Mahjong 88 Slot Breaks New Ground

The latest release from Play’n GO breaks new ground, not only for the company which developed it but also for the many players who are sure to be captivated by it. The new title is called Mahjong 88, and what makes it special is the fact that it is the first eight-by-eight grid slot from Play’n GO. It is also one which is based on the popular Mahjong tile game, providing an experience which is as deeply engaging as it is relaxing.

Mahjong Made Easy

Like chess, the classic game of Mahjong isn’t particularly difficult to learn, but it does take a lifetime to master, and the beauty of Mahjong 88 is that it allows players to enjoy the essence of the classic game without any of the cerebral effort.

When you launch this title you will be presented by an eight-by-eight grid that is filled with Mahjong tiles, all of which are beautifully designed and should be instantly familiar to anyone who has played the classic tile game. These tiles serve as the game symbols, and when you get a winning combination the symbols involved are removed and replaced by new ones, making it possible for new winning combinations to be made.

The number of winning symbols you get in any given turn of the game are used to charge a Fortune Frog. Get 33 winning symbols in one turn and you will activate this lucky creature, which will unlock one special feature at random. Get 88 winning symbols in one turn and you will super charge the Fortune Frog, which multiplies your wins by five times.

A Game for All Seasons

Mahjong 88 features four Season Wilds, and as you play the game you will progress through the seasons of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Each season has its own unique atmosphere and soundtrack, as well as its own Season Wild which works according to its own unique rules. This adds a great deal of longevity to an already satisfying game, and successfully proceeding from one season to another provides a genuine sense of achievement.

Designed for Authenticity

"We’re very proud of what we have created here with Mahjong 88", said Johan Törnqvist, who is CEO at Play’n GO. "Not only is it our very first 8x8 grid slot, but we carefully curated the design to add a rich authenticity to the Mah-jong based theme. It’s no secret that we’re going to be putting out a high number of games this year, and this is just one example of the high quality and innovation that every single title will carry."

Relax and Grow Rich?

Playing Mahjong 88 is a soothing and refreshing experience which is worth doing for the relaxation benefits alone. Fortunately, there is also plenty of cash to be won at the same time, so visit Rizk Casino or any other venue which offers Play’n GO titles to see if you might be able to relax and grow rich!
