 Challenge Corner
Notice one decision
When you play today’s Mini Mahj challenge, notice one discard that makes you pause. What are you keeping, what are you letting go of, and why?
When you finish, think back to that moment. Would you make the same choice with the information you had then?
You don’t have to win to take something useful away from a game.
