I do not like the fact that it takes so long to get another game up after one is completed. I see no place to get it going again. If there is a secret I wish someone would let me in on it. ### 2/5 — Pop up ads distraction *2018-10-06, version 1.0.2* The new version is very distracting with so many pop up ads and it’s very annoying. I love playing this game but I’m becoming frustrated every time I’m ready to make a move and an ad pops up. Change the frequency of the ads. I’m not interested in them. ### 3/5 — Ads😡 *2018-10-05, version 1.0.2* Since the software update,, now an add for another game I’m not in the least bit interested in, suddenly pops up right in the middle of the game. Very irritating and breaks your concentration. I may just delete this game. ### 4/5 — Ads *2016-05-18, version 1.0.2* Get rid of these freaking ADS. ### 2/5 — Stats do NOT work *2016-01-13, version 1.0.2* The game is great. But I paid for the stats functionality and it does NOT work! Stats are stuck on 1 game played, 2 games won for 200% won - that does not compute. 4 stars for the game, 2 stars for the purchased modules. ### 4/5 — Original Mahjong *2015-07-27, version 1.0.2* Love the simplicity of the game, but wish there was an "undo last move button". 😁 ### 4/5 — Good game *2015-07-11, version 1.0.2* I love mahjong and this game is pretty good. I like that it works in landscape and portrait orientation on the iPhone. The biggest drawback is the absence of background music. This fact influences the gameplay for me. ### 3/5 — Awesome work! *2015-07-11, version 1.0.2* This application has good interface and design, but the adverts are the disappointed part. Waiting for an ad-ons free version.Thanks. ### 3/5 — It's okay *2015-07-11, version 1.0.2* I do love mahjong but this app has too many ads. Need to reduce those! ### 3/5 — Took too long to load *2015-07-11, version 1.0.2* I couldn't get the app to load. It took a while, and sadly I wanted to try it out. ### 5/5 — Mrs *2015-07-09, version 1.0.2* Best game EVER! Love it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too large *2024-01-27, version 1.0.2* Love the game but can’t play it, the sides of the puzzles are cut off so it can’t be played right. ### 1/5 — Ads *2020-11-29, version 1.0.2* The ads that pop up every time you start a new game are extremely annoying. I will be deleting this app. ### 1/5 — Offensive advertising *2019-10-14, version 1.0.2* I am accustomed to being exposed to advertising that supports free games, but I was truly disappointed and surprised to be subjected just now to the lewd graphic images that accompany an add for an “adult game.” Please be more sensitive! ### 1/5 — Un-winnable *2018-11-26, version 1.0.2* You can’t even win if you use “show moves”. Why don’t you fix it? ### 1/5 — 1 *2018-10-08, version 1.0.2* Constantly interrupting the game for an advertisement. ### 1/5 — Worthless waste of time & money *2016-07-17, version 1.0.2* This P.O.S. is frustrating and un winnable the only reason I gave this thing one star is I had to so I could warn you off. Just to be fair I paid extra for the statistics in order to track gameplay I've played the game on and off about one year with an impressive 44% win rate. So if you enjoy loosing this app is perfect. If you buy this buy the statistics track your game play and write a fair review. ### 1/5 — Ads *2016-02-10, version 1.0.2* What is up! I already paid for ads free play and you're charging me again! This is not cool . Good game except for the ads. Make it right. ### 1/5 — Get rid of the advertisements, PLEASE! *2015-07-09, version 1.0.2* I am so disappointed. Been waiting and waiting for this app as I LOVE the online version. Alas at the end of each game I am trapped watching ridiculous videos of childish games in which I have ZERO interest, with no way to close them until they are over. I will GLADLY pay for a version of this mahjong without the adverts but until that comes out, I am done playing. ### 1/5 — One level *2015-05-31, version 1.0.0* I was looking forward to this but I have to keep playing same level, that's all I got. Is that it? ### 2/5 — Good game, but… *2021-08-28, version 1.0.2* This version of the Mahjong tiles game is by far the most difficult. I feel like it’s testing our frustration levels. I like to figure out how to win each game. Being that there are duplicated character tiles on top of each other, I think there should be a viewing ability to see what’s underneath each set of tiles. I would like to see a replay of the same game, to see what I can remember from the previous game played. Each game should be numbered, so I have a record of the games played. With these additional features I would have rated this game five stars. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing original mahjong *2025-11-16, version 1.0.2* It is really fun and easy ### 5/5 — Perfect *2023-09-22, version 1.0.2* Tests your brain ### 5/5 — It’s great - don’t understand the complaints *2018-10-08, version 1.0.2* This is a REALLY great version of Mahjong and is the same as the popular Free Mahjong website which I’ve played and enjoyed for years. I’m thrilled I can now get it on my iPad! I don’t understand why people are complaining about ads on a free app that offers a ‘Remove Ads’ feature for a small fee. Or because it’s ‘difficult’. How are the people who made it expected to be rewarded? At least with the app you can remove the ads, unlike the website, and the difficulty is part of the charm, and always has been. Don’t listen to the negativity, if you like the website version, you’ll love this version too. ### 5/5 — Great game!! *2016-05-29, version 1.0.2* I really loves this game! Could do with no adds though!! ### 5/5 — Designer1 *2015-11-28, version 1.0.2* Good app. Works well. ### 5/5 — ad ends quick *2015-11-24, version 1.0.2* Great app. Did hate the ads but it's changed now. Can play with less interruption 🤓 ### 5/5 — Challenging and fun *2015-11-03, version 1.0.2* Really like it. Good way to pass 5 or so minutes. ### 5/5 — GREAT APP *2015-07-12, version 1.0.2* This is an excellent game which tests your knowledge and skills. Great graphics and wonderful gameplay.
