Editors’ Review
Moonlight Mahjong is a solitaire mahjong game in which you have to match two identical tiles in a pile, trying to remove all the tiles and be left with a clean playing field. Moonlight Mahjong has been available on iPad and iPhone for a while now, and has been ported to the Mac. Moonlight Mahjong installs easily.
Moonlight Mahjong offers four different types of games. The traditional tile-matching scramble game is the default, but there's also a challenge mode with no undo, a puzzle board version, and a relaxation mode, which won't let you lose. The graphics in Moonlight Mahjong are stunning, with lovely backgrounds and several designs of tiles. The 3D appearance is convincing. Moonlight Mahjong is probably the most attractive Solitaire Mahjong game we've seen on any platform. Gameplay is traditional, with undo and reshuffles available depending on game mode.
Moonlight Mahjong is a winner of a mahjong game graphically, and the game is fun to play if you like tile-matching games. While not the traditional four-player mahjong game, but the simpler solitaire variant, this is a solid game and it is a free download.
What’s new in version 1.1
- Support for high resolution graphics on the MacBook Pro with Retina Display.
- Proper full screen support on OS X 10.7 "Lion" and later.
- When you lose in Scramble mode, the "Try Again" button goes back only 5 levels, instead of all the way back to level 1 (assuming you made it past level 6).
- The "Lion Scramble" and "Dragon Scramble" game modes are replaced by "New Game - Level 10" and "New Game - Level 20" menu options, once you've reached 100,000 and 300,000 points in Scramble mode. This amounts to the same functionality as before, but is perhaps clearer.
- A "New Game - Level 30" menu option is enabled once you've scored 600,000 points in Scramble mode.
- You can now use the space bar to quickly pause or unpause game.
- Added an option in Preferences to turn off free tile highlighting, for those who have asked. You are encouraged to keep tile hightlighting turned on; it is part of the game.
- Fixed an issue where the app would crash on startup if certain system fonts were disabled.
- Support for OS X Sandbox security.
