In the 1920s, the 19th-century strategy game became a hit in the United States. Although we play the game with tiles, it's much like rummy. To earn points, the players meld beautifully designed tiles with Chinese characters and symbols. Pongs, kongs, chows, and the majestic Mahjong are among the countless Melds, kongs, chows, and the mighty Mahjong.
People from many cultures are challenged by Mahjong's long distances because it challenges people from many different backgrounds. Mahjong has also broken down communication barriers, bringing neighborhoods and communities together as a result. Since people of all ages play, the game also bridges the generation gap.
To name a few, Mahjong comes in a variety of styles, including American, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Japanese. Find the version you like best to play. Learn several different ways to play and enjoy them all. If you've never played, the season is the perfect time to learn.
