Sep 23, 2023 · Mahjong is a game of both luck and strategy. The luck factor adds fairness, uncertainty and excitement to the game. But mastering mahjong strategy can maximize the value of luck, win more and lose less.
One of the few mahjong manga to actually represent the game in an approximately realistic way and to focus to an extent on strategy instead of superpowers or unholy luck. Also has some pretty interesting strategy articles between some of the chapters.
I am not familiar with any novels but there are numerous manga about mahjong some more realistic than others. There might also be light novels some of which may have been translated into English either by professional translators or by fan translators.
They led me to mahjong apps to learn the game. But the only one I could find in English uses Chinese scoring rules, not Japanese scoring. So I want to read a manhua about mahjong so I can understand the plot and the game.
