The major difference in the play rules between each of the rounds is that the round wind is a more valuable tile and can be used by any player to score the [[yakuhai]] [[yaku]]. Additionally, the conditions under which the match ends may vary depending on the round, with additional rounds usually having a form of sudden-death rule. | The major difference in the play rules between each of the rounds is that the round wind is a more valuable tile and can be used by any player to score the [[yakuhai]] [[yaku]].

In many rulesets, a goal score must be reached by at least one player for the game to end. If this score is not met by any player at the end of the normal rounds of the game, the game proceeds into an '''additional round''', or '''[[enchousen]]''' {{kana|延長戦}}. This round is usually played as sudden death: the game end as soon as a player reaches the goal score. Usually, but not always, the game will also end at the end of the additional round regardless of score; and the game will not proceed into a second additional round. | In many rulesets, a goal score must be reached by at least one player for the game to end.
