To refresh your memory, tap the HELP button and then tap any object on the screen to see some information about that object. If you have played Filipino Mahjong before, you will see that the table and the tiles are exactly what you would see in a real mahjong game. It has implemented all the following features: Draw, Chow, Pong, Kang, Secret (hidden Kang), Snag (sagasa), Rob the Snag (also called Rob the Kang), Single, Edge Tile, Wedged Tile (Edge Tile and Wedged Tile are variations of Single), Before the 5th Discard, Zero Flowers (sin flores), 13 Flowers (or more), Seven Pairs, 1 to 9 Straight (escalera), All Up, All Chow, All Pong, Kang without Pay, Full Flush, Back-to-Back, Declare 7 Pairs, Declare 1 to 9 Straight, Race-to-5-Wins Jackpot, a HELP button (for on-demand help) and a tutorial on Filipino mahjong. This app runs on iPads as well as iPhones. This app is an implementation of those rules. Pinoy Mahjong is a single-player game based on the mahjong rules (not yet formally defined) used in the Philippines. What a disappointment.Pinoy Mahjong now runs on the iPhone 13 family, the new iPads, and all Macs on Apple Silicon. Given that the technology is readily available for infinite board set ups, scoring, timers, competition mode, etc., I was expecting so much more. It’s fun for my daugher, who just turned seven, but any adult will quickly be finished with this app. You will complete the entire game and enter the world of irritating sales ads within twenty minutes of opening it. There is no timer and no scoring, so it’s just rote matching. There are only six boards to this app, they are mostly quite easy, and once you’ve completed them you are prompted after every board to buy more games. I downloaded this app before a long flight back from Hawaii, thinking that it could keep me entertained for a couple hours. Unfortunately this is just a quick teaser of mahjongg. I therefore expected that this game would be a pretty complete mahjongg game that could at least keep up with the games in production before today’s programmers were even born. This is old technology so the coding should be pretty much cut and paste. Mahjongg computer games have been around for at least twenty years, since the days when they were downloaded from floppy drives.
