Description: Observation and memory skills are required to build complete suits - or melds - in order to win the strategic game of Mahjong.
Originating in China before winding its way to America in 1920, there are as many variants to the play of the game Mah-jong as there are to the spelling it. Believed to be based on a popular Chinese card game from the early Ming dynasty, 1360 - 1644, the leading consensus is that Mahjongg was created by army officers in 1850 who combined existing Chinese card and domino games together.
