About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for an extra dose of cuteness and strategy with Boba Mahjong Grande, a supercharged version of the acclaimed Boba Mahjong! Designed for 2 to 4 players, this game promises faster play, fresh strategies, and even more of that irresistible boba tea charm. New features include the vibrant Passion Fruit Tea suit, a streamlined scoreboard, and three exciting expansions that guarantee a delightful blend of tactics and flavor. Boba Mahjong Grande is a Mahjong-inspired card game, blending set collection with Rummy-style mechanics. Just like in traditional Mahjong where you draw tiles, here you draw two cards from the draw deck or pick a top card from one of the mixing piles, ensuring meaningful choices and strategic flexibility every turn. You can create up to three sets per turn (or up to two in a two-player or solo game), offering plenty of room for creative combos and strategic depth. Sets can be runs or three of a kind in any color, formed using three cards from your hand or two hand cards plus a top card from a mixing pile. This flexibility allows for powerful turns and more nuanced strategies, regardless of the player count. The clever twist in Boba Mahjong Grande comes after you create a set: you keep one of the cards as an ingredient for your final drink. Once any player collects ten or more ingredients, the round ends. Then comes the fun part! Each player selects their best six ingredients to craft the perfect boba tea, scoring points for freshness, smoothness, complexity, and presentation. It's a flavorful blend of planning and creativity as you decide which ingredients will make your ultimate drink shine!
