Play Shinseiki Evangelion - Mahjong Hokan Keikaku (Japan) Online

Mahjong with Evangelion characters judging your every move—those tiny GBC sprites of Rei and Asuka somehow make pulling tiles way more intense. Still classic mahjong rules, but now you’re sweating over combos while that creepy NERV soundtrack plays.

Game Overview

Okay, so imagine this: you're playing mahjong, but instead of some stuffy parlor backdrop, you've got Rei, Asuka, and Shinji watching your every move from a chunky little Game Boy Color screen. Shinseiki Evangelion - Mahjong Hokan Keikaku is exactly as weird and wonderful as that sounds.

The tiles clack satisfyingly as you play, and the pixel art nails that late '90s anime vibe—like someone mashed up a mahjong parlor with NERV HQ. It’s still proper mahjong at its core (none of those simplified mobile game rules), but the Evangelion flavor makes even losing a hand feel dramatic. I mean, when’s the last time you felt existential dread over a discarded bamboo tile?

Honestly, half the fun is spotting all the little Evangelion references tucked in there. The music’s got that eerie synth feel, and the character portraits shift expressions when you’re on a winning streak. It’s niche, sure, but if you’ve got a soft spot for either mahjong or Eva’s brand of melodrama, this weird little cartridge is worth digging up.
