Set validity comes from shared semantic tags rather than visual matching.
Emoji Mahjong
Mahjong, but matched by meaning.
Game design · Full-stack
Problem
A multiplayer tile game where emoji are matched by their semantic tags rather than their faces. Players draft from a shared market and find unexpected semantic sets.
What I built
The game turns fuzzy semantic relationships into deterministic multiplayer rules and a synchronized web interaction.
Evidence
Multiplayer state synchronizes a shared market and player hands.
