You will experience exhilaration, frustration, delight and infuriation (not seriously!) when you play this ancient Chinese game whose aim is to be the first to complete one of the many combinations of suits and numbers possible with the small decorated tiles. Playing involves both strategy and luck and is always enjoyable. Methods of play vary in different parts of the world, but we follow the rules set out in the book 'The Game of Mah Jong' by Thompson and Maloney (Kangaroo Press. ISBN 978-0-8641-7302-7). You will need your own copy (We have 2 new copies available for purchase at £21, a slight reduction on the 'World of Books' price ). As we play at tables of 3 or 4 people it can spoil the enjoyment of games if anyone has regularly to leave before the end, so we appreciate players who can commit to the full 2 hours.
