The concept is very simple but the game itself is very complex with a lot of options. Basically there are black stones and white stones, and a grid. each intersection on the grid counts as territory. If you surround an intersection or series of contiguous intersections with stones then that is your territory. if you surround a stone or a contiguous series of stones with your own stones then you capture those stones. each intersection of territory is a point and each stone you capture is a point. diagonal doesn't count, you have to surround them vertically and horizontally so you cut off any lines going into that territory.
Here's a decent youtube series to get you started if you're interested.

interesting, thanks.
the kind of mahjong found on computers (and I assume phones) is often not the 'real' kind, but who knows, maybe you found a good app
