Mahjong Towers II - description of program

The Mahjong game is known as the “Ancient Game of the Chinese”. The game originated as a four player game where players compete to create matching tiles and achieve a winning hand. Whether its called Majong, Ma Jong, Mah Jong, Mah Jongg, Ma Diao, Ma Cheuk, Mah Cheuck, Baak Ling, or Pung Chow the history of this game is as intriguing as the game itself.

A new variety of the game known as Shanghai Mahjong (or Mahjong Solitaire) allowed the game to gain worldwide popularity, eclipsing even the popularity of the card game solitaire. The solitaire variety of Mah Jong is ideally suited for computers and distribution on the Internet.
