(Sorry to interrupt the unfettered spam this month but old habits die hard.) In the game Viewfinder (2023) there are seven collectible mahjong tiles in chapter 3 which are displayed on a table once found. viewfinder1.jpg There are also some references in notes and documents you find. :) viewfinder2....

In the video-game We Love Katamari (2005, remastered 2023) you roll a ball to pick up objects and make the ball bigger. There are hundreds of different objects, but some of the first are mahjong tiles. WLK1.jpg The collection menu gives descriptions for each type of item you've rolled. WLK2.jpg WLK3...
