About Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye

Shanghai II: Dragon's Eye is a tile-matching game where players clear mahjong tiles by selecting identical pairs. The game is part of a series originally developed by Activision.

It includes multiple tile sets and patterns, with some designs based on the Chinese zodiac. A layout editor is provided for creating custom patterns.

A distinct two-player mode called Dragon's Eye is also featured. In this variant, opponents take alternating turns, with one player aiming to clear the board and the other strategically placing tiles to block progress, creating a challenging competitive dynamic.
