Hoyles Mahjong - PC Games

Games such as backgammon and draughts are well-known around the world, but the Chinese game of mah jong has few players in Europe. This is set to change with the release of Mah Jong Tiles.

The game is fiendishly difficult to learn and it is no different on a PC. There are more than 60 tile layouts to master and experienced mah jong gamers can even create their own. Gamers can play friends on the same PC or practise against themselves.

The whole experience is almost sensual. A beguiling mix of background music and colours means gamers can choose tile sets to fit their moods. Playing Mah Jong Tiles is like visiting the East itself--challenging, mysterious and intoxicating.--Paul Munford
