A Chinese mahjong learning site pairing short tutorial videos and printable regional rules PDFs with a browser table against three bot opponents.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-02 issue.

Field notes

The site presents a three-part learning path: short videos explain tiles and gameplay, printable PDFs provide regional references, and a browser table supplies three bot opponents. Its library names 16 styles, including Basic Mahjong, Harbin, Hong Kong, Taiwan Traditional, Shanghai Knocking, and separate Jinan and Weihai Shandong variants. The homepage says watching and reading require no account, while the play table is gated by a free email-and-password account and currently has no saved history.
