A useful tool to teach Japanese mahjong, which is essential to achieve 100% in many Yakuza games.

The "lessons" are presented as a dialog between 2 girls - which means reading unnecessary comments. I would've much rather preferred a simple presentation. It starts telling you to discard tiles before even explaining how the tiles are distributed or how they are set on the table. This is a detail, but when they are talking why is the background a library and not majong parlor? The names of the hands used are all mixed up, English, Japanese, Chinese, all together. No settings whatsoever.

It's my first Mahjong game I played. It's not just simple in learning but it's good and interesting too .. I enjoyed the character, the arts and the game in all. There's one suggestion.. can you make the tiles appear in the yaku list under the name of it .. because it'll be good at searching. Thanks for your funny game.
