Kitchen Mahjong Classic

I never would have guessed that I would become addicted to matching tiles, but Kitchen Mahjong Classic has got me hooked. This game is all about matching identical Mahjong tiles, but with a kitchen backdrop and an aim to clear the board before the timer expires. And let me tell you, it’s exhilarating to pilot myself against the clock, trying to surpass my own high score — though if I trip and need the tiles to get shuffled, the score resets to zero. Just enough spice is to be found in the hint of strategy required to determine when to dispense the three hints available per level. Some fellow players noted the difficulty in keeping your score, as it resets whenever you have to scramble the tiles — it all comes down to that one high-scoring level. And those hints? Gold dust. They are your best buddies when it comes to getting out of sticky situations. There’s also something satisfying about jumping back in with a new set of hints after every win. While it’s disappointing to lose all progress on a scramble, the challenge pulls me back in.

Though simple, Kitchen Mahjong Classic delivers a delightful challenge that’s easy to get into but hard to stop playing. So if you’re looking for a game to pass a few minutes (or hours), this could be your cup of tea.
