Introduce
Introducing Mahjong (Japan) (Rev 2), a classic Mahjong game for the NES console. The primary objective is to form a valid hand of Mahjong tiles, combined according to specific rules. Gameplay revolves around players taking turns to draw a tile and then discard a tile.
Players aim to collect sets of three identical tiles (pung), four identical tiles (kong), or sequences of three consecutive tiles of the same suit (chi). When a player completes a valid hand (typically four sets and a pair), they can declare "Ron" (if taking a tile discarded by another player) or "Tsumo" (if drawing the winning tile themselves) to win the round.
The game usually features AI opponents, providing a traditional Japanese Mahjong experience. Players need good strategy to manage their hand, decide when to hold or discard tiles, and anticipate opponents' moves. A complex scoring system based on various "yaku" (scoring elements) may be implemented, adding depth to the game. Mahjong (Japan) (Rev 2) delivers an authentic and challenging Mahjong experience on the NES platform.
