Editor's review of MahJong Suite 2008

With more than 50 mah-jongg and Concentration-style layouts, the attractive and addictive MahJong Suite 2006 is a bonanza for tile-game lovers. The convenient game browser organizes layouts by difficulty, number of levels, and several other factors. If you like, the game will choose a random layout for you.

The demo doesn't allow reshuffling, but the sheer number of included games will keep most players busy for the 30-day trial. If you do finish them, the built-in editor lets you quickly design more. The game's graphics--especially its three gorgeous sets of tiles--are quite good. You can configure the backgrounds and sounds, though you can't add your own, and the included ones are lackluster.

Advanced players will appreciate the statistical features, while beginners can quickly learn more by following the AI's advice. In sum, MahJong Suite 2006 is a superb choice for mah-jongg solitaire fans.

  MahJong Suite 2008

  Nothing new or really "custom" to this one

  by: Rocket Man on 18-Jul-2008 04:26:24 PM

  Cons: This is nothing new. There is no "real" customize ability here. Sure you can do the tired olde layout change but if you want to make your own tiles from your own graphics .... this "WILL NOT MAKE CUSTOM TILES" you can only use "their" tiles or download more of "their" tiles. This is another useless game belched out by someone who got past their first semester of programming at a local tech school.
