Match and Clear is a three-dimensional sorting and tile-matching game that features Mahjong tiles and match-3 elements. The player's goal is to clear a pile of Mahjong tiles marked with traditional and modern imagery from a green baize tabletop before time runs out. Their secondary challenge is to not lose a match by selecting too many non-matching tiles at a time.
The player receives a match-3 style seven-slot tray near the bottom of the screen. The game tosses the tiles onto the tabletop in a haphazard way. As a result, some tiles are partially covered by other tiles, flipped over entirely or resting on a side. When the player makes selections, the game transfers each tile to the tray. They can select any tile, no matter its position on the table. They must select three matching ones to prompt the game to remove the set from the tray. If they fill the tray without making a match, they lose.
During tile selections, Match and Clear makes play more interesting by sliding some tiles atop or out from under other tiles or tipping tiles over. That said, it also helps the player in numerous ways. It supplies them with the number of unmatched tiles and remaining time in the upper-right corner. It also gives them several boosters, including ones that shuffle, flip and eliminate tiles. They can even undo moves.
After the player wins, they receive extra boosters. They can also open a gift box in the upper-left area of the home screen to access a big gift pack.
