对战Hot Gimmick 3
Taisen Hot Gimmick 3 Digital Surfing is an arcade action game released in 1999 by Psikyo. The game is a competitive mahjong-based strip game, continuing the Hot Gimmick series with updated visuals and opponents. Players select from a roster of female characters and engage in mahjong matches against CPU or human opponents. Winning rounds causes opponents to progressively lose clothing, a core mechanic of the series. The game supports head-to-head two-player competition via linked arcade cabinets. Psikyo incorporated digitized photography for character presentations, giving the 1999 release a distinct look compared to earlier entries. Controls follow standard mahjong tile selection inputs, with players drawing, discarding, and declaring winning hands using the cabinet's button layout.
