So why five stars? 1) Choice of tile sets. I’m not sure if I’ve ever written a positive review of a game only a few hours after downloading, but I am so very impressed with this one, I will rate this version early. It’s worth the irritating pop up games at the end of each puzzle because it doesn’t rip you off You can also change the cards to make it more difficult or easy for younger children. The backgrounds you can change for free are beautiful. I would have given the game 4-1/2 stars if possible. I would give them ***** stars because they do give you stars for getting through the puzzles and only costs you a single star to get a re-shuffle. Would be nice if you could pay a small amount and skip the ads. When I sit down to play the game, I want to go through the different puzzles without having to wait 30 seconds or more. Why I marked them down is if you don’t get all 3 stars in each puzzle, you get a pop up advertisement for another game. This is one of the better games because they’re not constantly harassing you to buy coins, tokens or something in order to pass the puzzle and get to the next one. (And no, I don't know any of the developers. They're the best free apps I've ever played, but it's worth throwing a few bucks at the developers for such spectacularly well-designed games.

Get these, and then pay for the upgrades.

There's one in *this* app (currently #1186, though they change the numbering as they add boards) that I'm convinced is unsolvable. While the only noticeable difference is that Titan is in portrait mode and Epic is in landscape - so it's just a matter of tilting the iPad sideways to play one or the other - I've managed to solve all 1650 boards available in Titan, but only 1649 in Epic.

And the customizability is nearly endless. These games are so beautiful, so relaxing, and so addictive that I've spent eight months solving the 3300 boards they offer (plus the new daily games!), and I may just start all over again. I played a lot of mahjong games over the years before I found the two from Kristanix - and now I've pretty much stopped playing anything else.
