A 13-tile preset tuned for the Malaysian table. Identical setup to HK and SG here — the differences live in atmosphere, table-talk and house customs more than in the engine rules.

Section 01 · The deal
Each player gets 13 tiles.
Malaysia uses the standard 13-tile hand. You'll build four melds plus a pair to win,
drawing a 14th tile to complete it.
Section 02 · The melds
Three ways to make a set.
These are the building blocks of every winning hand. Same in all four regions.
Chow · 吃
Run · Same suit
Three consecutive numbers in the same suit. Only claimable from the player on your left.
🀓
🀔
🀕
Pung · 碰
Triplet · Identical
Three identical tiles. You may claim a discard from any player.
🀟
🀟
🀟
Kong · 槓
Quartet · Identical
Four identical tiles. After declaring, draw a replacement tile from the wall.

Pair · 對
The eyes
Two identical tiles. Every winning hand needs exactly one pair as its "eyes".

🀄
Section 03 · Claim priority
When two players want the same tile.
Multiple players can claim a discard. The engine resolves them in this order — same for all four regions.

Chow
Multiple winners on the same discard are allowed — if two or more players can declare a win from
one tile, all of them score.
Section 04 · Winning
A complete hand needs melds + a pair.
In Malaysia, that's 4 melds + 1 pair = 14 tiles when you win.
You can also win on Seven Pairs (七對).
Either by drawing your winning tile yourself (zimo / 自摸), or by claiming a tile someone discards.

A pair on its own isn't a meld — you still need 4 of them plus this pair to declare.
