There's not actually much of a strategy to this, but know that there are 4 exact copies of each tile on the board, so if you see all 4 tiles at once and they are all free to match on either their left or right sides, match them right away. 

The only exceptions to this are the 4 flower tiles: a Cherry Blossom with a branch, a Lotus Flower, a stalk of Bamboo with leaves on it, and a red Iris are the images on them and they will match with any another Flower tiles; and the 4 Season tiles: Desert Pyramids, Palm Tree Beach, Snowy Mountain, and...the Brain Tree? Same rule as the Flower Tiles where they will match with other Seasons.

I recommend that you use Medium, the bonuses are enough to bump you well over AAA's score if you get the puzzles done with 90 seconds to spare each stage.

This is possible due to the reset button. When you reset a puzzle, you get a new puzzle for the current stage and a reset bonus counter. You use this as many times as you want, no matter what stage you are in and the points you have gained from previous stages will not reset and will carry over with each puzzle reset. This means you have unlimited tries to get those bonus points for each stage, so solve the puzzle as fast as possible and if the bonus is less than 90 seconds, reset it and try again.

You only have 3 stages to get points per game, so make your bonuses count.

Honestly, if you have the patience (and luck), you can definitely beat AAA here.

HINT: Hints will tell you where a potential match is if you can't find it and are trying for the time bonus. In the game window, type 'cyodrake' at any time once per game to get an extra hint, but will carry over from stage to stage, and will remain if you press the Reset button. Once used, however, the extra hint is permanently gone.
I never used them, but maybe you'll use it?
