Shanghai III is a 1993 puzzle game released by SUNSOFT, the third entry in the popular Shanghai series. It adds a versus mode and other new features to the previous game, boosting fun and challenge.
In the game, players choose from various mahjong tile designs like dragons and tigers. The goal is to clear all mahjong tiles on the screen by matching pairs. A timer is included, so players must act fast to clear the whole screen within the time limit.
Shanghai III first launched on arcade platforms in 1993 and was later ported to multiple systems, including the Super Famicom (also known as the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, or SNES). It was developed by Kuusou Kagaku and published by SUNSOFT.
As a classic puzzle game, Shanghai III has attracted many players with its easy-to-learn rules and challenging gameplay. Both single-player and versus modes offer rich entertainment, making it one of the most beloved titles of its time.
