Mahjongg Artifacts comes to the iPhone
Out with the new, in with the old
Let's face it: tile-based puzzle games don't tend to grow from the tree of originality. That doesn't mean that there isn't any enjoyment to be had, though.
When a developer manages to get a puzzle game right, you can be hooked for hours, madly trying to better a score or complete a particularly tricky level that's inducing hair loss.
Mahjongg Artifacts was one such puzzler that got it right. Not only was it top of the class when came out on PC, but it brought with it a slightly different slant on the genre.
Now, developer G5 Entertainment has seen fit to bring the original to your trusty iPhone, and for some reason it arrives after the release of sequel Mahjongg Artifacts 2.
No, we don't know why we received the sequel before the original either.
Mahjongg Artifacts is already out on the App Store (click 'Buy It!' to jump straight in), and you can also check out the sequel we reviewed a while back.
