### 3/5 — Volume

*2020-01-23, version 1.1.3*

How do you reduce the volume?  I have pressed mute and it still blows me out of my chair. It takes away any enjoyment.

### 1/5 — Boring game

*2018-01-08, version 1.1.3*

Annoying boring the game board is not big enough and showing the time is annoying ALL the time!

### 1/5 — Zen twins

*2014-10-23, version 1.1.2*

Are you ever going to fix this game to play with 8.0.2 upgrade?  It will not let you play another game after the first one.  Have to delete it to play every time.  I would give you a -0 if I could.

### 5/5 — Zen Twins Rocks!

*2013-12-23, version 1.1.2*

This app is addicting!  I find myself playing it all the time.

### 2/5 — Too easy

*2013-06-08, version 1.1.2*

Too easy.  I wanted the full version but I was not instructed how to choose it

### 5/5 — Zen Twins Kite

*2013-01-11, version 1.1.2*

I love all Mahjong but this one is awesome and it's easy!

### 2/5 — VJ

*2012-07-09, version 1.1.2*

Good premise, but too easy unless it's meant for kids. Should allow users to choose level of difficulty.

### 5/5 — Different but good

*2012-04-26, version 1.1.2*

Easy to learn. Easier to use than the usual mah Jongg tiles.

### 2/5 — Madal

*2011-04-17, version 1.1.2*

Good for kids, easy to win each round
