Reech the Kobold is trapped behind a brick wall of mahjong tiles. On the other side of the brick wall is a fire-breathing dragon. This Is Fine.

This is my second PICO-8 game and the first one I felt like releasing. It's a strategy game based loosely on riichi mahjong and comes with a tutorial explaining the gist of how to play it.

This might have marginal appeal to folks who don't already play riichi -- it's a solo version of the game where you can build big hands without being interrupted.

If you're a riichi mahjong fan, here's the rule differences:

  • no situational yaku
  • no dora
  • no fu
  • no calls or other players at all
  • no open hands
  • pinfu has been replaced with all-chis
  • no yakuman hands
  • scoring is way simpler
  • no dead wall (play just continues until all tiles are depleted)
  • yakuhai can be scored on any honor tile

(Update 1-3: Game is much easier now.)
