Mahjong!

There are so few apps for playing true mahjong, it’s unfortunate that this one is so buggy. It crashes randomly and when you restart your game is gone. If this were fixed I would give it 5 stars.

The algorithms seem to be good, but user interface needs improvement! The tiles thrown out to table need to be at a consistent place in the center - right now they are being thrown at all angles all over the center table, and I have to keep looking for its landing place so I can grab it. Hence I missed the chances of grabbing the tile for Pong MANY times. The thrown-out tile needs to stay on table LONGER (or letting user pause) so user can THINK before acting on the tile. This speed needs to be

Need an easier way to claim the other player's tiles. Need a button to put my tiles in order. The app also crashed on my first solo game. It's great that it saved the game state, but when I resumed it crashed again in the same spot, so that game was ruined. Then I played my second game, and some timing with the pause button confused it and it got stuck (never continued no matter how many times I hit the pause/u pause button). I wish I could turn off the numbers on the wan's.

However it cheats you, before you can see the tile well enough, one of the computer players will take (Pung) the tile even if you want it and it should be yours to take.

This is a fun game to play when it works correctly. It is traditional mahjong and not the mahjong solitaire/matching games more commonly found. Unfortunately, it won’t always center properly on my iPad and part of the tiles in my hand are not visible. I haven’t run in to this problem on my phone yet. Needs some improvements. Otherwise, enjoyable.
