Impossible without reshuffle

Nice layout and plenty of games. However far too many are impossible to finish without a reshuffle. Loosing its appeal real quick.

Time well wasted!

This game is a great way to keep the mind alert — even though I’m not from Alert Bay; plus it keeps me in the Game! I’m going on 81 and usually scoring over 111 million points per game ;)

Safe Mmahjong

The only free one I found that does not sale your data to third parties so that they know where you are at all the time.
