Play Shanghai III (Japan) Online
Sliding mahjong tiles into place with that perfect *click*—before you know it, you're zoning out scanning for matching pairs like some ancient puzzle monk. The SNES makes those tile designs pop, especially the fantasy ones.
Shanghai III on the SNES is one of those games that sneaks up on you—what starts as a casual round of matching mahjong tiles turns into this weirdly satisfying puzzle loop. The tiles click into place with this nice little sound effect, and before long, you're scanning the board for the perfect pair like it's some kind of meditative ritual.
It’s got all the classic Shanghai vibes but with these gorgeous SNES-era tile designs—some are traditional, others have these intricate fantasy or nature themes. The music’s just the right level of calming, too. Not gonna lie, I got stuck on one of the later layouts for way longer than I’d like to admit. If you’ve ever lost an afternoon to solitaire or sudoku, this’ll hit the same spot.
Definitely a game for when you want to slow down and think, not mash buttons.
