Mahjong Club (Japan)

Mahjong Club is a two-player arcade game released around 1986 by Xex. This Japanese title presents a video adaptation of the classic tabletop game mahjong. Players face off against each other in an attempt to create valid sets of tiles and ultimately win the round. The gameplay involves drawing and discarding tiles, strategically building combinations according to traditional mahjong rules. Each player manages their own hand and board space, observing their opponent's moves to anticipate their strategy and plan accordingly. Success depends on careful tile selection and a bit of luck in the draw. As a medal game, Mahjong Club likely utilizes a system where players insert tokens or coins to play, competing for high scores and potentially earning rewards based on their performance.
