Mahjong and Friends Japan is a Japanese Riichi Mahjong(麻雀/麻將/麻将) game based on the Riichi Competition Rules (RCR). The game features all Mahjong Hands defined in the rules.
MJ&F supports multiplayer through either Bluetooth(*1) or TCP(Intranet/Internet/Wifi/Hotspot(*2)), 4-player supported.
*1) Bluetooth game requires Android 2.1+.
*2) Hosting a "Hotspot" game requires Android 2.2+.
MJ&F supports in-game auto save. So that you don't have to worry about losing your game state on a transportation rush.

Want others know you've won with a "Big Four Winds" Mahjong Hand? No problem! You can always use the Capture feature to take result screenshot and save it to the SD storage, or use the Share feature to submit the screenshot to your favorite social network.
**When playing in network mode, ALWAYS use the same versions for all devices.
***dear all, please noted that Bluetooth is a short distance communication technology, it needs both devices in short distance (e.g. within 3 meters) to establish a connection.
(*update maybe frequent sometimes, please turn on auto-update if you feel this harassing, always check change log to see what's being updated and decide whether to apply, thanks!)

Honestly, I have yet to find a better app for playing riichi on mobile. Clean interface, explains the rules really well, and it's easy to do local multiplayer.

Has to be the best Japanese mahjong app for the android. However it has a couple of flaws I would like to see fixed. First there's no option to have red Dora in the game. Second there's no list of valid yaku and their values. I'm used to seeing all simples be worth no yaku when the hand is open. There should be options to change some of these commonly variable rules. Also the AI is kinda bad even with Strong AI is on. And finally, it really bothers me that the game uses pung and kong instead of pon and kan.

The only things missing are optional rules like red dora, kyuushu kyuuhai and some nonstandard yaku

The game is quite fun, but the complete lack of Japanese terms hurts it. It is riichi after all so where are the Japanese terms? It'd be a five star otherwise. I'm hoping for Japanese terminology and hand names in future updates.

Some of the yaku don't seem to register properly but otherwise it's not a bad game. I agree with the review about leaving the Japanese riichi term intact. No sense calling it one thing in the title but another in the game.

This is the best Japanese rules mahjong game I can find. Well worth paying for. Free version has ads. A must install if you want to play/practice Riichi mahjong, but you dont have a set/3 partners.

I love playing this. But last update it hard crashed my Avail when I got it up again the phone had lost its 3G ability. I bought a Galaxy Exhibit 4G and its already froze that once. Prior to that update it worked really well.

It is a great riichi mahjong game. One of the best available. However it is missing some critical features or settings. Red fives(as a setting), kuitan or open tanyao(accepted or not as a setting), chi pon kan instead of chow pung kong, and lastly a setting to enable Japanese terms for the different yaku/yakuman and Japanese terms for the scores (mangan, haneman, baiman, sanbaiman, yakuman). Get at least the first three and this is a five star app.
