Are all games in Mahjong Titans solvable?

Hello!

I occasionally encounter a situation when all tiles except two are
removed, and these tiles are arranged one below the other. Of course,
this does not necessarily mean that such a game is unsolvable, although
it might be very hard to win at first go.

Is there any statement from Microsoft that all games in Mahjong Titans
are solvable?
 
As with all Mahjong type games, you play to conclusion. Sometimes the
conclusion is that the game can't be won. Start over!

There are obviously several conclusions for each game as you can lose
winnable games. <http://home.halden.net/vkp/vkp/layouts.html> mentions
four "schools" of layout creation. My question basically is which
school the Vista programmers followed.
 
When 2 like tiles are on top of one another at the end of the game, it is
obvious which conclusion is used. I have seen this a few times. Play again.
It's only a game.
