Free and you don’t have to watch ads!! ### 4/5 — Mahjong jewels *2026-03-11, version 2.33* I started to play this with my god niece and on the first or second level showed a tile with two guys holding hands we continued on noticing not seeing it again I couldn’t explain why they were holding hands she has special needs and anxiety ### 5/5 — Leisurely fun *2025-12-22, version 2.30* I have had this game for a decade and rejoice in the many clever tiles. I wish there were not so many flags, but other than that, it is a great game and good for my memory. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2025-11-21, version 2.29* This game is so great for memory n hand eye coordination.

However this game eats my battery and freezes on me all the time now. May have to find another game ### 4/5 — I LIKE THE GAME *2025-07-10, version 2.26* The most common type is the following three 3️⃣ types that have been found to have been used for different kinds and types in different species ### 5/5 — Je joue depuis plus 3 ans *2025-05-11, version 2.26* J’adore c’est relaxant merci ### 5/5 — Mahjong Jewels Solitaire *2025-04-14, version 2.25* Terrific to train short-medium term memory and strategy! Loads of fun! ### 5/5 — Hi *2024-10-22, version 2.25* Top game well worth playing thank you ### 2/5 — Game *2024-10-15, version 2.25* The game is to fast for me ### 5/5 — Loads of Fun *2024-10-01, version 2.25* Great! Best Majong App out there. I highly recommend!! Nice imagery that changes with each game, staying fresh. Can 'undo' moves & retry other tiles, so your not locked into a move. Anything by "Boy Howdy" is great & I highly recommend!! They are the best company out there! They always get back to you and take care of their players!! ### 5/5 — Fun game *2024-09-22, version 2.24* Yes, I really do enjoy mahjong, it keeps me occupied for hours. ### 5/5 — Mahjong *2024-08-19, version 2.24* It’s a great game but really hard! Maybe you can make it a little easier! Other than that it’s so fun and I love playing it with my family!🩷🩷 ### 5/5 — Better than foreign *2024-05-01, version 2.24* Better than foreign writing is the emojis you are familiar with. It is so much better. As the emoji get more added I hope it is added to the game. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Slow clunky amateur *2026-05-06, version 2.33* Clearly run by a computer that often freezes up daily. No customer support. Don’t recommend this dud. ### 1/5 — Don’t Like *2025-10-13, version 2.28* This costs points to play. Also ad on bottom of screen is distracting. ### 1/5 — Locks up my phone *2023-04-04, version 2.20* This game is a resource hog. The longer you play the more resources it uses. This makes my phone start to get warm and it eventually locks up. Takes several minutes to get it to restart. In software this is mostly caused my severe memory leaks. ### 1/5 — Mah-jong Jewels *2020-04-07, version 2.12* Le jeu est redondant. C’est toujours pareil. Pas de niveaux de difficulté. Fait 110 level sans aucun changement de forme de tableaux. ### 1/5 — Cansativo *2019-01-20* Os emoji sao muitos repetitivos , deviam ser mais variado. Pfv mude isso... ### 1/5 — Only got so I can have a cookie *2017-10-07, version 2.5* No seriously. In my family it's the next Pokemon go ### 1/5 — Pop ups *2016-10-07, version 2.2* What is it with all the google iPhone scam pop ups all of a sudden. I loved this game but now every few seconds all I get is ad pop ups ### 1/5 — Don't try this *2015-02-23, version 1.5* It is the worst excuse for a mahjong game I ever saw. It does not tell you if you have no more moves it is that stupid. The programmers apparently didn't have any skills or interest in the game. Now if you want to see an outstanding mahjong game, try Moonlight Lite. ### 1/5 — Bug: you get frozen *2013-10-13, version 1.2* Not able any more to click on the pairs after about 10 minutes regularly. You need to reload the game from AppStore ... Not a good one! ### 2/5 — Political ads *2024-10-20, version 2.25* It’s a game not a political forum Harris ad🤨 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game and great company *2026-08-13, version 2.35* Love this game - and so appreciate the exceptional customer service their staff provides! Something that really delivers and does not disappoint. ### 5/5 — Mah-jong jowells *2026-08-12, version 2.35* Je joue à tous les jours à ce jeu de mahajonkg ### 5/5 — Just as it states *2026-08-02, version 2.35* It’s great, no ads unless you’re stuck. It’s challenging and user friendly for those with sensory issues and conditions. I would recommend ### 5/5 — The Best! *2026-08-01, version 2.35* Always free! The best! 🌉🕊️🕊️🕊️ ### 5/5 — Mahjong Jewels! Solitaire *2026-07-16, version 2.35* Great to pass the time away! ❤️Feeling stressed Mahjong ?
