Majong (in a metal case): A little more about the game

There are many entertaining myths about creating a logical game Mahjong. One of the most popular says that the game was invented by the ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius back in 500 BC. And he distributed it to various parts of China in parallel with the spread of his teaching. Another, less epic myth, tells that Mahjong He was invented by fisherman Jie in order to distract other fishermen from sea disease during fishing in the open sea. However, we know that myths are just myths, but here Mahjong – relatively young game, she is only one and a half centuries (and, as you know, for a board game it is almost youth 🙂

Not so important how appeared Mahjong, it is important that he has rapidly spread around the world and gained popularity not only in his native China, but also in Japan, the USA, Western Europe and even in the USSR. Perhaps that is why now there are more than 14 variations of the rules Majong, and even the number of game bones necessary for the game may vary depending on the rules.

In order to play this extremely entertaining and very beautiful game, you will need a set of bones (rectangular chips with various symbols on them). Traditionally, chips were made of ivory or bamboo, but now they are made of wood or dense plastic. In a classic set for playing in Mahjong It includes 144 bones, including 6 types and 42 varieties of bones. In addition to the game bones, you will need two ordinary cubes and a wind pointer – a token with the designations Vostok and South, so that players can determine the current round of the game (East or Southern, respectively).

AT Mahjong You need to play four, and all the players compete with each other in this ruthless Asian game (a joke, no blood and eastern martial arts, although the mess promises to be serious!). In order to start the game, it is necessary to mix all the game bones, turn them down with pictures down and build a wall around the game field, folding the chips on one another in pairs (oh these Chinese, just give them a reason to build a wall! 🙂 After The wall is erected, players take 13 bones from it and put them up vertically, face to themselves (so that other players do not see them).

During his course, the player takes one bone from the wall and throws one bone from his hand, spreading it on the playing field. Thus, the player seeks to gather a “winning hand” faster than others. AT Majonge There are three types of combinations that bring additional glasses to their owner: Chong (three consistent ones in face value of the same suit), Pang (three identical bones) and Kong (four identical bones-do not confuse with King Kong). As soon as the player announced the winning combination and showed it to other players, the round is considered complete, and the winner receives the status of an honorary Chinese 🙂

As we said earlier, there are many variations of the rules Majong And many additions that make the game even more interesting and more intense. So experienced players can choose the rules to their taste, experiment with additional conditions of the game and discover each time for themselves Mahjong Again!
