Move matching mahjong tiles into the same column; once 10 identical tiles are stacked together you can merge them, and Deal brings in new tiles.
Controls we used
Click or tap: tap a stack to pick it up, tap another column to drop it. Buttons for Deal, Merge and Shuffle.
On a phone (390px test)
Yes – it is laid out in portrait, so on a 390px phone screen the board and buttons filled the screen neatly. On desktop it plays in a narrow column.
Load time
About 1.3 seconds to the Start screen.
Difficulty
Easy start with a guided tutorial ("Tap to choose", "Collect 10 same ones to merge", "Get more"). Some columns start locked.
In-game ads
Yes – the Shuffle button is marked "AD" and several locked columns show a video icon, i.e. they are unlocked by watching an ad. The GameMonetize video-ad system (Google IMA) also loads.
How a session plays
Start → tutorial board. We moved a stack of tiles onto its match, merged the group of ten, and were prompted to Deal more tiles. It is a slow, tidy sorting loop rather than a race.
Our verdict: A relaxing sorting puzzle that suits phones well, but expect the ad-linked Shuffle and column unlocks.
How we test: we open the game in a desktop browser and in a 390px-wide phone view, time how long it takes to load, play through the opening level or round and note exactly what we saw. We only write down things we observed. More about our testing.
