### 3/5 — Used to be good

*2012-06-07*

The version of this before the may update was better. being able to time yourself is good, and there is no annoying music. But after the update it keeps resetting the high scores and the reshuffle just puts the tiles in a stupidly easy to match layout. So now there is no challenge.

### 3/5 — Update not good

*2012-05-29*

Since the update, the hint and undo do not work.  When there are no more moves, it doesn't let you know. This used to be a fun game. Still play but not as much as used to.

### 2/5 — Nice tile layouts but no zoom available

*2012-03-22*

It would be great if you could play it on an iPhone but it's just too small to be able to play.  There's no zoom available so there's no point in even trying to play it... It's really too bad :-(

### 1/5 — Stop the freaking Biden ads!

*2020-08-29*

I really enjoyed playing this game until the last week when all of a sudden up pops child molester & Presidential candidate Sleepy Joe Biden.   
Indoctrinate some one else. 
I won’t be back until after the election in November. 
Too bad. I didn’t mind you pushing other games on us but now politics on a game?  Nope. Won’t do it. 
Bad choice by the developers here...

### 1/5 — Freezes iPhone X

*2017-11-22*

Cannot get out of program in iPhone X. Disabled the up-swipe gesture to go to the menu. 
MAJOR BUG!!!!

### 1/5 — Mahjong

*2016-05-10*

I do not like the latest update! Use to be my favorite game, now I don't play it! Lousy set up!

### 1/5 — Update deletes high score upon installation

*2013-11-07, version 1.6*

Update deletes high score upon installation. 
Also when new tiles are exposed their graphics are poorly rendered, but become crisper and clearer within a few seconds.

### 1/5 — Mulder

*2012-10-24, version 1.4*

Would be better if you could change design of tiles

### 1/5 — Too small

*2012-06-05*

The graphics are too small-thank goodness I didn't pay for it cause it will be deleted-gave me a headache trying to see the tiles

### 2/5 — It plays ok but one problem...

*2019-02-14*

After clearing a board, the score then the menu comes up. But where's the PLAY or NEXT button? I clicked the SETTINGS ICON in the right top corner, and I got the next game. Really?
Also, there's no RESTART.
It's free, yeah, but there's better. I deleted it.

### 2/5 — Mahjong

*2014-11-13, version 1.8*

I have played this game many, many times over the past 15 months but won't be anymore, the ads are driving me mad when the game is over and want to start another.

### 2/5 — Problems since the update

*2012-06-11*

I love this app, but since the update it keeps resetting all the scores pretty much every day.

### 2/5 — Too distracting

*2012-04-27*

The ads are larger than the tiles and they move constantly. Kinda impossible to focus on the game. Really disappointing because up until then i was having fun with it.

### 5/5 — Well recommended

*2015-01-19, version 1.8*

Good game, lots of different shapes to try and adverts not over the top.
One I shall keep. Well done.

### 5/5 — Brilliant Mahjong..

*2013-06-14, version 1.4*

Keeps me quiet for hours.. Super app.... Big Five stars for this one ....

### 5/5 — Nice game!!!

*2013-03-21*

Nice game!!!

### 4/5 — I can't say it isn't fun to play

*2016-03-04*

I really appreciate it's free, and that it's a straightforward solitaire game without the extra fluff that plagues other mahjong solitaire games. The big problem for me is that not all the included combinations are solvable. I like to keep trying until I solve the configuration, but here I run into patterns that are layered in such a way that a solution is impossible. I keep thinking it can't be that hard to weed those out. So I'm asking the developers to do that. 

If you like to play the way I do, then Midnight Martian 3-d mahjong solitaire is your game.

### 4/5 — Ads

*2014-09-10*

How about an ad free version?

### 4/5 — mags

*2013-08-22, version 1.4*

I have played this game for a long time it's very slow it would be better in my opinion if there was music with it

### 4/5 — Seems to be fixed

*2012-11-03*

I haven't played long enough to judge the scoring problem, but I assume it's fixed since the hint and undo are working. This is a very busy interface. I appreciate the large characters, but it would be better if there were _some_ "white space" (in this case, beige) around the characters. The tiles could be a smidgen larger and the characters minimally smaller without sacrificing readability. As it is, it's overwhelming reading the packed board. Why would anyone try to play this on an iPhone? Instant headache, I'm sure!

### 3/5 — Good, but not as good as it was

*2016-04-18, version 2.0*

I was addicted to this excellent game ... then it was updated. Now the tiles seem less sensitive to tapping (or maybe just smaller) and sometimes move a little when touched, making it frustrating and impossible to get anywhere near my previous high scores (which have disappeared). Can't see the point of the added sound, but at least it is optional.

New users should still enjoy this game, but those who enjoyed the previous version may wish it hadn't been updated. If it ain't broke, ...
