Minefield mahjong

Minefield mahjong is a specialized mahjong variant found in the anime and manga series, Kaiji. This variant features two players, who take 34 tiles and arrange 13 of them into a tenpai hand. Any remaining tiles are used as player discards, where the players take turns making their discards. In a sense, this can be interpreted as a tile discard reading drill for defense practice.

Rules

• Players gather 34 tiles.
• Of the 34, 13 tiles are used to form a tenpai hand.
• Remaining tiles are to be used for discards.
• Players take turns making those discards.
• Order of which player makes the first discard may be determined using various methods, such as the dice roll or a coin flip.
• Naturally, if a discarded tile is a winning tile, then ron may be called.
• A player may not win with one's own discard; or a player cannot call tsumo.
• If a winning tile is discarded, then furiten is invoked.
• An additional rule to the hand formation may require players to produce a mangan or better hand.
