Note: this is Mahjong Solitaire. I went in expecting either riichi or Chinese mahjong based on the title.
I’m not sure I’d describe the multiplayer mahjong games as “relaxing”. Riichi specifically gets into really intense situations.

Re: Show HN: I made a Mahjong browser game
#13This game, usually known to us as mahjong, is the solitaire version of mahjong.
But the game known as mahjong is a 4 player game where these tiles are like cards. It's similar to poker in a way, and really fun to play. Usually very fast paced too.
There are mahjong tables that automatically shuffle and sort the tiles, creating "hands" for all 4 players (I am not too familiar with mahjong terminology).

#14Nice! That was a fun game back in the day.
Interesting way of dealing with a narrower browser window, where the tiles "stack" instead of squeezing the images. Works pretty well, but it was nice to see them "click" into place once I widened my window.

#15I was thinking about this game the other day! Thanks for making this. I used to play this all the time when I was a kid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mk7QMxOgYTI.

#16Very nice, just a small suggestion you could add sounds just when you click your mouse and when you select/deselect a tile.

Worth mentioning where this is from, SHENZHEN I/O [1], very fun and cosy programming puzzle game. Really beautiful UI and sound design.

Good idea!

#19Hey, Nice Game! One suggestion - Can you add an indicator so that people will know to scroll down for rules and stuff. I figured this out really late and by then, I had already googled all the rules.
