[h1]Gameplay:[/h1] The main gameplay of mystic land exists out of a mah-jong like tile game and hidden object game mix along with a bonus ‘wheel of fortune’ that has various mini games like bingo, memory, tangram etc. The wheel’s mini games are skippable if you don’t feel like doing them but keep in mind you can get jade stones with them. These jade stones can also be found and picked up throughout the levels – got to admit it happened often they didn’t catch my eye- and are used for hints and others. A bit of a currency for when you’re stuck. I haven’t used any of them so far. The tile like mah-jong game was a refreshing take in my opinion, as playing it like this was completely new to me and a little later on another fun variation got added where the tile is hidden if you don’t hover your mouse over it.

A good HOG, not the best from MixoGames but still enjoyable. Recommended.

trying to find the pearls before the end of each game

I've enjoyed this developer's twistingo games, so I thought this was worth a gamble. While it's equally well executed, I just don't enjoy the collection of minigames here nearly as much. The two main puzzle types are hidden object (search by name, or by outline), and a mahjong themed tile matching game. The hidden object games are decent, with well hidden objects, but just are not that much fun with a lot of staring at the computer screen to find the last few hidden objects. The tile-matching is just a boring zero-strategy slog, with a set of five tiles along the bottom that you search for among the tiles on the board. There are also a large set of more enjoyable "bonus" games which you get assigned randomly between hidden object or matching levels. Weird design mechanic. On the whole I can't say this is bad, exactly, with excellent graphics and music, and smooth controls, but I also have many other games I'd rather play.

A very relaxing variant of mahjong! Highly recommend!

Keeps you entertained for the money. Found it very good with different games to play
