TOUHOU GENSOU MAHJONG

Horrible UI for setting table rule. You gotta go through 1 by 1 in a fixed list for 27 tables rules with no way to set what rule you want. There is no speed up for playing with cpu, so clearing nodes is a chore in adventure mode since it's just rng fest most of the time.

はじめに、私はこのゲームが好きだ。 それゆえに言わせてほしい。このゲームは非常に問題点を多く抱えている。 しかし、その問題は解決せずとも麻雀という遊びを一応は問題なく遊べるのである。なかなか愉快なものだ。 野良で半荘遊ぶにしても改善点はあるが、まぁゲームが崩壊しているなどの点は無い、そこはこのゲームの優れた点であろう。しかし細かいところ、例えば卓の細かなルール変更や、キャラクターの性能差などは改善できる部分多々あると思う。 このゲームの大部分は、他プレイヤーとの対局にあると思うが、私としては一人モードにも目を向けていただきたい。 プレイヤーにストレスのみを与えるお題をクリアし、見事異変を解決する気力を持つものこそがこのゲームを真に遊び尽くした者であると言えるかもしれない。 まぁ兎にも角にも、有料の麻雀ゲームとしてはほどほどな完成度で、イカサマ麻雀としても同じようなもの、おすすめはしないが、私はこのゲームで負けた時は台パンをよくしているので、真剣にゲームを遊ぶことはできていると思っている。 是非とも皆にもアドベンチャーモードをクリアしてもらいたいものである。 後から追加されたキャラほど、能力が複雑化し、使い勝手が悪くなるのは致命的な調整下手か間が抜けているかであろう。おしまい。

Gensou Mahjong is a complicated game to talk about, especially due to its history. There used to be a few other Touhou Mahjong games released before this one, which were significantly cheaper, but a lot harder to access legitimately. So for the rest of this review, I will talk about my experience with Gensou Mahjong and whether I think it's worthwhile to pick up or not. I picked this up very early, maybe not quite day 1, but pretty close to it, so I paid not quite full price, but it still ended up $70CAD. From the offset, well the art as well as the music, all of it is very professional; numerous artists you'll likely recognize if you're in the doujin scene at all. Presentation is only one part of the game though, so how is the gameplay? Well, it's Mahjong but with cheater abilities. Which is an amazing concept explored in the earlier entries when playing against other humans! Against the AI? I hope you're ready for a miserable time in Adventure Mode. Some missions got altered overtime, but overall it's...well it's fine for about 80% of the journey, but once you get to that last 20%, hoo boy. There are some missions that could easily take over 2 hours, if not longer to complete with unfortunate luck. I have 100% on the Adventure Mode (admittedly after a certain missions was nerfed), and it was an endurance that took several months, since I don't enjoy playing 10 hours a session typically. As stated earlier however, if you are playing against other human players, I think this game is incredible. You have a new level of depth with the character abilities and the boards, and if you don't have friends, around 10PM JST you'll likely find a number of lobbies available, so you can experience the game that way, which I think is my recommended way to play. As for the UI, it's pretty blatantly just mapping the Switch buttons to keyboard and putting tiny keybinds besides the buttons. It's pretty lazy, but on the plus side the mouse always exists. Doesn't stop it from looking kinda shoddy, but it's an easy enough thing to look past. I saw a number of reviews saying "you can't choose the music per board!" and that's...not true? It's in the Sound options. Now true you can't choose before playing said board when you're in a lobby, but that feels like a lesser complaint in my opinion. Should definitely be an option, but not a deal breaker. So as I said, this game is complicated because of the history. If you're willing to go through the hassles of running the older games, I think those are still your best bet. I have no idea how active those servers are at this point, but in terms of a single player experience at least, 4N is easily your best option. And when this first released, it was far more expensive than it is currently, so it was extremely hard to recommend, even on its first release sale. Over time however, it now has permanently decreased in price, and while it's still on the high end, the amount of talent that went into this game (composers, artists, etc.) justifies the price a bit more compared to before. I also know Steam charges fees to host games on its platform, so I'm not surprised at the higher price point. Despite that, I think this game is only worth picking up on sale. Summer Sale unfortunately is off at the time of this post, but I'm sure another sale will show up eventually, and when it does, maybe consider picking this game up if you like Mahjong! It's a unique experience you won't get anywhere else with the character abilities and varied art and music. If you REALLY love Mahjong you can buy it at full price and not be ripped off, but it is a high price to swallow.

Bought it on sale, interesting to see how the illustrations of the characters are a community effort made by different artists, but the art styles changing is a bit off putting. Better to buy when it goes on sale

[h1] パーティゲームとしては文句無し。[/h1] [h3] 一人用は… [/h3] 本作は一般の麻雀とは違い、所謂「イカサマ」を使用できるゲームです。 1キャラに1つ能力を持っており、条件を満たし使用することで打点強化、牌交換、他者妨害など戦局を有利に進めやすくします。 卓によってルールがあり、インフレ・デフレ卓のほか青天井ルールなども搭載。ただ細かい設定は不可能となっています。 非常に強い能力を持つキャラも多く決して良いバランスとは言えませんが、エンジョイ勢であるなら些細な問題でしょう。ちなみに人気キャラは強弱かかわらず明快な能力持ちです。困ったらレイマリ。 ネット対戦機能あり。ランクマはありませんが、前述のバランス問題もあり構想にないと思われます。自分で大会を開くなりしましょう。というか過疎なので開いて（） ここまでは肯定的な意見ですが、1人用のアドベンチャーモードは鬼畜です。頑張って全クリしましたが推奨しません。 お題をクリアしていく方式なのですが、「特定の役をアガれ」はまだいい方で「2人の持ち点をマイナス」「自分トップかつ特定の相手を最下位」と高難易度が平然と出てきます。強いキャラを使ってクリアするという手段は取れますが、全クリにはステージごとに指定されたキャラでないと不可能です。本当にきつい。 個人的に全クリで最も厳しかったのは「連荘なしのルール、残り3局で(青天井)15万点差をまくり2位になれ」。 わずか3局、4麻で倍満を出さなければいけない超難易度っぷりもさながら、相手の能力が「配牌にドラを入れさせない」ので基本手作りで倍満を目指さなければいけません。 しかも2026年1月現在、ここの最初の一局のみ卓ルールが正常に働かないバグがあるのでプレイはおすすめしません。 色々ありましたが、対人戦をする分には神ゲーだと思います。音楽も良質で卓ごとに設定できるオプション付き。CPU戦で感覚をつかみ、ぜひ対人でプレイしましょう！

가격이 조금이라도 낮았다면 평가는 더 좋앗을 것...
