Problem
Learning American Mahjong can be intimidating for newcomers due to complex rules, tile arrangements, scoring systems, and specific gameplay actions like the Charleston and wall‑push direction. Without clear, accessible guidance, new players may struggle to follow the game flow and enjoy the social experience.

The Guided Mat places visual reminders for key actions—such as the Charleston sequence, wall‑push direction, and joker usage—directly on the playing surface, reducing the need to recall rules mid‑game. Their step‑by‑step digital guide offers calm, paced lessons covering tiles, hand formation, scoring, and turn flow, with practice drills and strategy tips that can be paused and revisited. Complementary Table Cards present concise answers to the most common rule questions, allowing players to verify details instantly at the table. Together, these tools aim to lower the learning curve, boost confidence, and enhance the overall enjoyment of the game for both beginners and seasoned players.
