In either mode, players are given gems which worth 30VPs (Victory Points)to start with. A game is played over 4 rounds. In each round, players collect and discard Mahjong cards to make a winning hand with a certain pattern. The first player who completes a winning hand wins the round and gains VP gems from other players according to the level of rarity of the pattern. The player with the most VPs after the last round is the winner. —description from the designer
