What real reviews say
★★★ Impossible without reshuffle Nice layout and plenty of games. However far too many are impossible to finish without a reshuffle. Loosing its appeal real quick.
★★★★★ Safe Mmahjong The only free one I found that does not sale your data to third parties so that they know where you are at all the time.
★★★★★ The best This is by far the best Mahjong app available. Great graphics. Traditional play. Very fun to play. No ads.
