The end product of a short interactive moment led by me. Three other Asian students and I mixed the tiles together, then stacked them to replicate the start of a mahjong game.

People are welcome to touch, but if they do not know the rules of mahjong, it can become messy.

I consider the tiles themselves to be another piece called "彎的" which is traditional Chinese for "bent".

The tiles arranged in the solved puzzle formation, however, it is challenging to solve unless I provide this image.
