■Embrace the challenge of “real” mahjong

(1) Authentic texture of tiles

The mahjong tiles feature intricate details, including realism in transparency, light reflection, and light transmission.

(2) Accurate tile arrangement reproduction

Experience realistic gameplay, where the discarded tiles slightly shift upon hitting.

(3) Offers both automatic and “manual tiles”

Players can manually arrange their hand tiles, allowing for strategic gameplay focused on tile arrangement.

(4) Research on fully automated tables

A simulation of a fully automatic table is implemented to replicate tile distribution biases.

This system uses two sets of tiles to ensure that previous games subtly influence the upcoming one.

(5) Sounds recorded from real tiles

Immerse yourself in realistic auditory experiences, including the sounds of tiles clashing and the operation of the table.

(6) Simple production style

The design avoids flashy displays, enabling players to focus entirely on the game.

(7) Competitive gaming environment unique to paid formats

While entry requires payment, finishing in first place allows you to play for free, adding excitement to each match.

Please relish the attention to “realism” that Maru-Jan emphasizes.

■Mahjong AI “KIRIN”

The AI evaluates the tiles, translates them into various numerical values, and recommends the best possible plays.

For its learning, the AI is trained using data exclusively from elite mahjong players within the top 0.008% of Maru-Jan's vast community, possessing an average finishing order of 2.30 or lower.

■Sound settings to maintain tile secrecy

This app features a first-of-its-kind capability to specify sounds for different actions, such as 1 cry, 2 sounds, and red-only sounds.

All participants’ results are recorded in the set table, simulating the feeling of hosting a mahjong tournament from home.
