### 2/5 — Not mah jong

*2026-06-23, version 1.9*

Now that we pay for this game I would expect better games. Instead you slam us with more advertising. How pathetic

### 3/5 — Impossible to win after a while

*2026-03-20, version 1.9*

At first it was great, I love the tiles and do not mind the repetition of the same games. After a while it was impossible to win and no way to change it. There would be 3 tiles that had no match at the end of the game. Needs to be fixed.

### 2/5 — Not Mahjong

*2025-12-08, version 1.9*

Mahjong rules don’t apply to this puzzle.

### 2/5 — 8 Boards

*2025-07-13, version 1.8*

Is there really only 8 boards in this one? I have never played or have seen a Mahjong game with only 8 layouts. Am I doing something wrong?

### 2/5 — Fraud

*2025-02-27*

The games don’t have the same matches so you can’t win period. I’ve documented it with quite a few pictures. Absolutely disgusting.

### 3/5 — Not my favorite

*2024-12-12, version 1.7*

If you like a challenge, you might enjoy this game. I find the tile designs and colors to be harder to read than other games like this. I play real Mah Jongg (the correct spelling) with a group and find solitaire MJ a relaxing way to learn tiles and sharpen my abilities. This game does not accomplish that for me—too much time trying to decipher which tile I’m looking at, and not enough visual separation of tiles.

### 2/5 — Mahjong Classic

*2024-12-07*

I prefer Mahjong Single

### 2/5 — Can’t complete a game

*2024-11-02, version 1.7*

I not only can’t win a game, I can’t complete one because the last 2 tiles have been different tiles…not a match.  It’s annoying playing games and not even after several shuffles not clear the board because the last two tiles aren’t a match anymore.  They used to be.  I’m ready to delete your app.

### 3/5 — Mah Jong Disappointment

*2024-09-20, version 1.7*

Thought I found a game I would like. Unfortunately not. I downloaded it to my phone and could hardly make out the tiles and symbols as I couldn’t read them. Tiles and design weren’t clear enough to read due to brown tiles and illegible designs and lack of contrast. Will be uninstalling the app.

### 1/5 — Werbung

*2024-02-21*

Bevor man überhaupt anfangen kann, muss ich mir schon OTTO Werbung ansehen und die Frechheit ist, dass man ewig oft oben aufs kreuzchen klicken kann und kommt trotzdem wieder in die werbeApp-nix für mich!!

### 1/5 — Tiles no pair

*2023-12-31, version 1.6*

Very frustrating to get to last few tiles and no matches. This is unacceptable and not fun.

### 1/5 — Missing tiles?

*2023-09-15*

Unacceptable. After upgrading to Pro, I could no longer get matching tiles. It’s like only one tile for many. Even trying to shuffle extreme amount of times and swap with no success. After all tiles were exposed there were matches. Do not recommend this app.

### 1/5 — Fraud

*2023-08-30*

The games don’t have the same matches so you can’t win period. I’ve documented it with quite a few pictures. Absolutely disgusting.

### 1/5 — App. Support is non existent

*2023-08-19, version 1.5*

I paid for the version to eliminate advertising. After playing approximately 20 games it has become impossible to clear the board because at the end there is always 6 different tiles left. I contacted the developer to explain the problem and requested assistance to correct the issue. I don’t think it is unreasonable to expect something you paid for to work correctly. It has been several months now since contacting the developer and as of yet have never received a response nor has the game been fixed. This developer is working hard to provide nothing so in response I am providing this information so you don’t get ripped off. I will be contacting Apple as I have an IPhone and hopefully they can find a way to make this developer refund everyone that has already been taken advantage of and either no longer provide a platform or keep the developer on an exceptionally short leash with exceptional rules specifically designed for developers that prove to be less than credible. Go find a better developer. This developer is Netviking AB, but unfortunately they are probably operating under several different names to so they can close down one app and open a new one without providing basic functionality.

### 1/5 — Mahjong classic

*2026-05-05, version 1.9*

I’ve had to delete the game 3 times because i run out of matches.  Think you guys need to get this fixed or i’m done.  Last chance for you.

### 1/5 — Fraud

*2025-11-30*

The games don’t have the same matches so you can’t win period. I’ve documented it with quite a few pictures. Absolutely disgusting. I’m going to send the information to the Danish embassy since you won’t do anything.

### 1/5 — Glitches?? Or malware

*2025-06-22, version 1.8*

I have had this app for over a year and used it a lot. A few days ago it started to display a pop-up when opening, with solicitation for downloading another Mahjong game. There is no ”X” I can find on the screen to close the window to continue playing. I have removed the and reloaded the app multiple times. Very frustrating.  I’m looking for another game.

### 1/5 — The Dev’s Have Lost Their Minds!!!

*2025-06-20, version 1.8*

The dev’s lost it on this one. I am getting ads after EVERY SINGLE TURN!! No, not after every game, it is AFTER EVERY SINGLE MOVE. This is just beyond crazy!! I match 2 pieces, I get an ad. Match 2 pieces, get an ad, match 2 pieces, get an ad. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

### 1/5 — Boring

*2025-06-14, version 1.8*

Only has 2 games to close from. Not very fun.

### 1/5 — The Deb’s Have Lost Their Minds!!!

*2025-06-02*

The dev’s lost it on this one. I am getting ads after EVERY SINGLE TURN!! No, not after every game, it is AFTER IVERY SINGLE MOVE.  This is just beyond crazy!! I match 2 pieces, I get an ad. Match 2 pieces, get an ad, match 2 pieces, get an ad. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

### 1/5 — Can’t Stand It

*2025-06-01, version 1.8*

Every time I make a move, a screen pops up wanting me to get a other game. I DONT WANT ANOTHER GAME!

### 1/5 — What Happened?

*2024-12-16, version 1.7*

I USED to enjoy playing this game until it got screwed up. No way to win, with the tile counts all messed up.

### 5/5 — Not fair

*2025-02-02, version 1.7*

I purchased the extra games and had access to all unlocked 8 games. I got a new phone and transferred all apps to my new phone. When I logged in I only have access to just the starter 2 games. I shouldn’t have to purchase the other games again when all I did was switch my phone. Not fair.

### 5/5 — Mahjong

*2024-10-07, version 1.7*

Enjoyed it fully. Fun and enjoyable.

Muy bueno

### 5/5 — Issue

*2023-07-13, version 1.5*

I love Majong!  However, I’ve run into a few games that weren’t solvable.  Meaning there were 18 tiles remaining and only three had pairs in the game.  I was able to see this after multiple shuffles!  Pretty frustrating and very disappointing!!  I won’t upgrade to Pro if the free games aren’t correctly solvable!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2023-07-01, version 1.5*

Great game!!!

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2023-04-29, version 1.5*
