The gameplay offers a fresh twist by incorporating a unique mahjong mechanic where players match tiles from a stack to those in a tray, improving over traditional pick-two tile methods and eliminating common gameplay frustrations. The game includes a variety of levels featuring traditional mahjong, the new matching mechanic, and higher-lower solitaire, providing diverse and engaging challenges.
- “The newest Twistingo installment diversifies the game offerings by including the mahjong gameplay first featured in the Lost Amulets series.”
- “Changing things up a bit is the inclusion of a mahjong game in each "chapter" with the unique mechanic of clicking on tiles in the "stack" which match one of the tiles in the tray at the bottom.”
- “This method of playing is far better than the usual pick 2 tiles mechanic used in most mahjong games and means you never have to worry about having to reshuffle the "stack" numerous times to win, or getting that dreaded 2 tiles stacked atop each other impossible situation at the very end.”
