Double Yakuman Junior is one of those weird little Game Boy gems—a stripped-down mahjong game that somehow nails the feel of playing in a smoky Japanese parlor, just without the actual smoke. You’ve got your basic tile-matching, your aggressive CPU opponents who somehow always pull the exact tile they need, and that satisfying *click* when you finally complete a hand. It’s not flashy, but there’s something oddly addictive about it once you get into the rhythm.

First time I booted it up, I had no clue what I was doing—just slapping tiles together hoping something stuck. But after a few rounds, the patterns start making sense. The AI’s brutal though; don’t expect mercy if you hesitate too long. Perfect for quick sessions when you want that old-school handheld vibe without the commitment of a full RPG. Still holds up if you’re into retro mahjong sims.
