Then you have to start over from the beginning of a game again. And when it says replay, do they mean play a new game? And I have eliminated all the tiles and had it say replay or something else I can’t remember what it was. But you wanna play a new game you don’t wanna replay the old game ### 4/5 — Beaucoup de concentration *2026-06-29, version 2.12.24* Difficile mais agréable ### 4/5 — Scoring??? *2026-06-04, version 2.12.24* Addicted. Love the challenge but I don’t get the scoring. My score is never higher then then maximum score. Is that based on timing or number of moves. Or what??? I can’t find any information about scoring. ### 4/5 — 好玩 *2026-02-17, version 2.12.24* 希望色彩鮮豔一些較容易辨別 ### 2/5 — Lies *2026-02-02, version 2.12.24* Lies about no more moves left ### 3/5 — Mise de calcul des points *2025-12-18, version 2.12.24* Impossible de s’améliorer sans connaître les règles de calcul. Comme beaucoup d’autres, Je ne garderais pas ce jeu si je ne connais les règles ### 3/5 — Imparfait *2025-12-03, version 2.12.24* Jeu original et addictif. Seul problème : on ne sait rien de la façon dont le score est calculé. Donc impossible de s’améliorer. Même si on termine le jeu en enlevant toutes les tuiles, il n’y a pas de récompense bonus. L’interface est de plus vraiment très pauvre. ### 5/5 — Love love love this game!! *2025-11-22, version 2.12.24* Absolutely love it. It’s our relaxing time just before going to bed. My husband and I play a few rounds. ### 5/5 — Ms *2025-11-09* Really keeps your mind thinking enjoy games like these. Love this game I could play it all day. Best ever.

Still enjoying this game so much. Very challenging. ### 5/5 — Very challenging! *2025-10-10, version 2.12.22* I was looking for something that could make me think about a problem. Then I found this game. Definitely not mindless! Great if you want to make your mind work. It is totally doable, just be patient! ### 5/5 — Boss *2025-10-08, version 2.12.22* Loved it ### 5/5 — So Challenging *2025-09-26* Since my last review when I won 2 games in a row, I have now won around 16 games in a couple of weeks and I am 77 yrs. Old and I am addicted to this game!!! **Developer response:** Great, it is quite impressive to win two games in a row since myself needs some effort to achieve that and the high score. In addition, thank you so much for your positive feedback. It is a great encouragement to me as an individual developer to keep going with push mahjong development and maintenance :) ### 5/5 — So Challenging *2025-09-20* Since my last review when I won 2 games in a row, I have now won around 16 games in a couple of weeks and I am 77 yrs.

There appears to be no IOS version. Please make. 🙏 ### 1/5 — Not what I expected *2026-03-31, version 2.12.24* Tiles way to small, it’s so hard for me to see and my eye sights real good, I’m very disappointed. And canceling. ### 1/5 — 讨厌弹幕广告 *2024-08-18, version 2.12.16* 广告太烦人了 ### 1/5 — question *2024-07-24* Why are my percentages stuck on same numbers and only 2 out of 5 games open Playing often and no update on these percentages I Request your advice on HOW to increase percentages and open locked games I’m playing but not proceeding so need an answer Thank you **Developer response:** Very sorry for my belated replay. It is under investigation and will back to you when has the conclusion why your progress at Game Center is stuck. ### 1/5 — Cancels board FOR ADS? *2024-06-22, version 2.12.15* This is ridiculous. Multiple times the game ends when I 100% have another move. A way to push more ads?! 🤬 ### 1/5 — 不滿足感覺 *2020-04-03, version 2.11.2* 遊戲好玩，但程式可能有 bugs! 雖然未 game over, 但已看不到有下一步。最可惜是即使玩家放棄，遊戲也沒有展示餘下的步驟，令人感到非常不滿足！ ### 1/5 — Не очень *2019-12-04, version 2.9* Работает только с интернетом. Вообще беда,качала для того,чтобы отвлекаться в дороге,когда нет интернета или во время перерыва. Поэтому требует инет и зарядку съедает в два счета((((( ### 1/5 — Misinformation in the ads *2019-09-14, version 2.8.6* I found the ad for Epoch filled with false information and scary tactics. I gave it a chance and really listened to it but its affect was to move me away from the game. My life is too precious —as is yours— to douse it with splashes of that kind of misguided nonsense. ### 1/5 — Awful poppy ad *2019-02-14, version 2.8.1* I’d like the rate this game well, but it has a terrible pop up ad. I’m offended by it. I’d pay for this game if it didn’t have ads. Until this problem is fixed, I can not recommend this game. ### 1/5 — Annoying ads *2018-12-26, version 2.8* This would be an awesome game if they didn’t have a pop up ad when you ask for a hint. They show the hint and then you have to watch an ad before you can complete the move. The ads are long and it’s difficult to remember the hint after having to watch the ad. Poor system. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fantastic Fun *2026-07-07, version 2.12.24* I Love this game!!! I win a lot and I just broke the record and I scored “10,328” So excited my last hi score was “10,310”! Can anyone top this score? I don’t know why anyone writes negative reviews about this game! It’s my FAVORITE! ### 5/5 — 好玩，增強專注力 *2026-06-19, version 2.12.24* 延緩老人癡呆症 ### 5/5 — Mahjong Solitaire puzzle *2026-06-02, version 2.12.24* I love the game your brain gets a workout!! ### 5/5 — Push Mahjong *2026-04-27, version 2.12.24* Love this game— it never gets boring, because there is always an opportunity to win. So many games are super simple so you always win. Others are more luck than skill, or anxiety producing because everything moves so fast. Push Mahjong lets you play at your own pace. It is simple to learn but challenging too. ### 5/5 — Challenging! *2026-04-22, version 2.12.24* Much more difficult than it looks, but frequently shuts down program before game if completed! Great potential! ### 5/5 — Getting better *2026-04-12, version 2.12.24* Initially I felt that it lied about no more moves left but it’s getting better and it’s more fun now and my preferred game ### 5/5 — Challenging! *2026-03-09, version 2.12.24* Much more difficult than it looks, but excellent for focus and concentration! ### 5/5 — PushMahjong *2026-02-28, version 2.12.24* Difficult but enjoyable. ### 5/5 — Ms *2026-01-22, version 2.12.24* Really keeps your mind thinking enjoy games like these. Love this game I could play it all day. Best ever. Still loving this game, my favorite. Still enjoying this game so much. Very challenging. Still loving the best game ever. Hooray. I can’t believe how many times I have won this. If I could set all day and play push mahjong I surely would. I play is a lot. My favorite game to play ### 5/5 — Addictive *2026-01-09, version 2.12.24* This is a game of concentration and patience.
