About Lectio
LEXIO is based on the traditional Chinese game system of "Zheng Shangyou" – the climbing game – and is virtually the same game as Big Two (also known as Chinese Poker). Many other card games are based on the same mechanism (The Great Dalmuti, Gang of Four, Tichu, etc.), but LEXIO uses tiles similar to those in Mah Jong instead of cards, and they are of excellent construction.
