Mahjong (Full)

I used to play Vita but game changes made it nearly impossible to enjoy. this has retro graphics. reminds me of platinum on my computer in the 90's. tiles are small, but manageable. unlimited hints and reshuffle. no competition, no timer, no random pop-up notification or scrolling banners. for the cost of a bottle of soda from the vending machine, the value can't be beat

great puzzles. pretty straight forward. no flashy moving pictures or lights or whatever to distract you. no ads, for paid, not even sneaky ones. colors and graphics are great. the pictures on the tiles are distinguishable enough from each other that you're not always hitting the wrong ones cuz they look too similar. thanks, dev, for a classic, simple, beautiful game. very much appreciated in the midst of so many ai slop games or games that try to squeeze as money out of you as possible.

It's a good value and I'd buy it again, but it has some major flaws. It will change settings unexpectedly (i. e., re-enabling sounds), it uses way too much battery, and the UI is poorly implemented. But it's still exactly the game I wanted with zero ads, data harvesting, or other modern shenanigans. In 2026 that's the best I can hope for, it seems.
