JantakuAR

Read full description

Take your mahjong table anywhere. Jantaku AR turns a real table into a shared Riichi Mahjong table using augmented reality. Place a marker on the table and scan it with your iPhone. A 3D mahjong table appears in AR, and up to four players share it from their own seats. Tiles, discards and scores stay in sync in real time. You can also practice alone in 3D mode, with no AR marker. A discard coach helps you choose what to throw, and understand why. MAIN FEATURES Shared AR table for up to four players • A 3D table appears on the real table in front of you • Up to four iPhones share one table over the local network • Each player sees their own hand from their own seat • Move around and the view changes with you Single-player 3D mode • No AR marker and no camera required • Play against AI opponents on one iPhone • A discard coach matched to your play style, free daily hand included • The coach explains why it pushes or folds, point by point One to four human players • AI players in five styles, retuned over thousands of simulated games, fill any empty seats • Japanese competition and standard rule presets • International competition rules too (30,000-point start, no red fives, no abortive draws) The game runs itself • Dealing, draws, discards, calls, wins and scoring are handled • Riichi, Chi, Pon, Kan, Ron and Tsumo, with every score opening up to show where each fu came from • A digital score display for all four players RESULTS AND GAME REVIEW Every hand is recorded, and your most recent 200 hands are summarized: • Win rate, deal-in rate, riichi rate and call rate • Tenpai rate at exhaustive draws, average winning score and balance • How often your discard matched the best one • How often you finish 1st through 4th, and your average placement • A written assessment that accounts for how much you have played Charts show how you are changing: • Placement across your last 50 games, with a 10-game moving average • Placement distribution, switchable between the last 50 games and all time • An attack-defense quadrant plotting win rate against deal-in rate, for all time and for your last 50 hands, so you see which way you are going With Hand Replay you walk back through your hand one discard at a time, comparing the tile you threw with the recommended one, alongside the shanten count and the tiles that would improve it. Records reach every player, so each can review the game from their own seat. WHY JANTAKU AR No automatic table and no physical set: a table and an iPhone turn wherever you gather into a mahjong table. This is not online mahjong played inside a screen. You meet in the same room, around the same surface. Lean toward the next seat and you see that seat's hand, as you would in person. And a real table keeps no record, so face-to-face players could never tell whether they were improving. Jantaku AR is the table, so every hand is kept. TRY IT FREE One hand per day is free — enough to check AR tracking, local multiplayer and 3D mode on your own devices before subscribing. SUBSCRIPTIONS Jantaku AR 1 Table — shared AR games for up to four players. 1 month, automatically renewable. Only the host's iPhone needs a subscription; everyone else at that table joins for free. Unlimited Solo — unlimited single-player practice in 3D mode. 1 month, automatically renewable. Prices are shown on the App Store purchase screen and vary by country. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://giza.jbeans.jp/jb/mj/privacy.html REQUIREMENTS iOS 18.6 or later; For multiplayer, use the same Wi-Fi network — Personal Hotspot also works. Play in a safe, well-lit place with a flat table. AR accuracy varies with device and environment. Jantaku AR — a new way to play Riichi Mahjong.
