Review
- Carribean Mahong –
3 and ½ stars
Setting& game modes
The theme is the Carribean Islands.
With 12 islands and 4 layouts for each, you have 48 tile layouts for game play.
You earn/collect postcards from your "cruise" by completing the different levels.
You can go "island hopping" and select the tile layouts that you like to play.
You can select from 4 different tile sets.
Graphics:
There is a good deal of annimation.
The tiles and scenes are very colorful.
For me personally, "too much color" and animation is distracting in a matching game.
Bright colors on white backgrouds tend to hurt my eyes, which is why I change the background color on my personal screen. In a game youre colorchices are set by the designers. My particular majong of choice would be those with darker color tiles and less annimation.
But, bright colored boards go over big for the younger players.
Over all a game better be outstanding in order for me to play one with annoying color schemes.
I must give them credit for what is obviously a lot of work that went into designing this game.
However after loading the demo more than 4 times I still have 28 minutes left. Let me say that Majong is one of my favorite games, but, I'll have to pass on this one.
