Coins pay a fixed game entry fee; wins and losses change competitive points, not coins. Diamonds pay for private rooms. Virtual items and points cannot be cashed out or exchanged for prizes.

Open Friends rooms in the lobby, choose a game and length, then confirm to create a room with a six-digit code. Copy the code or share an invitation. Friends select Join room and enter the six digits; the game is selected automatically. Invitation links also work. A new room waits for players to join and ready up before starting. Check the confirmation screen for fees and charging rules.

Reconnect with the same account and follow the lobby or table prompts to resume an ongoing game. Returning to the lobby or closing the app does not pause play; repeated missed turns may enable autoplay. If a between-hand or settlement countdown has expired, the game may have ended and you will need to enter again.

Available packs, payment methods and rewards depend on what the game offers on your current platform. Coins pay participation fees; diamonds support features such as private rooms. Daily check-in prompts you when a reward is available. Review the item and total before buying.

Mahjong has many local variations. These guides describe this game’s rulesets. Check the room options and settlement breakdown for the table you join.

Points use each variant’s net score multiplied by the tier base, with a per-match net cap; capped results scale together so gains equal losses. Competitive points can rise or fall, including below zero. Rank advances or falls through stars, based on the final net score for the whole match; settlement shows your rank change. Separate leaderboards compare competitive points and rank stars, not coin balances. See the room tier for current entry requirements.

All five variants provide wait analysis and discard suggestions under their own rules. After drawing, check which discards leave you ready and which tiles would complete the hand. Remaining counts use your own tiles and visible table tiles; they do not show how many are actually left in the wall. Suggestions do not guarantee a win or replace your judgment.

Refreshing the lobby or table preserves a valid web session. You may need to sign in after the session expires or when reopening the game. The app and Telegram Mini App retain sign-in by default. Always sign out after using a shared device.

Enable autoplay at the table, or it may activate after repeated action timeouts. It uses discard suggestions and takes available winning, kong, pung or chow actions according to the current ruleset. Your avatar shows the status to everyone at the table. Cancel autoplay to take control again. It does not guarantee a win.

Coin rooms do not automatically start a new game after settlement: select Next game to continue. In a multi-hand game, follow the between-hand prompts to continue the current match. Private rooms still use their ready and member-confirmation flow. Closing settlement only returns to the table and does not reset the waiting countdown; follow the prompt to return to the lobby when it expires.

An ongoing game can still be resumed from the lobby and is not paused. After a hand ends in a coin room, confirming that you want to end the match and return settles the completed hands and ends the match. Leaving a private room for the lobby does not dissolve it; use the dissolution vote to end it deliberately. Rooms also end waiting according to their timeout rules if nobody continues.

Use table settings to adjust sound effects, music, tile-call language and volume, and try the voice preview. Calls use the acting player’s profile gender, set in the lobby profile; an unset gender uses the female voice. Some dialects currently share one voice. The interface follows your system language unless you choose a language yourself.
