Extension summary
An old Chinese game played with small painted tiles. Mahjong is a game of skill, strategy and calculation and involves a certain degree of chance.
How to play: Identify each mahjong tile. Each tile set contains 3 simple suits (stones, characters, and bamboos), 2 honor suits (winds and dragons), and 1 optional suit (flowers).
Match any two tiles that are free and have the same symbol. A tile is considered free and clickable only if it is uncovered and unblocked on its left and right sides.
The first player to match a hand of 14 tiles and thus "call mahjong" ends the game, whereupon tiles are scored and a winner is declared.
The excitement of mahjong lies in the decisions that you will constantly have to make. Is it preferable to discard a tile and thus gain an advantage, or would it be more prudent to stay with a decent hand? There is the exhilaration of winning a hand as well as regret at not having been bold enough to have made a different choice. Like poker, you will learn a lot about your opponents as you play mahjong and adjust your strategy according to their strengths and weaknesses.
