Dejiko no Mahjong Party

You can't have a party without mahjong!

Unadvertised Cross-Game Multiplayer Mode#

Dejiko no Mahjong Party is built off the same game engine as Broccoli's other mahjong games, Shinseiki Evangelion: Mahjong Hokan Keikaku and Kidou Senkan Nadesico Ruri-ruri Mahjong, sharing UIs, the majority of non-character-related graphics, and game systems.

Rumors surrounding the possibility of a Cross-Game link for multiplayer matches between these games existed through the 2000s, which in March 2015 Japanese Twitter user IkamanS2 demonstrated were in fact true.

Sound Test#

Game Genie code 091-D3F-F72 will start the game in a sound test.
