Mahjong! App Reviews

The games stops if the speed is modified

The graphics are very good but the countings and results are dramatical bad! Also there is missing a reset-button!

Very pleasant to play with, good design and feeling. Important bug : Quite often, when claiming a discarded tile in order to complete a chow in your hand, the game doesnt detect the possible chow and the pop-up only propose "Declare a win". Suggestion 1 : To set an "Undo" button Suggestion 2 : To set the possibility to adjust the speed when other players claim a discarded tile (really to fast, no chance for the real player to take a tile before them !)

Finally I found a Mahjong App. that is not a Shanghai clone but the REAL Mahjong Game !! I LOVE IT

Its a good traditional game of mahjong the only thing I recommend changing is that the player should be allowed to move the pieces within their own hand

Good clean interface for a classic game but needs some changes: - discards pile up so you cant see all the discarded tiles - would like ability to rearrange my hand - "round" and "seat" winds are too small to be identified without magnification - when a hand is over Id like to see more information about the score - can I change the names of the players? Very little information on the web support page, or within the game itself. This could be the best Mah Jong game out there with some tweeks. Waiting for version 2.0.

There is a bug in version 1.1. The application abruptly quits (every time) back to iPad home screen when the settings button is pressed. Issue reported to developer, but to no acknowledgement. There is opportunity in the game layout design; the tile sort is not logical (ie suits are not grouped together), then auto sort kicks in after messing up my manual sort. There is no score keeper, or how much you won or loss each round. No multiplayer capacity. Low replay value. Recommend "Four Wind Mahjong" for iPad.

Missing a few basics such as a pause feature, no stats. Although you can rearrange your tiles, when the game gives you another tile, your own tiles shift around and you have to shift them back again. Otherwise a nice game of real mahjong!

I bought this app for my mother and she absolutely loves it. Her only suggestion so for is that there should be stats to keep track of your wins and losses. Maybe a chip pile etc.

too buggy to be released to the public. apple should have better quality control on what they put up for sale in their app store.

A few nagging bugs make the game a little frustrating... 1) Scoring is confusing! Computer keeps winning "chicken hands" even when the minimum hand setting is selected. Also, cant see what the current scores for yourself or your opponents are. 2) The computer can steal your "winning" tile with a "pung". I believe that the winning hand has priority over a pung regardless of seating order, etc. Hopefully, these and other issues get resolved.

When it is a draw game, the app doesnt know and asks the player to keep playing. Then it will crash and you need to relaunch the app. However, now the app is just frozen after a drawn game and I can reset/relaunch app. I want my 2 bucks back! Its useless to me if I cant play. What a rip.

Dont buy this until gets fixed. It crashes at a draw. Also I dont like how the CPU discards all the winds at the beginning. It also needs to make more clear how it calculates points for your hand.

I was so excited to see a proper mahjong game for my iPad. Too bad this isnt one. Crashes and it doesnt know proper hands.

Programming needs a lot of work! The bug for a dead hand still isnt fixed and there are still errors in calculating points (it seems that it sometimes cant differ between chow and pong!) Needs a better menu. It just needs a lot of help!

The general feel of play is good. However, the hand scoring is very poor -- it frequently scores winds that arent there, doesnt give credit for no honours, and confuses pung and chow (leading to hands scoring far less than they should -- Ive had a 4 hand scored as 0).

My version of this app had something go wrong with it. All of the sudden my screen is getting cut off at the bottom and I cannot fully see the bottom of the lower row of tiles..... I have tried to delete the app and reload it onto my iTouch but nothing seems to work. I have not found another app that has real Mahjong otherwise I would have just bought another app. I am not sure what I can do about this.... :(

This game also does not award points for the proper flower. This is also a common rule in mahjong.

Gameplay is good but the calculations of score is still incorrect sometimes. Needs the option to kong after you draw the fourth tile to a a set you have already ponged. After these problems are fixed this game has potential to be pretty good. Also after the new update, when I start a new game the direction/seat winds are no longer visible

This company needs to write complete instructions for this game. Do not buy it if you are a beginner Mahjong player. I have visited the Mahjong! Support page and it has only very basic instructions about how to play this version - it provides little in the way of explaining how the game is played.
