Could use a couple important tweaks but good overall
I'll admit that I was initially pretty skeptical about buying an app with no reviews, but I am pretty pleased. Overall this game was a pleasure to play, but there were a couple of annoyances that I hope are resolved in a later release.
The main thing for me was the placement of the menu buttons (Hint, Game, Settings, etc.). The way they are now they partially obscure the outer top and bottom edges. Since you can zoom and rotate the board you could get around this by rotating the board. I still find them a bit distracting, though, so I hope that a small button will be added in a future update to show/hide the other buttons.
The only other comment I have is about the tiles themselves. The designs are beautiful, but I think they may mostly be too intricate for a screen as small as the iPod's or iPhone's. For those with good eyesight this should not affect gameplay, but I think it would be nice to see a couple simplified tile design options in future releases.
All that said the game does do what it is supposed to and provides a fun way to play Mahjong.
