Unlike chess, Mahjong is a game i am truly new too and god was it confusing to get started in.
First things first, the rules. Wish i could give you a definitive answer on this one but im afraid i dont have the time nor attention span to do so as i found at least ten different versions of the game on the first google results page and i didnt dare venture into the dark abyss know as “results page 2”.
The rules of the version i played which was a rather simplified version i will admit, was you get a puzzle shape such as a pyramid. Each and every section of the pattern is comprised of small white tiles, each with a pattern and each being tied to one of seven overall sets of tiles. These sets are:
-Numbers
-Bamboo
-Seasons
-Dots
-Flowers
-The Dragons
-The four winds
