Gameplay
The typical initial setup
Gameplay is against one to three computer opponents using the tiles associated with the Japanese variation of the game[2] This is also known as the 立直, リーチ (Ready Hand) variation. 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" would serve as a reminder to players about the status of the deck.
Reception
1,450,000 copies have been sold in Japan.[3]
