Today On Xbox Live Arcade: Funtown Mahjong

3:00AM January 29, 2009 | Mike Fahey

Xbox Live Arcade gets a healthy does of everyone’s favourite traditional Chinese tile game with the release of FunTown Mahjong, which gets a headstart on DLC right out of the gate.


FunTown Mahjong combines the fun and addictiveness of the ancient Chinese tile game with all the modern bells and whistles, including Xbox Live online play, leaderboards, and tons of game variations. You can purchase the full game for 800 points, and then slap down an additional 160 points for the Chinese Festival pack, which allows you to play in a temple during the Chinese New Year. You know, for luck.

Of course the best part of any video game version of Mahjong? Not having to set up the damn tiles yourself.

    Hmm, tempting… I only know the Japanese rules though (taught myself when playing a PSP mahjong game).
