2010 Mahjongg

2010 Mahjongg, the latest release version 4.0, is a standout in the Games category, specifically under the Board subcategory. Developed by Rightdown software, this program offers a comprehensive and immersive mahjongg experience.

The game executable, Mahjongg10.exe, introduces a visually impressive interface with OpenGL compatible 3D graphics. Players can enjoy a variety of six game modes: Mahjongg, Lines, Tetris, Blocks, Memory, and Concentration. The dynamic projected shadows and reflections add depth to the game, while features like shuffle, hint, undo, and redo enhance the gameplay experience.

Gamers can exert complete control over the game view, exploring over 50 layouts with the added ability to create custom layouts using the built-in editor. These layouts can be as complex as 16 levels high, incorporating up to 576 tiles. To elevate the auditory experience, the game includes a collection of MIDI classical music and numerous themes with different tiles, backgrounds, tables, and sounds.

When it comes to gameplay, the objective is to remove tiles in pairs. The tiles must be free—with no tile on top and at least one side open—to be eligible for removal. Identical tiles can be paired, except for those in the special Flower or Season families, where each tile is unique.

Free to download, 2010 Mahjongg promises hours of strategic play and creative layout design.
