84 MahJongg tiles.
6 dragons (2 each of White, Green and Red), considered rank 0, dragons have no suit.
The tiles 1-9 of the 3 suits (Bamboos, Characters, Circles), 2 of each rank.
12 seasons (3 each of Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall), rank above the 1-9 tiles, seasons have no suit.
12 flowers (3 of each flower), rank above the 1-9 tiles, flowers have no suit.
To build each of the 6 rows into a sequence consisting of a dragon, a set of 1-9 of the same suit, and then either 4 seasons in order or 4 flowers in order.
| • | 90 tile spaces - Fill in the gaps (spaces) by moving the next highest ranking tile in suit to the tile to the left of the space OR the next lowest ranking tile in suit to the tile to the right of the space into the space. A dragon can be played to the leftmost space of a row. At the start of the game 84 tiles are dealt to the 6 rows leaving 6 randomly scattered gaps. The object is to rearrange the tiles so that each row contains a dragon/suit/seasons or flowers sequence starting with a dragon tile on the far left. For example, the image below shows a completed row: |
This row consists of a red dragon (it could be any other dragon), the 1 to 9 of craks, and 4 season tiles in sequence 1,2,3,4. These seasons could be the flowers 1,2,3,4 instead.
| • | Shuffle (left) - When no more moves are possible, click on the shuffle indicator on the left (you can also just press the Enter key). All tiles that are not in suit sequence starting from a dragon in the leftmost position of the row will be picked up (that is, once a tile is in a position it needs to be in to win the game, it will remain there through a shuffle). A gap will be left next to the tiles that are in their proper positions then the picked up tiles will be placed randomly to fill out the rest of the row. Three shuffles are allowed. |
Free Parking is a variation of Valet Parking with 3 shuffles instead of one.
