Shanghai for the Game Boy, released in 1989 by Sunsoft, brought the tile-matching puzzle game to Nintendo's handheld. It was one of many thoughtful, slower-paced titles that found a home on the system, offering a different kind of challenge from the action games that dominated the era.

You control a cursor to select matching pairs of Mahjong tiles from a pre-arranged, multi-layered layout. The main objective is to clear the entire board by removing all the tiles. The core mechanics involve scanning the board for pairs that are free, meaning they are not blocked on their left or right sides, and planning your moves carefully to avoid trapping tiles. The game requires patience and foresight, as a single wrong move can make the puzzle unsolvable. It feels like a quiet, methodical exercise in pattern recognition and spatial planning.
