		Think of Shanghai as "solitaire," and the game of Mah-Jongg as "Gin Rummy." Shanghai is a simple-to-learn but challenging-to-master solitaire game.
		Shanghai has been widely imitated and called (erroneously) "Mah Jong" which has led to a lot of confusion.

		There is also a new "rolling" Shanghai, in which the tiles are set up around four sides of a cube, and L and R rotates this construct.
		On a technical level, Shanghai is about as polished as you'd expect from a bottom-tier developer on this generation of the PlayStation.
