Mahjong is a game of skill in which players strive to build a complete set of tiles following certain patterns. It is played by four people who form two opposing pairs. Players draw and discard tiles until one of them forms a winning pattern and cries 'Mahjong'. Mahjong is widely popular in many Asian countries including Brunei, where it is one of the most beloved games.
At mobile casinos in Brunei, the game is quite similar to the traditional version but with a few variations. To begin a game, each player is dealt 13 tiles and the dealer lays out tiles from the remaining face down game tiles. The goal is to create a winning combination from the 13 tiles in hand. Players then place their bets on the table and the dealer will deal the remaining tiles. The game is won by the player who is able to form a winning pattern from the tiles in hand.
The winning combination of tiles must make a point value of at least 4 depending on the game variant. In some variations, players need to collect four sets of three tiles and an optional pair, while other variants have variations such as collecting 3 sets of tiles and an optional pair. Players can also create their own variations of the game according to their preferences.
