Gui-Jongg

Gui-Jongg (EOL)

Gui-Jongg is played with tiles that are similar in function to playing cards. The object is to clear the playing area of tiles by matching pairs. You may only remove a pair of tiles if they both satisfy the following criteria:

There are no pieces directly to the left or right of the tile you wish to remove.
There are no pieces directly above any part of it.

A player can only remove the tiles one pair at a time. There are a total of 72 pairs in a game of Gui-Jongg. Each tile exists four times. Like cards, the tiles have standard suits. These suits are Characters, Bamboos, Circles, Dragons, Winds, Seasons, and Flowers. The table below shows all the tiles.

When matching pairs, Seasons and Flowers are the only suits you do not need to match exactly. Any Season or Flower combination counts as a pair because there is only one of each tille.
