This mediocre variant of the classic Chinese tile game mah-jongg presents players with stacks of colored tiles, each decorated with one of several shapes. The object of Black Dragon is to remove the topmost tiles four at a time, matching shapes and colors whenever possible. The game awards bonus points for snagging four black dragons or four orange frogs. That's about it. You can select from several game boards, and minimal graphics and sound effects dress up the gameplay a bit. A gong signals the start of a game. A surly-looking dragon behind the board rolls his eyes and snorts at good moves. Frustratingly, the nonregistered version of the game lets you remove only 28 tiles, not nearly enough to finish a round. Adding insult to injury, the game slaps a shortcut on your desktop without asking. There are better tile games out there. Pass this one by.

Developer’s Description

Advance through the levels of the dragon's lair with careful planning and luck.
Welcome to the dragon`s lair. The game consists of 15 layouts and it is played like mah-jongg (the online version only has nine levels). Every game will present a new challenge. Careful planning and some luck are needed to take the high score. Black Dragon is played with 20 tiles that are set up on the playing board of your choosing, all you have to do is remove them in sets of four. Try to match the sets by color, symbol, or both. Achieve bonus points for removing four orange frogs or four black dragons. The more sets you remove that match in both color and symbol will increase your strength and thus increase your score. Here`s a helpful hint, study the tiles to learn how the edges are colored, and you will be able to plan your attack in a much more organized fashion. You can set a high score in every board layout.
