Train your logic by playing mahjong!
- Basic points for combinations
Each winning combination brings a certain number of points:
- Pong (triplet of three identical tiles) - 4 points
- Chow (sequence of three tiles of the same suit) - 2 points
- Kong (four identical tiles) - 8 points
- Pair (two identical tiles, end of the hand) - 2 points
- Closed win (Mahjong solved without taking discarded tiles) - +10 points
- Open win (Mahjong solved using discarded tiles) - +5 points
- Additional bonuses
Players can earn additional points if they collect special combinations or act tactically:
- First win in the game - +15 points
- Instant Mahjong (win in 1 move) - +20 points
- Final move (win with the last possible tile) - +10 points
- Three Kongs in one game – +30 points
- Pure suit (all tiles of the same suit) – +25 points
- Big dragons (three triplets with dragons) – +50 points
- Four winds (four triplets with winds) – +40 points
- Seven pairs (a hand of seven pairs) – +35 points
- Points for strategic behavior
In addition to combinations, we encourage a strategic approach:
- Blocking an opponent’s winning move – +5 points
- Detecting an opponent’s mistake (mistaken Mahjong) – +10 points
- Minimum number of discards (less than 5 per game) – +7 points
- Penalty points
Some actions can lead to a loss of points:
- Erroneously calling “Mahjong” – -10 points
- Omitting a possible move – -3 points
- Frequent discarding of tiles that help the opponent – -5 points for each mistake
- Long delay of the move (more than 30 seconds without action) – -2 points
- Final calculation
After the game is completed, the points are added up and the winner is determined:
- The player with the most points wins
- In case of a tie, the one who finished the game faster wins
