User Reviews for Real Mah Jongg

Great MahJongg Game!

I have really enjoyed this app. It is fast and very realistic. I am not sure why players are not winning against the computer, I have had no problem winning. I have actually won several games in a row. I have also played concealed hands and was able to win those as well. I am recommending this to my students. It is an excellent teaching tool for practice. Some comments I have read on here sound like the players aren’t versed on MahJongg rules and need to study the card more closely. This game always allows tiles to be taken when you have the necessary tiles required to “call”. Not sure I would pay a monthly fee to continue playing, but some may feel it’s worth the price. I am not interested in becoming addicted to this or any game on line. Thanks for developing this game.....I really enjoyed playing it for 2 weeks.🀄️

Unrealistic Computer play!!

When playing with people, the game is fair. However, when playing with the computer the play is unrealistic! I have witnessed the computer achieve concealed hands with 72, 69, 68, 56, 54, 52 tiles left. This would be next to impossible in real play! Computer exchanged 3 jokers with 3 flowers in one fail swoop. Any real person playing, would play a hand using those flowers. I have witnessed Computer exchanging for jokers in EVERY game I’ve played so far, no real person EVER gets a chance at these. The Computer achieves Mahjongg so fast you don’t have a chance to win. This is unrealistic. It happens time and time again. My co-players and I are keeping notes of these occurrences. I’ll keep the Ap, to play with friends until this Covid-19 quarantine is over, then I’ll be deleting it. Not realistic play!! I’ve written to the owner, and he/she placates my concerns and tells me to hang in there, like I’m a novice player. I assure you I am not. I teach Mahjongg, and play often. Love this game! But don’t love this Ap.

Great way to practice

I’m new to mah jongg. This lets me practice at my own speed in between weekly games with my friends. I have got to where I’m able to remember what hand I’m going for without checking my card every second. Twice I think the computer was wrong but most likely not. I was playing on slow but now I play fast as the tiles pop up faster and games go quicker. The game does automatically ask me if I want a tile if it could work for me so even though the I’m playing a fast game I don’t miss calling a tile. In real life if you don’t call the tile fast enough you miss out of course but it’s a great way to practice. And sometimes there is a wall game. So I believe that the computer is not cheating. I bought two mah jong tile sets and one set had smaller tiles than the regular ones. Check the sizes if you order something on line. This really is a great game.

Nice app but...

I like this app because it is one of the very few apps that actually lets you play Mah Jongg. However, there are a few quirks that frustrate me. First of all, let me say that I am too intimidated to play with real players because I am a new player and very slow, so I only play the computer. Anyway one issue I have is that it sometimes does not allow me to “call” or pick up discarded tiles that I need for my hand. I can’t figure out why sometimes it lets me and other times it does not, seems random to me. The other issue I have is that it allows the computer players to discard jokers, which, to my admittedly limited knowledge, is against the rules. In the last game I played, 3 jokers were discarded. This is frustrating because I sure could have used them!

Near perfect

In general, fun, helps you master the current card but the computer interaction is not sophisticated enough. So here is what I notice and some suggestions as well:Computer does not play defensively. When three exposures were up and obvious a flower required to win, The computer threw it! So this app does not really help in developing strategy. Also the need to constantly press skip if you have more than one joker is annoying especially when you are one away from mah jongg and the computer should know i don't need every tile that is discarded. A suggestion would be to give players 3 seconds to call rather than stop every move and wait for us to respond. There is no alternating who goes first. It is always the player if you only play with the computer. There is no penalty for throwing a hot tile at the end of the game. With one tile left and no chance to win, a computer player will still pick up a tile, which makes no sense.So, although I enjoy using the app daily and will continue using and paying for it, i would be encouraged to know if the developers are working on improvements.

No Directions

I am very new to mah jongg and got this app because a friend recommended it. I find a few problems with it while playing with the computers. It says 2023 card but the computers are winning with hands not on the 2023 card. That seems a bit unfair but as I am new to the game that might be standard. It also has very bad instructions/advice. How does one win with pairs in your hand? Many hands have pairs to make mah jongg but you cannot call or pickup a discarded card to make your pair. That seems strange to me. Must you just wait until you have picked one? I have noticed a few people making comments about how the computers seem rigged and unfair. I think I agree.

Fun game...BUT.......

I’ve been playing Mahj for 20 years....I know the game. This is NOT an “on your own teaching tool.” Just so beginners know. Usually one must learn from other people that know the game. Your APP should mention this. The App is kind of misleading to those that think they can open up and self learn.Kind of difficult. My only complaints:....sometime the game freezes..??.....it appears that a player is stalling.....the other players are waiting unknowingly.....then the game catches up....zip. Also....The game only opens to play about 70 % of the time. It shows spooling and does not open. I need to power off device...then restart.....but that doesn’t work half the time. My other games and apps open just fine. Ya got a few quirks to fix. BTW.....the SKIP button is unnecessary and very annoying to most experienced players....which is almost everyone. We know the game, See the game, hear the game.....if we want to call a tile it should be on the player to do so. That’s how the game is played. No tap on the shoulder reminders of possible options......eliminate the SKIP button.

Fang

I enjoyed using this app. It was helpful to play against the computer and take the time to make sets. I also learned from seeing the sets the computer made. However there are two major glitches in this program. The first one is that I was repeatedly not able to call when I had two matching tiles in my hand. This problem has been mentioned in many players comments. The second thing is that the screen zooms in and gets stuck in the zoom. The only way to correct the problem is to turn my iPad off to reboot it. I also find it frustrating that the owners will only let you play with a subscription. I would prefer to pay monthly for the months I choose to play.

Fine when playing with others

I enjoy using this app to play with friends. When play8 g with the computer, though, it is unrealistic and doesn’t follow the logic most maj players would follow. Example: with two tiles played, Computer #2 calls for a 1 and reveals a quint hand using two 1’s and three jokers. Computer #3 and Computer #1 proceed to cannibalize two of the jokers, all within the first five tiles played. Most maj players would never reveal a quint hand with three jokers extremely early in the game, knowing that 1) they are basically giving away two jokers, 2) there is an excellent chance of getting at least one other of the 1s when it is discarded, and 3) Using three jokers so early in the game would make it very tough to maj with a quint hand. I also find that the computer seems to constantly win with the same hands- quints, concealed hands, NEWS, and 2020 - hands that are not played every game. The computer is always playing the concealed hand under consecutive run. Seriously? Its nice to have the “solitaire” feature with this app, but just be prepared to be very frustrated.

Almost perfect Mah Jongg game!

I love that this game exists, and I love that I can play with real players or against the computer. I think it’s a great feature that a computer player will take over, if someone has to leave a game. Real Mah Jongg is almost perfect!A couple issues/complaints: I wish the game didn’t tell you whether a player “may call” a tile. This gives the other players information about what may be in that players hand, i.e. a couple of jokers or some of the same tile. I also think players should lose the appropriate points if they throw the tile that gives another player mahjong. The way the game is now, the points are pretty much worthless. They will just continue to accrue until we all have millions of points. Perhaps there could be a way to start a game with a certain amount of points or dollars, and then you can win or lose up to that much. So, if you start with 1000 points, you can potentially win 3000, 1000 from each player. Would be AMAZING and VERY interesting if we could play for real money...Anyway, I love your app. Thank you so much for making it!
