iShisen costs $0.99 and Mahjong 3 Full $3.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
iShisen holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mahjong 3 Full has 58 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of iShisen's written reviews are positive against 80% of Mahjong 3 Full's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iShisen ships an update every 6 months, Mahjong 3 Full every 12 months. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
