Unexceptional Mahjong Game

  

BASED ON DEMO

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
The game looks nice enough from the beginning, but it is nothing spectacular. There is no real feeling of being extraterrestrial. And of course they were covered by the board anyway, and there is only one new background per level. The music is likewise nice, not stunning, and eastern meditative rather than exotic. It also got boring and irritating quite quickly.

There is not even a hint of a story.

MAKING PROGRESS
The game plays as most modern mahjong games do. There are 7 gameplay styles including:

• Mahjong
• Logical Pairs
• Klondike Solitaire
• Add to the right number

and 3 others I don’t have names for.

I found the ‘logical pairs’ were not all that logical actually. The game progresses with points awarded for each (replayable) level, high scores and trophies.

You must play a total of 14 boards (2 x 7 types) before you can unlock the next level. You have hint, shuffle, undo, button, along with the no. of matches, no. of tiles. Each board can be trashed and replaced at any time, and you can replay them immediately or at a later time.

BOTTOM LINE
All standard mahjong stuff. I see nothing compelling with this one. But if you’ve grown bored with your other mahjong games...

I Recommend This Game!

Not at all, Justie!  I enjoy reading all of your reviews, so keep postin'~!
