## What is Mahjong 4 Joy?

Mahjong 4 Joy is a no frills online multiplayer mahjong game with live voice chat. Play mahjong the way you want -Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, etc. - with your friends!

- Do you want to play mahjong with your friends, but are not able to physically meet?

Now you can do it from your phone, and chat at the same time, like you do on the mahjong table! 

- Do you want to be able to count your own fan, have your own house rules, and your own point system per fan or kung?

Mahjong 4 Joy do not impose rules or point system. It is like a sandboxed game. Decide yourself how many fan should a hand be, and how many points is that worth. Do note, because of this, false mahjong is also possible!

- Do you play 13 tiles? 16 tiles? Flowers or no flowers? Animals? 14, 15 or 16 tiles to stalemate? All these are customizable and more!

There is currently no matchmaking or playing with strangers/bots as this is a game made for playing with friends.

It is highly customizable and comes in English, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese. Choose the table settings you want and off you go!

Note - There are no checks if a hand is valid to 'win' or scoring system of any particular hand. Since it's your rules, you get to decide which hands are valid and what the scoring should be.
