About this game

Learn Japanese Mahjong the fastest way - by doing. Riichi Dojo is a learn-by-quiz trainer that takes you from your first tile to reading real hands, so you finally understand riichi mahjong instead of just memorizing it.

Ratings and reviews

EDIT: they fixed the practice section, +1 star. information is extremely useful and presented in a clear and intuitive order/format. -1 star because the grading is kinda arbitrary and the "practice" section for previously missed questions doesn't seem to work properly.

Incredible app! Has all sorts of tests and trainers to improve your game, and is useful for memorizing the names of yakus. Really great way to train during idle moments if you're trying to learn Riichi Mahjong.

So far so good. I've learned a lot already. The ads are small and unintrusive, I appreciate that.
