Now make it _real_ mahjong (; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahjong
Which makes me wonder which ruleset would be the easiest to implement. Probably MCR or HK, riichi has too many edge cases and sepcial rules and yakus.

Riichi is the fun one, where skill weights over luck.
I also prefer riichi. Furiten is such a game changer, all other rulesets feel a bit less after that
Riichi is a good candidate for a video game due to all the specific rules. It has a lot of room for QoL. I have an app on my phone [1] that has made it fun to play and learn thanks to the guidance it has with the rules

I've been looking for a free one with really good helper UI to keep track of all the rules.

Riichi is the most fun one, in my opinion, but I would not go so far as to say "skill weights over luck". The absolute best Riichi players win less than 25% of hands.
