Leon's Mahjong 🀄️ - Press Kit

Game Overview

Leon's Mahjong is a retro-inspired Mahjong solitaire game that brings back the charm of classic 16-bit gaming. Designed with pixel-perfect graphics, it offers a nostalgic yet modern take on the traditional tile-matching puzzle game. Every board in Leon's Mahjong is 100% solvable, thanks to a custom algorithm that ensures players never get stuck with unsolvable configurations.

Unlike the majority of mobile games today, Leon's Mahjong is entirely ad-free and IAP-free, delivering a pure gaming experience without distractions or monetization tactics. It stands as a direct challenge to the dominant free-to-play model in the mobile gaming industry, proving that games are much better without intrusive ads, paywalls, and manipulative engagement strategies. Players can simply enjoy the relaxing, challenging nature of Mahjong—without interruptions.

Inspired by Lucas Dima's childhood memories of playing Mahjong solitaire with his father on an Amiga 1000, the game blends classic gameplay with a personal story of family, nostalgia, and retro computing. Now available for iOS and macOS, Leon's Mahjong aims to bring back the simple joy of gaming, free from modern-day monetization constraints.
