Pagoda: Mahjong Roguelite

Tile solitaire with relics

$4.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Nine boards of mahjong solitaire, each target steeper than the last. Match pairs to build your chain, buy relics that rewrite the scoring, outclimb nine bosses. Pagoda is mahjong solitaire built as a roguelite. The tile game you already know, with a scoring engine that compounds — and bosses that bend the rules against you. THE CLIMB Nine boards stand between you and the win, each with a score target higher than the last. Clear the target and you climb. Fall short and the run is over. Every third board is a boss with a rule of its own: a mult that starts halved, tiles that stay face-down until they come free, a tray sealed shut so no reshuffle can save you. THE SCORING Every matched pair scores its chips times your mult — and every pair you take raises the mult for the rest of the board. The chain never breaks on an ordinary move; it only climbs. Winds and dragons pay more than numbered tiles, flowers and seasons most of all. THE PEDDLER Clear a board, earn coins, spend them between boards. Twenty-seven relics rewrite the math: more chips on a suit, a steeper chain, another reshuffle in the tray, a hint button, coins on every clear. You can hold six, and sell any of them back. BOARDS THAT GROW Six layouts, from the twenty-two tiles of The Gate to the ninety-eight of The Turtle. Every board is generated solvable — and when it locks up, a reshuffle re-deals the remaining tiles into an arrangement that can still be cleared. No dead runs from a bad shuffle. FIVE PATHS The Pilgrim takes no advantage and no handicap. The Merchant opens with a heavy purse but one fewer reshuffle. The Monk trades two relic slots for a spare tray and a steadier hand. The Lantern-Bearer starts with the Red Lantern lit and pays for it in steeper targets. The Fox begins holding two relics, with no undos at all. Four difficulty tiers sit on top, from Gentle to Ruthless. All of it is earned by playing. MADE TO RESPECT YOU • Pay once. No ads, no in-app purchases, nothing money can unlock. • Fully offline.
