### 5/5 — great game

*2026-04-26*

ive been playing on the danball website for around 10 years and out of all of the games i love this one the most, i found that they released the game on mobile last year so ive been playing it more on my phone than my computer. i have noticed that the phone seems slightly more easy to lose than the website, 10/10 game i never get bored of

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-02-02*

You really need to use your head on this one. Once you learn how to make the correct moves you’ll enjoy play.

### 3/5 — Sound?

*2025-03-29*

You should probably just do away with the sound.  This game spends as much time without sound as it does with sound.  Doesn’t make sense to me.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2025-01-19, version 1.7.0*

I used to play this mahjong on an old Windows 95 PC. I wanted to find an app that was the same but could never find one. They were either different shapes with the tiles stacked on top of each other, or the remaining tiles would move once you got rid of some. I just wanted the old rectangle where none of the tiles moved. It took me forever to find this and it was exactly what I was looking for. It’s simple but good. Thank you! (Just a side note: I can see someone complaining about hints but I’ve never had a problem. I don’t use them and none pop up. I like it the way it is.)

### 5/5 — This my favorite game

### 1/5 — Hints,

*2023-05-31, version 1.6.0*

Cannot be removed which makes the game rubbish l can beat most none hint times but cannot remove the automatic hints off your format, which makes it all a waste of time

### 5/5 — Idk what to say

*2022-07-05*

Idk

### 1/5 — Shishen sho

*2022-01-13, version 1.5.1*

Needs option of unlimited help

### 4/5 — Scoring

*2021-05-22*

Scoring makes no sense!!!  You receive better score when you rely on help to solve puzzle than when you solve it completely without help?
Scoring seems to have changed recently but this issue still persists! Rating would be five stars if the scoring was fair(I.e., best score should result from solving puzzle with absolutely NO hints!).
