How to Win

Mahjong136 is played with up to four players. Each player starts with 13 tiles. To win a round, you must complete a winning hand by drawing and discarding tiles: 4 melds + 1 pair (or 7 pairs).

See the example image below: Player 西 discards the 5 of Dots, and you (北) are waiting for that tile to complete your hand. When the tile is discarded, you can claim it to win. Tap Hu (胡) to declare the win; the round then ends and you receive your score.

 Back to the beginning: Please tap the icon in the top-right corner to return to the main menu.

The dealer for this round is the first player (東 / East). You (北 / North) have the 7 of Dots. Your goal is to complete a winning hand by drawing and discarding tiles: 4 melds and 1 pair.

Please refer to the highlighted rectangles in the Dot suit section. Try to form Pungs (triples), Chows (sequences), and one pair to win this round. 

Pung (碰): Form a triple by claiming a tile discarded by one of the other three players. 

After you Pung (碰) a tile discarded by the first player (東 / East), you must discard a tile—for example, the 1 of Characters. Once a meld is formed by claiming another player’s discard, it becomes fixed and cannot be changed later. 

Before entering “Ready Hand (聽牌)”:

You (北 / North) draw the 8 of Dots, which can complete the sequence (7,8,9). After you choose to discard the 5 of Bamboos, your hand becomes Ready Hand (聽牌) for this round: one Pung (1,1,1), three Chows (3,4,5), (7,8,9), (4,5,6), and one pair (東,東). 

Win the run: Please refer to "How to win"

 Scoring:

Item #4: You (北 / North) win this round by claiming a tile discarded by the second player (西 / West). You gain 50 points.
Item #3: The second player (西 / West) loses 50 points.
Item #2: The (莊) icon indicates the dealer. If the winner or loser is the dealer, the score change is ±50 points (an additional 50 points compared with a non-dealer result).
Item #1: This number shows how many tiles remain in the wall. If it reaches 10, the round ends in a draw.
Item #5: Proceed to the next round. 

Chow (吃, #1): Form a sequence by claiming a tile discarded by the player to your left (only).

Only the next player in turn (the player to the discarder’s left) can claim a tile to Chow.

You can ignore a Pung, Chow, or Kong opportunity by selecting Pass (過). 

Chow (吃, #2): More than one possible combination.

The third player discards the 6 of Dots. You (北 / North) have more than one possible Chow (sequence) you can form with it.

Chow (吃, #3): More than one possible combination.

After you select Chow (吃), you can choose only one of the two tiles:

Select 5 → Chow: (5,6,7)
Select 7 → Chow: (6,7,8) 

Chow (吃, #4): More than one possible combination.

The 5 of Dots is selected to form the Chow (5,6,7). 

Chow (吃, #5): More than one possible combination.

Done. Now select one tile to discard. 

Kong (槓, #1):

You can form a Kong by claiming a tile discarded by any other player, or by adding a fourth matching tile to a set you already have after drawing it yourself. In the example above, you can choose to Pung (碰) by claiming the discarded tile. 

Kong (槓, #2):

Done. After declaring a Kong, you will draw one extra tile.

Mahjong136 is easy to pick up, but it follows real Mahjong rules. It’s great for beginners, and you can also find more Mahjong tips and strategies online.

That’s the end of the tutorial. I hope this is enough for you to enjoy the game! ;-)
