This app is terrific for keeping score in Riichi Mahjong I can understand being skeptical about paying for an app that does something as complicated and esoteric as scoring mahjong but this app really nails it The interface can be a little tricky and you need to explore a bit to figure out exactly what to do but otherwise it s perfect You can enter what tiles were in your hand and it will be scored for you automatically There s also a summary page that shows you the breakdown of how both the han and fu of your hand were calculated And if that s not your thing you can always just manually enter the amounts The app is designed to track a whole Han Chan and keeps track of everything from missed Riichi points to the current bonus round There are also settings for some optional rules like forbidding open Tanyao All in all a really good app that covers everything explains everything and just works Well worth a measly two bucks                 Excellent For Riichi Rathenix

The hand scorer doesn t recognize a lot of limit hands and won t allow nonstandard hands all pairs 13 orphans etc to be entered Still a useful little app though             Missing features I wanted Akiko86

As a new Riichi player trying to get their head around the complicated scoring rules this app is amazing and does exactly what I need in my games The only reason I don t give five stars is some really annoying UI lag between clicking a button and the app reacting is about a second delay In any case thanks to the dev                 Awesome The Great TK

It was great at first but now I can t scroll down and can t choose the tiles for the winning hand plz update                     Update Badfishjr

For the Japanese Scoring there is no faint dora text in the concealed or exposed areas Please fix this as that really affects the score on many occasions I see how to do dora now ug not that intuitive You have to tap on the tile that is on the board I like how that works but it could be much more intuitively designed That said This is a great App This will allow me to play and teach how to play Mahjong Thanks Well worth the 1 99 and then some There really is an App for everything                 Cool App but wereoctopus

I m so excited to have found this app and one that functions exactly as I d hopped I ve been trying to learn mahjong scoring for a few months now while playing mahjong with my friends to whom I introduced mahjong It has become extremely frustrating to compute the points of each winning hand by constantly checking score charts This app has allowed my friends and I to fully enjoy the game while trying to keep to the heart of the scoring system rather than track hands won The hand scorer function has a very intuitive interface and quickly computed the total score for each hand You can then pass the score over to the game tracker which enables point exchanges between players in app The prevailing and round winds are tracked and accounted for during scoring and point exchange I have found web apps and software that manages these same functions but having the app on my iPhone 4 and Ipad allows me to keep the game space clutter free without the worry of Internet access I would suggest an option in a future release to train score computation with guidance from the software and maybe hand scoring drills                     Most helpful and in English too Cyphy

This app works kind of When composing your hand the Tile Keyboard selector only appears when you hold your finger down in the empty space under the scoring area This is probably just a bug I am using an iPhone 4 and iOS 4 1             Needs some work Wallatz

This app would be perfect except the scoring for the European Classical rules are off on some major items The exposed pung of dragons should be 4 and not 8 The concealed pung of dragons should be 8 and not 16 The exposed kong of dragons should be 16 and not 32 Finally the concealed kong of dragons should be 32 and not 64 Hopefully this will be corrected in the future I don t know about the other scoring systems             Not quite Penguine5
