Can’t you just charge more and thank you for offer what other games do? Reshuffle, undo pause game, etc? I love the game, but it has become too expensive to play. How do I get the extra time I paid for? ### 4/5 — Telecom *2026-02-15, version 1.4* This is a very good relaxing detergent release of my daily rigors of my day . . !!! ### 4/5 — Stan’s Review: *2023-01-20, version 1.1* My wife got me started on the 1000 tile Majhong program, got hooked and could not stop. I did that during boring tv shows, and now I have started this. It is different but similar and very colorful with different tiles. Makes it fun to do and I am having to learn how to maneuver around in it. ### 3/5 — Game review *2022-11-27, version 1.1* So far so good! ### 5/5 — Love!! *2022-07-31, version 1.1* I love the the timer personally. I love a game with a challenge. No ads, just endless play. If you’re cool with that be carefully. I made it to level 40 in less than a week. In other words it’s addicting! ### 4/5 — Not paying for hints *2022-07-11, version 1.0* I recognize these games need a source of revenue and watch the endless commercials on most, but charging for hints is ridiculous as is paying to shuffle. Furthermore, to spend time on game and Then find out there is no more playable tiles is just annoying. I’m deleting this game and moving on to another ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Mahjong West *2025-10-14, version 1.4* I downloaded this game approx. 3 weeks ago. Played it and needed more titles. I purchased the $4.99 titles and yet to see what I purchased. The games is strategic made to lock in and purchase titles. I would never purchase or download again. My opinion is this game is without honest description. I am now deleting this impossible game I don’t know who would give this game 5 stars.?….. ### 1/5 — Mahjong West *2025-10-05* I downloaded this game approx. 3 weeks ago. Played it and needed more titles. I purchased the $4.99 titles and yet to see what I purchased. The games is strategic made to lock in and purchase titles. I would never purchase or download again. My opinion is this game is without honest description. ### 1/5 — Don’t like the timer *2024-03-31, version 1.1* Should have an option to for leisurely play without the timer. This is just a scam for you to pay for extra time and other functions. ### 1/5 — Instructions? *2023-07-21, version 1.1* I’m a missing something? Can’t seem to find any instructions or information on playing this game. ### 2/5 — Keeps freezing *2023-01-06, version 1.1* Like the game but it keeps freezing so I delete it and then I keep downloading it and then deleting it. It’s not very fun but it’s the only way that I can play it. ### 2/5 — Top notch mahjong. *2022-09-27, version 1.1* So why a rating of 2.5? Because after 137 games of the most challenging mahjong I’ve ever played I am convinced I am blocked from progressing forward without paying. No matter how fast I do puzzle 138, it times out first or it can’t be finished. I believe it has been programmed to that purpose and I deeply resent it! I may delete it now or wait a time, try again and then delete it. I just want to let those who made the game to know how I feel about it. It is the best mahjong game I’ve ever played but I don’t appreciate extortion. ### 2/5 — Too many extra charges *2022-07-27, version 1.0* What a rip-off. No player options, plus you have to pay extra for normal features, like “undo”. No ability to adjust timer-again without another payment. You ruined a great game. ### 2/5 — Can’t turn off timer *2022-07-22, version 1.0* I like the game but you can’t turn off the timer. I hate that. And you have to pay for things like show me the times that match, undo etc that most games have. I’d rather pay and have these fetuses than a free game that is annoying ### 2/5 — Cannot turn off timer *2022-07-17, version 1.0* Automatically ends game after a preset time. This cannot be disabled. I do not need a game with stress. Deleted. ### 3/5 — Paid for extra time 7 days ago *2025-09-26, version 1.4* The extra time I paid for does not show up on game. Can’t you just charge more and offer what other games do? Reshuffle, undo pause game, etc? I love the game, but it has become too expensive to play. How do I get the extra time I paid for? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game I play everyday *2025-12-14, version 1.4* I’m totally in love with this game ### 5/5 — Slow down time *2025-10-21, version 1.4* Very relaxing for me in the evenings. ### 5/5 — Great Game *2025-09-19, version 1.4* Good challenge and gives one’s mind stimulation ### 5/5 — Mahjong West *2024-05-26, version 1.1* Very relaxing game with absolutely no glitches or problems.
