...shows the real game, it's a gambling site but there you go. If you click the Learn The Game icon near the top left, it has a good run-through of basic gameplay. This is real mahjongg not the puzzle game.

Yes, as you hint, Ivory Mahjong is Taipei not mahjongg.

I'm a keen mahjongg player on or off PC. I have a couple of PC games but I don't know of any online versions. Most of the stuff you'll see around is nothing to do with mahjongg, it's called Taipei - the game or games where you have a stack of tiles and solve various puzzles. This has nothing to do with mahjongg but just uses the tiles.

Mahjongg is a 4-player game like poker, played with tiles originally made from ivory and bamboo, that resemble playing cards but are more durable. One day I'll scan in a set of mahjongg rules as they are very useful. There are some variants in the way the game is played, and especially, scored. I learnt from my uncle who lived in Singapore in the 1920's.

Not really traditional Mahjong, but I think this is what most have in mind anyway.

I suggest 'Ivory Mahjong'.
