Very solid mahjong game. Characters are charming, and the addition of player abilities is a fun twist, even if I don't know how to properly take advantage of all of them.
it's cute and has a charming story with witty writing i expected the dirtbag abilities to... be more impactful i guess? the only one i actually see that 'does anything' is Rowan's dragon hand stuff and Hana's extra point scoring stuff... everything else seemed kind of pointless...? regardless I think it's a nice tool for people learning mahjong and wanna mess around with some silly rules
I love women and nyan binary ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

This game is fun and lets me play mahjong on the computer.
this game's got some charm, pretty decent for a mahjong novice like me! admittedly, the text size and some UI elements feel a bit small for my strained eyes (even on a steam deck). [edit after clearing all the stories] I did really enjoy the stories and how feasible the missions felt! I'm at least competent enough to get mostly-finished hands!
Nice game. It would be better if language has Chinese. Mahjong is popular in China (exp. the game Mahjong Soul), so please develop Chinese for sales volume. And I think AI translation is totally OK for English to Chinese.
The story and art in this are phenomenal!! The interface is very clear and there are a lot of tools designed to help you learn how to play the game, with a lot of accessibility options (font changing) and what language you want to see the tiles in. There's a log for the combat so you can follow along with what's happening, and detailed guides covering how each character plays dirty. It's such a fun premise and I'm excited to dig into more!!
It's neat! I like it.
Charming mahjong game that gives people their fix while being able to play it on their own (Not very knowledgeable here but it almost always seem that most Mahjong clients are just always-online experiences), and it also features a whole storyline with the cast, which allows you to pick whoever you prefer (the game will indicate the difficulty overall depending on character chosen), and then you'll be presented with all sorts of wacky interactions and bizarre occurrences that culminate in mahjong play. All story stages have specific requests so it throws some more twists into the usual formula. For example, sometimes you have to actually lose the match to progress (attempting to win will actually have you getting a game over while the other characters mock you!); sometimes you can simply go through a whole game regardless of winning or losing, but you cannot use any of your abilities, and so and so. Sometimes it's simply calling Ron. For anyone who enjoys mahjong, this could prove a fun way of experimenting with the game they know and enjoy. On that matter, all mahjong players featured here possess unique abilities that they can use (and in clear "dirtbag" part of the name, they usually cause massive harm to the other players) by charging a MP bar while the game goes on. Spices up the usual formula, and while it's nothing all too damaging (defeating an opponent will simply render their turn void until the next round), it still provides an extra layer of challenge. Although I'm still unsure how come we can't eat the tiles, all things considered. As someone who has no knowledge of mahjong at all, the tutorial is...okay, and the ease of experience makes it fun to get into even if you have no clue how this game is played, but ultimately having to check up information outside the game helps a lot. If you've ever been curious about mahjong, this might very well be your best option to try it out and grab a feeling for it. Just bear in mind that the cast of goobers present love to cause as much psychic damage to their partners as they do towards the player. This game both builds your mahjong knowledge and your mental defense!
So Cute Mahjong!!!!!!
