Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye is one of those classic Mahjong solitaire games that somehow feels right at home on the Genesis. You know the deal—match identical tiles to clear the board, but the layouts here are way more intricate than the usual freebie versions you find online. The "Dragon’s Eye" setup in particular is a beast, with this swirling pattern that looks cool but will absolutely wreck your strategy if you’re not careful.

What I like is how the controls feel surprisingly smooth for a Genesis puzzle game. No weird lag when selecting tiles, and the music’s got this chill, almost hypnotic vibe that keeps you glued to the screen. First time I played, I got stuck on the third layout for way too long because I kept overlooking pairs buried under overlapping tiles. Classic me.

If you’re into tile-matching games and miss that ‘90s console vibe, this one’s a solid pick. Just don’t blame me when you lose track of time.
