The Game Menu

The Game menu lets you control the status of the current game:

Game->New (Ctrl+N): Finishes the current game and starts a new session with new tiles.
Game->Restart Game (F5): Restarts the current game with the same tiles.
Game->Pause (P): Pauses the game, especially the timer which affects the scoring. The menu entry is also used for resuming the game.
Game->Show High Scores (Ctrl+H): Shows your top ten charts of Shisen-Sho.
Game->Quit (Ctrl+Q): Quits Shisen-Sho.

Some of the menu items can also be controlled by keyboard shortcuts. See the section called “Default Key Bindings” for a list.
