3100 Country Club Road SouthwestAmerican Mahjong (often called American Mah Jongg) is a fun, social tile game that combines strategy, pattern-building, and a little luck. Typically played with four players, the goal is to create specific hands using tiles drawn and discarded during the game.
American Mahjong follows rules set by the National Mah Jongg League, with a new card released each year—keeping the game fresh and exciting. It’s easy to learn, endlessly engaging, and best enjoyed with good company, conversation, and a few laughs around the table.
