Shanghai An implementation of the solitaire mahjongg game, as popularised by Activision's Shanghai, Paul Burgin's Shanghai requires you to eliminate all the mahjongg tiles from the screen by finding matching pairs, though only tiles on the outer edges can be matched up, which requires a lot of planning ahead and good memory. Monochrome graphics are used to display the tiles, and the game is terminated when no more matching tiles can be found. Unlike some other implementations of this game, only one layout is available.
