I've been hearing about Mahjong a lot since my childhood, but I wasn't able to learn anything about it before, except that it is a kind of gambling. Only recently did I learn a bit about it when I saw a streamer playing a Mahjong slot game.
Here in our country, it is illegal to use Mahjong as a form of gambling, however it is allowed to be played if just for leisure and/or played in house.
I have played it many times not on gambling platforms but on my system in my childhood days ans sometimes whenever I feel like breaking some tiles I play it but why it's ban in your country or gambling is prohibited there? I don't find anything unusual about it that particularly it would be blocked by any region but there could be any reasons for it.
