Mahjong is a tile-based game that originated in China, typically played by four players. The game uses a set of 144 tiles, which are divided into different categories like bamboo, circles, characters, and honor tiles. The goal is to form a complete hand, usually consisting of four sets of triplets or sequences and a pair. Players take turns drawing and discarding tiles, trying to complete their hand while also blocking their opponents. The game involves strategy, memory, and some luck, as players aim to form the best combination of tiles and declare "mahjong" when they complete their hand. Different variations of the game exist, but the basic rules and goal remain similar.
