The same as Shanghai, but with better presentation (ten years later – thank goodness). The option to highlight the different layers of tiles improves visibility. Too bad you have to click it every turn. Also a shame that tiles placed to the left of a taller stack aren’t easily readable (the number is obscured).
Another handy feature: the option to mute the music! If I’m not mistaken, it was lifted straight from Full Contact.
The fatal flaw, though, is a highly annoying bug: if you fail and restart, the game doesn’t reset the remaining tile counter. This means your second game will be interrupted halfway through by a “Congratulations, you’ve won” screen, and you won’t be able to finish…
So long, Mah Jongg!
