ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Mahjong GlobalCup holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mahjong GlobalCup has 24 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Mahjong (single machine)'s written reviews are positive against 50% of Mahjong GlobalCup's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Mahjong (single machine) ships an update every 3 weeks, Mahjong GlobalCup monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
