Instead of a flat pile of tiles, Mahjong World builds its puzzles as 3D objects that you can spin in any direction. It follows Mahjong 3D from Famobi and sends the old tile game on a trip around the globe, with new locations and some rather odd shapes to take apart.
The tiles form a three-dimensional object, so a match you need may sit on the far side until you rotate it. Turning the shape around is half of the puzzle.
Diamonds. Gathering every one of them is the long-term goal, and the stages use a wide variety of items along the way.
The levels are spread across the continents, and the game openly asks whether you can explore all of them. Players who prefer a traditional flat layout can stay with Mahjong Classic.
