Thank you for your interest in this cool game called Riichi!
We totally understand that learning a new boardgame could be exciting and challenging at the same time, and so we want to make sure You and Riichi are starting off on the right foot!
Riichi is a game of skill, luck, and also – wait for it – psychology! And so, good news, you DON’T need to be good at maths to be a skilled Riichi player.
Additionally, we want to create a space for people of all walks of life to comfortably learn and participate Riichi because it is everybody’s game.
We’ll teach you how to play the rules and read the tiles, and so even if you have absolutely zero experience with mahjong tiles, or you don’t read a speck of Japanese (or Chinese, for that matter), just come!
Also, we want to gather people who have less than 1.5 years of mahjong or Riichi-specific experience, or people who want to upgrade themselves because they are in Shodan or below OR Expert or below.
Trust me, after joining our boot camps repeatedly, Riichi (or even Mahjong in general) would be your go-to socializing board game.
This is a new project but we already have plans to make sure you get the supreme experience of Riichi even as a beginner!
Hope to see you there!
Yours,
E & Y
(This event is a space for beginners. For experienced players, please queue for the regular Riichi sessions on either Thursdays in the city and Saturdays in Boxhill. )
