Mahjong is a traditional Chinese game, played by four people around a square table. The game is played with tiles rather than playing cards. The aim is to be the first player to get a complete hand-four sets of three and a pair. The rules for playing and scoring vary drastically between different parts of China. This article will introduce you to the basic rules for playing. The scoring rules can be learned later, depending on which rules you choose to follow. Use of the "flower tiles" will not be included.
