- WHAT IS MAH JONG for Windows?
-
- Mah Jongg for Windows is a high-tech simulation of the ancient
- Chinese game of Mah Jongg. Some historians date Mah Jongg back to the
- time of Confucius -- over 25 centuries ago!
-
- It's believed that sailors and fishermen played Mah Jongg as a
- diversion from the monotony of their long voyages. The game was
- originally played with cards, but eventually bone and bamboo tiles were
- substituted since these were less likely to be blown off the deck.
-
- Mah Jongg for Windows recreates the beauty and addictive pleasure
- of Mah Jongg, but uses modern data processing techniques and
- high-resolution graphics instead of bamboo tiles.
-
- In an attempt to make this game as elegant and as enjoyable as
- possible, the author has used some of the most advanced features of
- today's state-of-the-art MS-DOS computers. Not all PC computers are
- able to run Mah Jongg for Windows. But if yours can, prepare yourself
- for the meeting of the past and future!!!
-
-
- WHAT DO I NEED?
-
- Mah Jongg for Windows should run on any properly-equipped PC
- compatible which can run Windows in standard or enhanced mode.
-
- You will need at least a VGA-class graphics system (640x480
- resolution in 16 colors). However, for best results, I'd recommend
- Windows running in 256-color mode with a higher resolution graphics
- card (800x600 or 1024x768). Screens smaller than 800x600 will require
- the entire screen to display the Mah Jongg window. Furthermore, with
- only 16 colors, the tile colors will not be reproduced properly because
- of the way Windows' palette manager operates.
-
- A mouse is also required, but this shouldn't be a problem.
- Windows itself is virtually useless without one.
