Mahjong - Tile Matching Puzzle 4+

Excellent, could recommend changes

This is my go-to game for boring situations, which is a very important need in everyone’s life. Waiting for pizza, falling asleep, on the toilet, perfect! I do think the Donut board is horrendous, I routinely spent hours on a single board. I play randomizing the boards but I figured out if I don’t play any pieces I can just start a new game if I land on Donut and it won’t cost me my streak. A little prompt pops up saying it will but it actually won’t, I’ve checked. Also if I’m facing an excruciating board of any other flavor and don’t want to lose my streak I can just click on the Daily Puzzle - or wait until the next day’s - and once I’ve beaten it, hit new game from that screen and that old board is forgotten! Otherwise if you hit back it will go back to it. The reason you need all this at all is because there is no difficulty setting. You can play one board and get a PB at 38 seconds and then play the next that will take you 3 hours. Some boards are almost impossible not to beat on the first try. Others are almost impossible to beat on the first try. But I would say a difficulty setting where you hit that sweet spot between 3-10 minutes would be golden. And for people who have no life and want to spend a gazillion hours on Donuts and tougher Mounds, a harder setting they can choose.

Great Design and Game Choices

I just recently started playing this and it’s pretty addictive! I really enjoy playing this. I like the tile and board and background selections which make the games more interesting in terms of changing things up. Sometimes I want an easy game and sometimes I want to challenge myself. I also appreciate that the ads between games are not long and tiresome. I haven’t tried other Mahjong apps but I could tell that this was one of the better ones out there.

My one complaint is about reaching a dead end and not knowing where or how far to go back. This is a game that’s based more on choices and luck than on pure logic. So to that degree, I find the randomness component a bit frustrating. Maybe I’m not a good candidate for card games either! I was not formally familiar with Mahjong before this app, nor am I familiar with the traditional 4-person version.

I have one suggestion for the Developer. It would be great if an optional feature in Options could be added whereby a player could opt to learn exactly where they chose wrong and go back to that point. As it is now, depending on my mood, I randomly go back midway or start again from the very beginning. In either case, it’s difficult to remember the exact tiles I selected or in what order. I’d say two-thirds of the time, I complete it on the second go-around. But I never bother opting for a third try! I think having the option to know where to go back to would be a nice feature.

Hi Diane's Voice, thank you for sharing this feature suggestion with us! We will keep this in mind for future game updates!

Love! But 30+ second ads & freezing, Blerg…

I love this game & Brainium is my #1 go-to app for games. But… Several recent reviews complain about 30+ second ads, & this has happened to me repeatedly. I understand having to watch ads to get a free app, but that is nuts. Plus after hitting X another ad (or the App Store) opens. And in general it freezes pretty frequently, & yes I offloaded the app. Whoever responded saying you only have 5-7 second ads implies the reviewers are wrong about the crazy long ads, but nope. It happens maybe every ~15th ad (I play hours worth of games daily, it is my zen ;P).
One improvement I’d love to see - I had this goal to complete every daily game this year, but having completed all Jan games except 1 (& spent 5+ hours trying to solve it, grumble), as of today Jan is longer accessible. Can you fix that? Thank you!!
