Honestly, a super awesome beginner-friendly way to learning Riichi Mahjong. I wanted to learn how to play because I've been checking out the original famicom releases from 1983 and a mahjong game is one of them! I didn't want the cartridge just gathering dust on my shelf, so I asked a friend to help me learn how to play, and voila, wouldn't you know, he sends me to Mahjong Soul, and I couldn't be happier! Because of this website, I officially understand how to (shittily) play a game of Riichi Mahjong!
I'm someone who is super not into gacha or throwing anime girls into stuff randomly either, so the idea of Mahjong Soul initially didn't interest me too much, but honestly the way its all handled is marvelous! I truly expected it to be more intrusive with its gacha aspect, but ignoring it doesn't hinder the game at all for me. The girls can be a little annoying if I'm being super picky (nyaa~), but honestly they're fine characters, and they don't demand much attention. All together, Mahjong Soul is a really great way to learn, practice, and battle your friends in Riichi Mahjong!! It helps me understand the rules and what I can/can't do amazingly! Now I can't wait to kick some 1983 Famicom AI ass.
4/5

East 1 Repeat 3. audience stares at me in anticipation. the player to my west has shot himself in the head. player to my north disconnected to have sex. player to my east has an emoji macro off cooldown. he discards a 7-pin.
"Ron"
my greasy hands flip my tiles down to reveal my single wait riichi bet, value of 1 han. pants full of shit from anxiety, I stand up and face the crowd.
"Mahjong SOUL!"

Akagi and Kaiji lied to me
has made me suicidal on several occasions
yeah the game isn't (is) rigged (if i lose)
"That's it. That's the tile I need. Tsumo, Riichi, Ippatsu, Pinfu, Haitei raoyue, Honitsu OR rather Chin'itsu, Ikkitsuukan, dora 4, ALSO uradora 4 - Kazoe-yakuman. I'm east dealer - 21 han; Hanchan, Runaway victory."
fun. soulful. easy to learn
the minute long loading times make me feel like im really there, shuffling the tiles
Japonesa de 2 metros e os peitos
mfw dude to my left calls riichi and i read pin half flush in discards so i discard 1 sou instantly into 13 orphans. WHO CALLS RIICHI ON 13 ORPHANS
The main reason I gained interest into Mahjong was because of the anime Akagi (which is amazing and you should go watch it)
Fun way to play Mahjong online. I'm not gonna explain how to play here but it's kind of like poker in a way but with multiple ways to build a "hand". Just playing through this game is how I learned to play Mahjong. Probably can't play in person too well since I'm used to the digital game blocking illegal moves.
Also I do enjoy the anime girl aesthetic a bit. Keeps the game cute looking and it's fun to spam high pitch sounds while someone is making a turn. Also really fun to have the Iwao Akagi collab character since he's an old ass motherfucker playing with cute anime girls. Here's hoping to a Kaiji collab or at least bringing back the Akagi collab so I can get the Akagi character

As an introduction to mahjong it's great! Very beginner friendly and it's made me want to play mahjong seriously and git gud.
As a gacha? You can only roll for cosmetics which is fine but like.. there's basically no sensible way to get free gems. And I've yet to find a story mode lol, but I think that's on me.

That's how you make a gacha game

sometimes your yakuza 100% completion playthrough stops dead in its tracks because of mahjong
mine stopped because i got really really into mahjong

A very good and streamlined version of mahjong. No need to touch the gacha elements to enjoy a quick east round.
i did 2 yakumans today
Even if you don't wanna engage in the gacha, they're nice enough to give you the best character right from the start anyway, Ichihime is just perfect.
Also the game part is pretty fun too I guess!

fun game, easy for me to pick up after putting down for a while. ive never played mahjong before this and i think the anime girls and bishoujens are. uh. Something? not really my thing. i appreciate that the game is less focused on gacha, though i wish it were easier to get new characters in general. i would love to get the dog guy but i will never spend money on a gacha.
that said, great game for teaching you mahjong & it lacks text chat so you won't get yelled at except maybe with reacts. i think it's better that way
can we get more furries, also? like just animal people? come on
