About

Mactaipei is a 1998 Macintosh implementation of the classic Shanghai-style mahjong solitaire by F. Bruekelman, cataloged on Macintosh Garden as a Shanghai clone and asking the player to clear a stacked layout of mahjong tiles by patiently matching free pairs until the board is empty.How it playsThe familiar Shanghai rules apply: only tiles with no neighbor on the left or right and nothing stacked above are eligible for selection, and the goal is to find matching pairs until every tile has been removed.Style and presentationThe build follows the period convention for Mac mahjong solitaire, using a top-down view of the tile pyramid rendered for the black-and-white and early color Mac desktop.LineageDescribed on Macintosh Garden as a Shanghai clone, Mactaipei sits in a long line of free and shareware Mac takes on the layout popularized by Activision's Shanghai in the late 1980s.
