“Does the best job of teaching mahjong in any of the games I've tried, and is generous enough for f2p that you can collect characters and cosmetics without having to open your wallet. Also has a SFW mode if you don't…”

“It's a mahjong game. What you're here for is the characters. This game is gooner friendly, but MS is getting close to the level this game is on. It's a gacha game, I understand that. It's my choice to gamble, I…”

“Gacha systems spread across like 15 different menus and 5 concurrently-running limited-time events all with their own objectives and daily quests are pretty cringe, but that's par for the course for Gacha games really.…”

“Do not trust the steam review rating on this game. If you sort it by only showing English reviews, the game actually sits at a Mostly Positive rating, which is much more fair. It seems like a lot of the Chinese players who got a bad luck streak blame it on the game, claiming it…”
— a player, Steam review · 41 hrs played“as far as the mahjong part of the game is amazing, especially the lessons you can take to learn how to play, everything else feels more like an average gacha game rather than a game centered around mahjong... not too fond of that many menus with a million different gacha banners”
— a player, Steam review · 1 hrs played“Mahjong Soul got me into Mahjong so Riichi City could make me want to quit. The gacha live service elements are overwhelming, and made my experience feel more like I was hopping on to do my live service chores than to play Mahjong. And for what? If I do it every day for a week I…”
