How it plays

Mahjong in three steps.

  1. The 144 tiles hold three suits, four winds, three dragons, and flowers and seasons, and everyone takes thirteen while the dealer draws a fourteenth.

  2. Draw a tile and discard one to keep thirteen, or claim another player's discard to complete a set or win.

  3. Complete four sets and a pair worth at least three faan to win the hand, and once every seat has dealt, the highest total wins.

The moments you play for

Why Mahjong gets under your skin.

Four players and a long, thoughtful evening.

Claim the discard

Claim someone's discard for a pung, a kong, a chow from the player on your right, or the winning tile.

Win on your draw

Draw your own winning tile and every other player loses points to you, not just one of them.

Limit hands

Thirteen orphans, nine gates and four kongs are among the hands that reach the thirteen faan limit on their own.
