Which puzzle should you play?

For a calm game of matching, play Mahjong solitaire: find pairs of free tiles until the board is clear. Or try Mahjong Connect, where the tiles lie flat and a pair is free when a line with no more than two turns can join them. Every game we deal of either can be won.
For pure logic, try Sudoku, from Easy to Expert, or Minesweeper, where every board can be cleared without guessing.
For words, play the Crossword, Word Search or Word Scramble, each with twenty themes, from the holidays to the garden, or crack the code of a familiar proverb in the Cryptogram.

Our guides explain the techniques: Sudoku step by step, Minesweeper patterns, Mahjong tips, Mahjong Connect tips, crossword tips, cryptogram tips, word search tips and word scramble tips.
