What is riichi mahjong?

Riichi mahjong is the Japanese variant of the popular Asian game, where four players take turns drawing and discarding tiles to complete hands and compete for points

What’s so great about it?

Fun social interaction meets psychological mindgames in a sport that’s equal parts strategy and chance – and did we mention it’s been found to reduce the risk and impact of dementia and Alzheimer’s?

How do I learn to play?

We’re always happy to teach new players at any of our local meetups, but if you’d like to read up on the game on your own time, we have a collection of resources designed to kickstart your journey
