Pyramid of Mahjong: tile matching puzzle instal the new version for ipod

We recommend TileSpeak with a 3 out of 5 rating.

With those two improvements we would be willing to give it an extra 1/2 star. The buttons for Next Level and Undo are close together, it can be quite easy to accidentally abort your game with Yes/No confirmation. There are some areas for improvement, the game really needs a save option, we hope the developers add this. We played TileSpeak Mahjong for a couple of hours, Mahjong is that kind of low impact addictive game. TileSpeak is a much more low impact and relaxing way to learn word pronunciation. Recently we reviewed K1 Chinese which taught 400 Chinese characters, including the brush strokes needed to write them. When you select the matching piece the word is spoke again which reinforces the memory. The trick with Mahjong both tiles you want to remove must be on the outer edge, the 3D nature of the tile stack also adds to the games challenge.ĭuring the normal course of the game you select edge tiles, if its an allowed piece, an audio clip of that word is played. Each tile contains a single character and they are stacked like a gently sloping pyramid. It's played on a flat surface, using rectangular pieces (tiles), similar in shape to domino tiles.

This versions is commonly called 'Solitaire Mahjongg', the basic objective is to remove tiles in matching pairs, until all are gone. Mahjong is a matching game with a rather mysterious history in China. The Mandarin tiles are presented in Simplified Chinese characters, the Cantonese in Traditional Chinese characters which makes for a nice mix. You are able to select from Mandarin/Cantonese to be spoken as you play.
