App Profile: Let's Mahjong

Nakoruru

Rating: 5/5

I’m new to mahjong though I was born in HK and had wanted to learn it after many years of not knowing who to ask. This app is super fun and thorough. Don’t let the cuteness fool you, it’s very complete and has great info in the scoring and info section. I’ve learned to play completely just by using this app. I love the characters and the interactive elements that make it so easy to pick up. I’m still new to the scoring combos and the new rules in the New 6 and New 18 but they make it easy to learn. My husband and I use it to play in a private room with AI and it’s so much fun. The only thing I’m not clear about is that small squiggly icon in the upper left corner. What’s that for? Aside from that, the settings are awesome and hearing the name of each tile in Cantonese helps me pick it up faster. This is the real deal and the best app for this game!

I haven’t played a real MJ game for 25+ years and this is the closest app I’ve found to be the real deal the way I learned to play decades ago. I like how it shows how each hand is won with breakdown of fahn (points) and the different ways to play. Having both Chinese and English display and audio options is also a plus so I can teach my ABC kids how to play and pick up some Cantonese skills at the same time. The interface is clear and easy to learn. My only comment would be to make the characters more realistic looking rather than cartoon-like, and no need to introduce them at every new round. Other than that, I really enjoy playing this game!

I’ve downloaded every mahjong app on the App Store and even programs for Mac and PC, and this is one of the best I’ve ever used, if not THE best. Functions well and also the art and the whole aesthetic is really cool and stylish. I love it, would love to see some added variations and maybe some in app purchases down the line! I would srsly pay for this monthly LOL, I hope the developers keep improving :)! If you’re looking for a solid mahjong app that isn’t Riichi (cause there’s a couple rlly good ones) this is THE one in my opinion.
