Rettou Juudan Nekkyoku Janshi - Higashi Nippon Hen is a 1988 arcade action game developed by Video System Co. The title translates roughly to 'Fierce Mahjong Player Crossing the Islands - East Japan Edition,' and the game centers on mahjong-based gameplay with an action framing set across eastern Japan. Players compete in mahjong matches against a series of opponents, progressing through regional stages representing different areas of eastern Japan. The single-player format pits the player against CPU-controlled rivals, with each victory advancing the story. Video System Co. built the game around competitive mahjong rules, and the arcade cabinet format meant players inserted coins to challenge a lineup of increasingly difficult opponents across the regional map structure.
