It is truly addictive, but quite satisfying when playing on ones's own. If you enjoy Mahjong Solitaire, this adds extra dimension. ### 4/5 — Pretty fun *2016-05-22, version 1.3* I love mahjong games and this one was great, very challenging. I wish they had sound effects involved. Kinda boring without sounds. And adds were annoying ### 5/5 — Memory *2016-05-22, version 1.3* The colors are vivid which makes it easier to see. Keeps my mind sharp. I feel like I'm in competition with myself, always trying to beat my previous score. ### 5/5 — Very nice game *2016-05-22, version 1.3* This game is pretty good, with awesome animations and gameplay to support that. I just happened to learn how to play this game and was looking for a good app to play it on my phone. This is surely the app to go with. ### 5/5 — 5 stars for this great game. *2016-05-22, version 1.3* One of the best puzzle games i have ever downloaded and played. I have high opinion of the producer because they made this app so good, especially the sounds and the graphic. Thank you. ### 4/5 — Mahjong *2016-05-14, version 1.3* Love this game ! How come there isn't any music ?? ### 5/5 — Good Mahjong Game *2016-05-14, version 1.3* Really good collection of puzzles. If you get stuck on a puzzle or can't seem to win a particular puzzle there's a scramble key if you want to use it. I've been through the puzzles 3 times now and just starting again. There's a function where it counts your moves but I really don't see the need. ### 4/5 — Great game *2016-02-24, version 1.3* Love this game ### 5/5 — A great no stress game *2016-01-29, version 1.3* Many levels of fun! I spend hours playing. Each level presents thoughtful challenges! ### 5/5 — Super Fun *2015-12-29, version 1.3* Love the emojis😊 super fun ### 5/5 — Maravilloso juego *2015-12-01, version 1.3* Tengo muchos años jugando esta juego y no me canso, es espectacular!!!!! ### 5/5 — Love it! *2015-10-28, version 1.3* This is my go to when I'm bored lol love it! I wish it had more levels though but it's still a great time killer. ### 5/5 — Love!!! *2015-10-16, version 1.3* This is the best game ever!!!! I play it all the time! ### 5/5 — Nice one *2015-10-05, version 1.3* A must have game for training your brain ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Great game, but... *2019-02-05, version 1.3* All of a sudden I keep getting all kinds of pop ups. It’s so bad that I can’t currently can’t play the game. ### 1/5 — J *2016-02-02, version 1.3* Severely intrusive advertising spoils an otherwise good game ### 1/5 — Flashing ads annoy *2014-09-09, version 1.2* It's a game of concentration and free or not, flashing ads make this too hard to use. ### 2/5 — Definitely not for beginners *2016-05-24, version 1.3* The graphics are lovely and probably a lot of fun for experienced players. But there are no instructions for beginners. So I'd only recommend it if you already know how to play. Also, why is there a random little Tetris game at the beginning with no warning? There are already Amazon ads, there doesn't need to be anything else. ### 3/5 — Secure 12 *2022-04-08, version 1.3* WI like the app but the screen is only 1/2 of my phone screen. How do i enlarge the screen? ### 3/5 — Please fix *2018-05-28, version 1.3* Shortly after several games I started getting a black screen with a volume line at the bottom of the screen and a x on the top of the screen. I can’t play the game anymore it won’t let me.please let me know when it gets fixed l want to start playing again. Thankyou. Chuck ### 3/5 — Mahjong *2015-11-15, version 1.3* I love mahjong as it's fun & addicting but I don't like the war game ad between each level. ### 3/5 — Not bad *2015-09-24, version 1.3* I couldn't understand at once how to play. But later the game appeared to be fun. ### 3/5 — Liked the game but.... *2015-09-19, version 1.3* I really liked this game and I really don't mind ads but...when they don't just sit there but are flashing/blinking I find that very annoying. So, I'll be back when the ads quit doing that. Sorry...other than that it's a great game. ### 3/5 — This could a great game *2015-08-09, version 1.3* The annoying ads that keep flashing during the game make the a generous three. I would rather pay for the game without those annoying flashes and the misc other pop ups for other games. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Could the number be extended *2022-03-15, version 1.3* Love this game but why does it only go to 100 then back to 1 , even though it does I still keep playing!! ### 5/5 — Great👍👍👍 *2020-04-21, version 1.3* Like this very much. One of the best mahjong games. I also have the other version as well. Only one thing, will you be adding any more different tiles and backgrounds? Other than that a well made mahjong with challenging levels that keeps me from going round the bend🤪with Covid19 lockdown. Well done developers!!😄 ### 5/5 — Best mahjong *2016-05-29, version 1.3* I've been playing mahjong. I love this game. I play it very frequently. Graphics are good enough. Easy to play. ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2016-05-26, version 1.3* I can't believe I play this game for hours! Never played mahjong before and I found this emoji style more colorful and pleasant to the eyes. Great idea. Also I think it's a very good exercise for eyes and attention. ### 5/5 — Entertainment *2016-05-24, version 1.3* This game is a lot of fun. Good for the whole family! ### 5/5 — Mahjong Made Fun *2016-05-23, version 1.3* This is an awesome app for both beginner and advanced mahjong players. It is easy to use if you already know the rules and also easy to start playing if you are just starting out. I love the emojis on the tiles, really makes the app unique! Perfect for any age. ### 5/5 — Ok *2016-05-23, version 1.3* It is a kind of puzzle game. But the application has it's own original idea. Matching the images in such interesting way. The game with nice graphics work and good sound. ### 5/5 — Great game *2016-05-23, version 1.3* It's a good game that has yet to fail or crash on me. It works amazing and is very smooth. Although I would have liked an instruction or tutorial or something to help me along the way as I am a newbie. ### 5/5 — Such a good game to pass time *2016-05-23, version 1.3* I used this game during my lunch break at work and only looked up when the bell rang signaling that lunch was over. It is quite captivating and challenging enough to keep you on your toes. ### 5/5 — Quite addictive *2016-05-22, version 1.3* This is a pretty well made mahjong app. Felt really immersing playing it and didn't want to stop! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
