Players can't just get rid of any tile that gets in their way: to remove a tile, it must have "open" sides – that is, it should not be surrounded by other tiles. However, mahjong is not as simple as just looking for pairs and seeing the tiles disappear – well, it is mostly just that, but there's a certain complexity to the whole process. Much like Microsoft Solitaire, Microsoft Mahjong aims to be a virtual interpretation of a well-known board game. There's really not much I can do to introduce the concept of mahjong to non-players.
That said, just how well does Microsoft's version of the game compare to other titles in the same vein? And what does it do to differentiate itself from its competitors? Tiles and Tables Sometimes, games just have to do what it's advertised on the tin in Microsoft Mahjong's case, the game's objective is pretty self-explanatory. Featuring a healthy selection of different tables, and even some achievements for the die-hard Live enthusiasts, this version of virtual mahjong provides players with precisely the kind of content they would expect. As far as default games go, Microsoft Mahjong is a surprisingly feature-rich version of a modern staple of casual puzzle games.
