"Szechuan" (also knows as "Shanghai") is the famous chinese solitaire played with the mahjong 144 tiles. Claimed to be the oldest game with complex rules in the world's history, the starting patterns are well known, and some are traditionally inspired by certain animal's shapes.
You can notice the same pattern on screen in Wu Lung, and in several versions of this kind of game:

...and so on.
