### 2/5 — Not a great experience

*2026-08-16, version 2.3*

I won’t be renewing this time. I pay monthly and with playing a few times a week against the computer, I haven’t won once, even with some great hands,  in the last two pay cycles. It does help me practice deciding on my hand, but after that, actually playing the game is just too frustrating to lose every time.

### 5/5 — Play Mah Jongg

*2026-08-13, version 2.3*

Wonderful way to build your skills

### 5/5 — Real play!!

*2026-08-11, version 2.3*

The best mahjong app out there!

### 5/5 — So much fun!  Great app

*2026-08-10, version 2.3*

I love playing this game with U

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-08-10, version 2.3*

When I’m on vacation I love to load this app and play a game or two. I miss the the gals I play with, but, I keep up or perhaps even sharpen my skills while traveling.

### 5/5 — Best app to learn Mah Jongg

*2026-08-05, version 2.3*

Love this app!  It helps me learn the hands.

### 5/5 — Best Mahjong app

*2026-08-04, version 2.3*

With so many apps out there, I’ve found this to be the best!

### 5/5 — Terrific

*2026-08-03, version 2.3*

Closest game to real MahJongg

### 2/5 — Too many wall games

*2026-08-03, version 2.3*

I just played five games in a row (four against the computer and one against real players) and all five in a row ended as wall games. In real life games, I’d say we only wall about 5% of the time. What a waste of time to spend one hour playing, only to wall each game. Also, I don’t like that we have to “skip” every time there is a possibility to call. In another app, you just hit “proceed” continually, which is a better flow. Finally, with the suggested hands, it’s helpful to show the suggestion + the line it completes as other apps do vs just the suggestion. Sometimes I’m playing without my card and it helps to see the line.

### 5/5 — Legit!

*2026-08-01, version 2.3*

The only perfect Mah Jongg game online.  Great way to play or practice with friends or  against the computer.
