Mahjong xd
I watched so many TVB dramas with these 4 women playing it and winning a load of money, that sometimes their husbands scream at them for losing all their money xd

It seems like a complicated game, and my dad got a bag of Mahjong cube thingies in my room, and a Mahjong table behind out sofa o_O
