Comments on Mahjong School: Learn Riichi for Android

★★★★★ Влад · Aug 8, 2020
Just fantastic. I was hoping to get into mahjong and this is by far the best app for it. Tutorial was quite helpful and the ability to turn on "English tiles" is absolutely invaluable. Overall, great app and the best if you want to play mahjong on your phone
★★★★★ Meagan Campbell · Oct 27, 2023
It's Riichi Mahjong. If you want to learn, and you are struggling, maybe try this!
★★★★★ nikhil vvkp · Jun 1, 2020
Gameplay is good. But I feel there is some problem with self drawn. App doesn't detect a Yaku on self drawn cards. Users do not have the ability to call Ron, until application decide to do so. That needs to be fixed.
★☆☆☆☆ download hoster · Apr 27, 2023
Very frustrating. Hard to win. Always gave me wind or those Kanji tiles. Very easy for AI to Richie within few steps. Seems AI always got tiles they needed, and gave the junk to me. And if I Richie, the AI, sometime immediately got Richie too and almost surely AI will win the round. Felt scripted. Felt cheated. Need more explanation inside yaku list.
★☆☆☆☆ El La · Jan 5, 2024
The "lessons" are presented as a dialog between 2 girls - which means reading unnecessary comments. I would've much rather preferred a simple presentation. It starts telling you to discard tiles before even explaining how the tiles are distributed or how they are set on the table. This is a detail, but when they are talking why is the background a library and not mahjong parlor? The names of the hands used are all mixed up, English, Japanese, Chinese, all together. No settings whatsoever.

Description by PocketStar Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Mahjong School: Learn Japanese Mahjong Riichi
Mahjong School is where you can learn to play Mahjong. Mahjong School focuses on helping you learning Japanese style Mahjong, which is also almost the same as the European style (Riichi) and US style Mahjong. It may be a little different from Chinese, Hong Kong or Taiwan style, but if you succeeded in learning the Japanese rule, you can easily switch to the other rules.
Mahjong School has three ways to help you learn Japanese Mahjong.
1 The Mahjong calculator.
You can click to add tiles to hand or TING, CHOW, PON, CHI to make a winning hand. You can also set various conditions, such as DORA and self-draw. After set completed, the calculator will calculate the hand of FU and point for you, with detailed descriptions such as hand names.
2 The simple tutorial.
This tutorial lists all the HAN for you, including an example hand and a description.
3 A practice mode.
You can play Mahjong directly with AI. The AI is entry level and it’s very friendly for Mahjong learners. Practice is the best way to learn Mahjong.

Enjoy!
