Mahjong - zMahjong Solitaire 4+

This is a challenging game, but very enjoyable. It does need some improvements, in my opinion. The game needs a pause function, so you can leave the game without the clock continuing to tick. It would also be good if you could save and continue a game at a later date. Also, it would be helpful if there was some sort of notification when no moves remain, and perhaps the option to randomly shuffle the remaining tiles at that point. There are no instructions included with the game, though it is pretty intuitive and easy to figure out if you look at the sample boards on the game description. I'm hopeful these improvements will be made; the game would then rate 5 stars for me.

This is surely the best Mahjong game, but there remain some minor annoyances. The most notable is the inability to close the achievement (scores) window after a win, which necessitates a forced quit. The iPad version has, however, eliminated this bug, and also has additional features that have been sought in this version, such as notification that there are no possible additional moves. The inability to pause the clock still lacks in both versions, however.

Notwithstanding the issues, the gane is to be recommended.

This is the Taiwan version of the ubiquitous matching game with Mahjong tiles. I have purchased it both for my Macs & my iPads. It is a delight for puzzlers.

I would appreciate some enhancements though:

1) Pause the clock when the game is not running.

2) A queue of already matched tiles. At my age I can barely remember my name much less what tiles I have matched in a renewed saved game.

3) Alert the player when there are no matches to be made. (P.S. do not shuffle the remaining tiles as has been suggested. Sometimes the player can't clear the board. That's an element of the game. It is simple enough to start a new game)

4) Clear the leaders list of obvious cheats. No one completes this game in four and a half minutes.
