### 4/5 — Mahjongg Mystery

*2013-10-17, version 1.0.1*

New twist on the familiar game- fun!  Good way for kids to practice addition skills, too.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2013-08-27, version 1.0*

Keeps you on your toes!

### 4/5 — Worth getting

*2013-08-18, version 1.0*

An addictive little game. Good time filler.

### 4/5 — Old age

*2013-07-30, version 1.0*

Good quick fun.  Practice simple math.

### 4/5 — Maths is fun

*2013-07-27, version 1.0*

I never thought that doing my sums could be so much fun!

### 4/5 — Fun to play others

*2013-06-29, version 1.0*

I was "Absolutis" lost at first, but it is fun and fast!

### 4/5 — Fun game.

*2013-06-09, version 1.0*

Fun to play.

### 4/5 — Enjoyable but mind-numbing music!

*2013-06-03, version 1.0*

Ok

### 4/5 — Good

*2013-05-12, version 1.0*

It keeps thinking

### 4/5 — Fun

*2013-04-16, version 1.0*

My kids love this

### 3/5 — The ultimate fun addition practice..almost!

*2013-04-05*

I will immediately give this game 5 stars if you make more target numbers. Instead of adding to 10 every time, can you make the goal to add to 15 or 7 or 12....? I would pay $10 for this game if it had target numbers that went up to 20. And I'd pay $40 if the game also used subtraction, multiplication and division! It would end the days of forcing/bribing  my child to practice boring flash cards. You folks have a great START here...the game is ADDicting (haha), fun, visually attractive, great music, clear instructions, and motivating.  Give this app its full potential by adding the additional challenges I described and you will have an app that teachers and parents (and kids) will flock to (and pay for!) Go for it! I'll be eagerly waiting!

### 4/5 — Like it

### 1/5 — Restarting my old game

*2014-12-06*

I updated the app but I was not offered the option to start replaying where I left off.  The High Scores show me as MiMi with the hirghest score.  When I entered my name as MiMi it showed up as a new player with zero points.  Help!

### 1/5 — Cannot even rate this game

*2014-11-03, version 1.0.2*

Downloaded quickly, but all you get is a blank white screen with background sound music. Deleted as total waste of time. No game in sight to play

### 2/5 — Slow but good

*2013-09-21, version 1.0*

A bit slow on loading a new game but otherwise good

### 2/5 — Pretty ordinary

*2013-07-28, version 1.0*

I don't see what Mahjong has to do with it. This game doesn't use Mahjong tiles or resemble the real thing in any way. Okay, it makes you think a bit, but anyone who can count can play this.
I'm still looking for a real Mahjong app, not just the sort where you eliminate the thatching tiles. Give me a break!

### 2/5 — Not my favorite

*2012-04-04, version 1.0*

I thought this would be the more traditional mahjong but it isn't.

### 3/5 — Don’t download for iPad

*2022-10-02, version 1.6.3*

Great game but……… on level 15 the tiles disappear under the opponents board on the right if the screen on an iPad. You cant tap them to use them. No idea what happens after level 15 I can’t get any further!  Come on sort it out absolutist!

### 3/5 — Ok

*2013-06-15, version 1.0*

I like the game, but it is a little slow when subtracting the tiles you didn't match.

### 3/5 — Mahjong mystery

*2013-05-20, version 1.0*

Good game for young elementary students.  You can practice combinations of numbers that add up
 to 10 & 11.

### 3/5 — Majgong mysteries

*2013-05-08, version 1.0*

### 3/5 — It's ok

*2013-04-14, version 1.0*
