Overview -------- This game is a variation of Memory and Mahjong. It begins with 4x4 tiles face down on a board. Tap on any three tiles to flip them open. If you get three of a kind, or three in a row, you will earn points and the tiles will be removed from the board. Otherwise the tiles will be flipped back over and you can try again. You will move to the next level when there are no more tiles on the board that can form a hand. Each new level will have more tiles on the board. The game ends when you have completed a board of 10x10 tiles. Scoring ------ You earn points based on the level and the type of hand. Three in a row is worth 3 points times the current level. Three of a kind is worth 6 points times the current level. Three of a kind with either ones or nines is worth 9 points times the current level. Three of a kind with winds is worth 12 points times the current level. Three of a kind with dragons is worth 15 points times the current level. You final score is equal to the number of points you earned minus the number of tiles you flipped open. Options ------- You can customize the color of the tiles. You can customize the background color or use a picture for the background. You can also turn on/off sound effects.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: MahjongFlip at none against Pyramid's shown. MahjongFlip also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 9 months). Pyramid's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (90 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
