Spiral Mahjong table: 136 tiles
One line of tiles winding in from the edge toward the middle, stacked two and three high. Following the line from its open end is the whole puzzle. It feels very different from the other large tables.

How it plays
67 of the 136 tiles sit on the bottom layer, and 69 are stacked above them; the top layer holds 4 tiles. Tiles you can see but cannot pick are underneath others, so the stacks are where the planning is. Every game is dealt so it can be finished, and you have hints, unlimited undo and a shuffle if you get stuck.
