Gameplay

The typical initial setup

The game consists of Japanese mahjong (also known as riichi mahjong) against one to three computer opponents. Spreading to most mahjong-related video games after this one, it has become the most widely accepted form of mahjong to the Japanese gamer. The "tiles remaining counter" served as a reminder to players about the status of the wall.

Reception

1,450,000 copies have been sold in Japan.[2]
