How to play Mahjong Cop Ryuu - Shiro Ookami no Yabou online

Mahjong Cop Ryuu is entirely in Japanese, so navigating menus requires some familiarity with the language or trial and error. After the title screen, pressing Start brings up a menu where you can select a case. Each case presents a series of mahjong matches against AI opponents. The core loop involves reading the board, forming melds, and declaring a winning hand before your opponent does. If you are new to mahjong, focus on understanding the basic hand composition: four sets and a pair. The game uses standard Japanese riichi mahjong rules, but without complicated scoring if you just want to progress. Winning a match advances the story, and losing may require retrying. Pay attention to the dora indicator for bonus points. The detective theme is mostly cosmetic, so treat it as a straightforward mahjong simulator with a narrative wrapper.
