Mahjong Coach: American Rules

Learn American mahjong, the real game your friends play, not the tile-matching one on a computer. This is the National Mah Jongg League version: four players, 152 tiles, and a printed card of the only hands that count. If you have been shown the game once and still feel lost, start here. LEARN IT • How to Play — the whole rulebook in sixteen screens you tap through • Tiles & Terms — nine quiz levels covering every tile, group and joker rule • A tutorial hand played one decision at a time, with the reasoning shown PRACTICE IT • Five drills, each on one skill: choosing a hand off the deal, your first discard, spotting an illegal hand, reading the table, playing defense • Full games against three opponents — Charleston, calling, exposures and all • Coached mode rates every tile in your rack and shows the hand you are closest to. On Your Own gives you the card and nothing else, the way it is at a real table. PLAY IT FOR REAL • A scorepad for game night — enter names, record each hand, and the payments work themselves out. Undo anything, because somebody always misremembers who threw it. YOUR CARD The League's card is copyrighted, so this app ships with its own — the Practice Card — and you can learn the whole game without owning anything. If you have this year's card, add it once, one tap per tile, and every drill and every opponent plays from the card you actually use. WHAT IT COSTS How to Play, Tiles & Terms, the tutorial hand, the scorekeeper and adding your card are free forever. One purchase unlocks the five drills and unlimited games. Bought once, not rented — no subscription, no adverts, nothing that expires. Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign-up, and nothing is collected about you.
