Rivers Mahjong, which is also known as Shisen Sho or Four Rivers Mahjong, is a solitaire game based on the classic Chinese mahjong game. With beautiful graphics and music full of Sinicism, this game brings you back to China and offers you many hours of relaxing fun. As in ordinary mahjong solitaire, the challenge is to eliminate all the tiles from the board, but you need to clear one pair in a particular way.

Rivers Mahjong will fill your every need, whether you want a real challenge, or just a quiet relaxing game of mahjong solitaire. It's never short of fun along the journey. ***** Features ***** ● More fun than other ordinary mahjong solitaire games. ● 75 unique levels of addictive gameplay. ● Beautiful art and music full of Sinicism. ● Play freely in Relaxed Mode without a timer.
