User Reviews for Mahjong by Microsoft

Started in ‘XP’ for eXPerience

Now that we got that out of the way. If I am not incorrect Mahjong from Microsloth came with XP. My Love’s Mother played Mahjong. May she Rest In Peace. I remember the “clacking” when the tiles were dumped, all at once onto the kitchen table - it was a calamity it was so loud. Anywho I finally got my chance (Oh, she offered, Dottie was her name) when this came out. Everybody was playing Pinball and Pool. A very smooth and short learning curve. And always remember where the tiles lie!

Was great but now …

This is a very well developed game and variations of Mahjong … but … but visually it has been ruined. Flashing and constantly movig advertisement ON TOP OF SCREEN HAS TO GO … OUT OF THERE. Flashing adds on top of tge screen are the most DISTRACTING, agravating, and constantly break gaming concentration … move them out or to the bottom. At the top, they have ruined the game, the desire to play the game, the will to finish. PLEASE, GET THOSE INTRUSIVE AND AGRAVATING TYPE OF ADDS OUT OF THE TOP OF THE SCREEN. AGGHHHHH!!!

A little buggy

There’s a bug when the app is started up: the wrong game comes up when you try to select one in particular. Also, as others have said, ads get stuck in an endless loop and play loud music even when sound is turned off. Also, confusingly, the game sometimes doesn’t follow the Mahjong convention of having only four duplicate tiles. Otherwise, not a bad game.

Good game

Not done badly, actually nice to play. Ads are not too bad to sit through. One problem is the volume levels. For some reason the volume often goes to very quiet, when you're taking some time to find that elusive match for example, then gradually builds back to normal volume as you make more matches. A bit distracting, but the gameplay is not impacted too much. Maybe there's a bug there that can be looked at. If you set the volume it should stay where it is set.

Ads can trap you!

I love this app, but there are numerous times when I get trapped in a loop that takes you back to the menu again - NOT to the puzzle you’ve clicked on! It’s VERY frustrating! I have found that ads that give you a “skip” option DO NOT throw you into the loop. Those ads work and allow you to go to your puzzle. But the ads that start by giving you a white “X” that you click on, and then you get a page counting down from 5, then giving you another “X” - those ads always just take me back to the menu!! PLEASE FIX THIS!! 😖

Nice Game But!!

I was surprised to find a Microsoft app in the Apple App Store. I downloaded this to my iPhone because I have it on my Microsoft Surface Pro and find it enjoyable and challenging. I am a bit disappointed in this version for the iPhone. After downloading the game it would shut itself off (a lot) in the middle of playing. The crashes seemed to have stopped. The only thing I am having an issue with now is when I tap a tile and then go to tap the matching tile the first tile becomes un-highlighted so I have to tap the first tile again or retap both. It gets annoying especially when playing the challenge to remove x amount of tile pairs in a few minutes.

Mahjong by MS

Amazing amount and mix of puzzles, you won’t get bored. However, you might frustrated because Taboola adds are allowed so much band width that they often stall your game loading and scoring. So, you choose next game or chose a specific game, then up pops the taboola ad and you have to watch their sales video. Problem is the app does not send you to the game you chose or was next, instead it loads another game and if you play it you get no credit towards your goals. Frankly, Tabboula also sells many sham products. If you decide to try a taboola ad product, be prepared to be ripped off! You either get charged more than advertised or you start getting a boat load of junk products under a “subscription “ you never agreed to but, all charged to the card you entered! I’m sure Microsoft makes a lot of money off Taboola but, do you want get charged for all that junk that does not do what they claim or never ordered in the first place!

Fun, great maps… terrible ads

First off, this is the version of Mahjong that I’ve decided to use after trying several. The controls are easy to understand, there are plenty of maps, performance is good, and graphics are nice. Some tile sets aren’t the greatest, but I have one that looks really nice that I always use.Here’s the problem, which I’m reminded of by a new update’s changelog: sponsored ads. You know, those ads that are clearly clickbait and virus- and scam-laden, yet big companies still use them on websites and in apps? I’ve tried to block Taboola but the ads almost always still come through on sites and always in apps. It completely baffles me how a company like Microsoft can allow that kind of ad in their products! I understand ads are necessary, and I can pay to have them removed, but it’s never okay to use spammy/scammy ads like that. They also immediately make your app or site look sketchy.Microsoft: there are ad services out there that are merely irritating, the bare minimum for ads. Why not use one of those? You show complete disrespect for your users by going with Taboola or another similar “sponsored ads” clickbait service. Ads like “new law shocks local drivers!” and “doctors say to eat this now!” have no place on any respectable website or app.

Keeps Crashing and Ads Are Disgusting

Loved playing this game at first, but recently the game crashes constantly, it is beyond frustrating. Also, it would be nice if the PC version of the game had the same features as the app on my phone. Furthermore, there needs to be a warning regarding the flashing/blinking ads at the top of the screen, they are a seizure trigger, and a warning is required!! The “weight loss” ads are truly disgusting; putting a grossly obese, mostly naked woman in an ad hawking a pill that is supposed to miraculously melt away weight is reckless, negligent, and in extremely bad taste. Hawk your games all you want, but get rid of these disgusting ads!!
