Adversarial mahjong with teen styled cast, gameplay decent but the audience is very narrow. Polished presentation, but interest fades outside enthusiasts. A strange catalogue oddity.

Collector interest
An Aicom mahjong simulation in the narrative world of Jongmaster, where the player faces mythological opponents through a storyline, a Japanese exclusive on the Neo Geo CD. Its desirability rests on that marriage of mahjong and a quest plot, carried by the CD format for its voices and story, and its rarity as a niche title. Collectors seek it as a narrative curiosity specific to the format.
