Gets more negativity than it deserves. Plays identically to mahjong soul. The gacha is more friendly to f2ps than mahjong soul and all outfits including the base ones are all animated as opposed to only a select few expensive outfits in mahjong soul. Characters actually always read off the yaku in this game while in mahjong soul they only do so if you have max bond. There are some revealing outfits in this game but you can hide them in the settings by turning on family friendly mode, and there's also the option in the settings to mute the voice of every individual character so if there's a character you don't like hearing, you can mute them. The tutorial is also better in this. This game doesn't deserve the negativity it's getting. I think mahjong soul is easier to keep up with casually however due to the lack of a battlepass.

The playerbase in mahjong soul is also larger, in riichicity it's easy to find games for low to mid ranks, but the highest rank in the game is pretty much a ghost town. I'm nowhere near that rank so i'm having no problems fighting games, but i tried to spectate high rank games and there were no games being played in the highest rank.

I started with mahjong soul first before starting riichicity and I think both games are worth playing so i fully intend to alternate between the two of htem. Don't let this game's mixed rating stop you from trying it out.
