Mahjong Koi Uranai (Japan set 1)
Nichibutsu • 1992


Nichibutsu’s Mahjong Koi Uranai is a two-player tabletop game released in Japan in 1992 that combines traditional mahjong gameplay with fortune-telling elements. Players use a specialized keyboard to arrange tiles and attempt to create valid hands, following standard mahjong rules. A unique feature of the game involves receiving fortunes from an on-screen character who also offers playful predictions about the player's future – including some surprisingly suggestive pronouncements! The game’s title translates to "Mahjong Love Fortune Teller," hinting at its lighthearted and unconventional theme. Two Zilog Z80 processors manage gameplay and sound, accompanied by a Yamaha YM3812 chip and digital audio converters for the soundtrack. Mahjong Koi Uranai provides an unusual twist on the classic tabletop experience with its fortune-telling mechanic and humorous character interactions; it is intended for mature audiences.
