AWASE_TABLEconstant

THE RULES AT THE TABLE. Two to four players share one layout and take turns, each taking one pair of free tiles that match — the solitaire's own move. Every pair scores for whoever took it: the plain suit tiles one, the ones and nines two, a wind three, a dragon four (pairPoints), and a flower or season pair two and another turn. When the player to move has no pair to take, the tiles left are shuffled where they lie (as the solitaire's Shuffle does) and the same player goes on. The game ends when the layout is cleared, or when what is left cannot be freed by any shuffle; most points wins, and a tie shares it.

Why these rules: taking turns alone would be decided by counting — two players taking a pair each get half the pairs whatever they do. Pairs that are worth different amounts make every turn a choice between taking the dragon now and leaving the next player nothing good, which is a game of reading the whole layout. And everything is face up, so the device is passed with no cover screen: nothing is secret at this table.

Pure, like every rule here: each function returns a new table.

import { AWASE_TABLE } from "@johnmorrisdotca/jarajara/table";

const AWASE_TABLE: { readonly least: 2; readonly most: 4; readonly nameMost: 20; } = { least: 2, most: 4, nameMost: 20 } as const

import { AWASE_TABLE } from "@johnmorrisdotca/jarajara/table";
console.log(AWASE_TABLE);

{ least: 2, most: 4, nameMost: 20 }
