Mahjongg Solitaire to Go II

[Overview] [Controls] [Screenshots] [F.A.Q.]

Overview:

Mahjongg Solitaire to Go II is a Mahjongg solitaire (tile matching) game for the Danger hiptop (aka T-Mobile Sidekick). The game can be played with the screen open or closed. It is playable even when you aren't connected to the GPRS network (high scores will be synced up automatically when connected GPRS network). The object of the game is to remove all 144 tiles from the board (there 36 unique tiles, each with two pair to be removed). Tiles are removed in matching pairs. A tile can be removed if it is completely uncovered and has either its right or left edge completely exposed.

Mahjongg Solitaire to Go II has 14 unique layouts of varying degrees of difficulty (8 more layouts than the original Mahjongg Solitaire to Go). The game provides two different methods of input. The default input method allows the user to use the Scroll Wheel (or trackball on the SK3) or D-Pad to select through all the playable tiles and select them with either the Scroll Wheel or Return key. The Alt Input method allows the user to control a cursor with either the D-Pad or trackball on the SK3 instead. The ten best times for each layout will be stored and shown on separate high score lists for each layout.

Can I download Mahjongg Solitaire to Go II now? When will it be released?
Mahjongg Solitaire to Go II is available now through the Catalog application for the T-Mobile sidekick (T-Mobile USA and T-Mobile UK) and the Telstra hiptop in Australia.
Will my high scores be saved if the battery dies or I get a new/replacement hiptop (including upgrading from an older device (such as the sidekick 3) to a newer device (such as a Sidekick LX))?
Your high scores are stored like any other data on the hiptop. If you completely power off the device, the battery dies or you receive a new or replacement hiptop, then your previous high scores will be automatically synced back up when your device is on and connected to the data network. Any high scores you achieve in the meantime would be merged with your previous high scores at that time. Additionally, any scores for the original 6 layouts of the original Mahjongg Solitaire to Go will also carry over to Mahjongg Solitaire to Go II.
What happened to Hipjongg Solitaire?
