Editor's review of Gekko Mahjongg World Championship

- "Gekko Mahjongg World Championship"
- Version reviewed: Gekko Mahjongg World Championship 2.1
A unique championship mode distinguishes this outstanding mah-jongg solitaire program. In the trial version of Gekko Mahjongg World Championship, the Classic mode only unlocks the traditional solitaire layout, with 35 other layouts displayed, but not playable. Though that one layout will keep you occupied, the Championship mode blew us away. You're presented with a series of puzzles that increase in difficulty, and you compete for the best solving time. The first few levels take a minute or less each, and the time rises quickly from there. You can upload your scores for both Classic and Championship modes, though users of the trial version get docked 1,000 points.
The soundtrack files are fine, but we preferred playing to our own MP3s. The graphics look great, and you can customize the experience by downloading new sets or by putting JPEGs into the backgrounds folder. In another not-too-bothersome limitation, you can only download two expansions total, whether it's a tile set or music or background or theme. The program's only flaw was the lack of a hint function, but you can undo any number of moves. We heartily recommend Gekko Mahjongg World Championship.
