  • The game has a straightforward tutorial that effectively teaches the basics of Mahjong, making it a great choice for beginners.
  • The AI opponents provide a decent challenge, and the graphics, while basic, are charming and easy to understand.

  • There are several bugs and glitches, such as issues with the tutorial freezing and incorrect scoring displays, which can disrupt gameplay.

  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, users report a mixed experience with stability; while some have not encountered any glitches, others have experienced issues such as freezing during lessons and a looping glitch related to game mechanics.

    • “I didn't encounter any glitches during my gameplay.”
    • “The game runs smoothly without any crashes.”
    • “I was impressed by the overall stability; everything worked as intended.”
    • “The only problem is the glitches, such as when a Khan is available in the real player's opening hand and the program goes into a loop of only offering nonexistent Khans after the first one.”
    • “It's good, but why does it freeze in the lessons almost all the time?”
  • graphics
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are described as simplistic and reminiscent of two decades ago, with some users noting grammatical errors in the text. However, many agree that the visuals do not detract from the app's ability to effectively teach mahjong, emphasizing that cutting-edge graphics are not necessary for an enjoyable experience.

    • “The graphics are comically basic, and the text has numerous grammatical errors, but by God, this app can teach you mahjong.”
    • “Graphics look 20 years old, but no complaints except that it's easy to accidentally discard the wrong pai.”
    • “Get over yourself, you don't need cutting-edge 3D 4K graphics; everything you need is here.”
  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players appreciate the humor in the game, noting that it effectively combines funny elements with gameplay, particularly through amusingly translated English in the lessons. Additionally, the light-hearted tone enhances the overall experience without the distraction of intrusive ads.

    • “Thanks for your funny game.”
    • “Exactly what I wanted in a Japanese mahjong app. The ads aren't as annoying as in most mobile games, and the two 'lessons' are helpful and use funny, poorly translated English.”
  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy in the game is criticized for being overly reliant on ads, which detracts from the overall experience. While players find the game enjoyable for casual play, the frequent 5-second ads are particularly frustrating and disrupt the flow of gameplay.

    • “Potentially good, but the ads kill the experience.”
    • “Nice game for wasting time, but the ads are so annoying. I don't really mind ads, just the 5-second ads are killing the mood.”
  • gameplay
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally well-received, with users expressing satisfaction with its quality.
