Mahjong Taikai II Special is a digital adaptation of the classic Mahjong game, originally released on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and later ported to the Sega Saturn, Dreamcast, and PlayStation. Designed for single-player, it features virtual opponents and employs Japanese Riichi rules, emphasizing strategic hand-building for scoring. Players should note that terminology is based on Japanese conventions, which may differ from traditional Chinese Mahjong.
Mahjong Taikai II was first released in the SNES console and ported to Saturn, Dreamcast and Playstation consoles.
These are single player games (as with card games Mahjong player have hidden hands, so multiplayer with one screen wouldn't work too well) with virtual opponents. The Mahjong rules used are Japanese Riichi (Reach) rules, which is a somewhat streamlined version of traditional Mahjong rules where the emphasis is on building special hands to get lots of points — Mahjong players should take note that terms used in this game are Japanese rather than Chinese, though they are similar so it's not difficult to adjust.
