Ever tried mahjong on the GBA? Tetsuman Advance: Menky is one of those weirdly satisfying deep cuts—like, it looks simple at first (just tiles, some basic menus), but the second you start a match, it feels legit. The AI doesn’t mess around—I lost my first three games before realizing I’d been ignoring half the scoring rules.

It’s got that early 2000s handheld vibe: chunky pixel art, no frills, just straight-up riichi mahjong with a surprising amount of depth. No English patch, so you’ll be squinting at kanji if you don’t know the terms, but the tile symbols are universal. Pro tip: the "Menky" mode walks you through hands like a grumpy sensei, which helps when you’re stuck.

Not gonna lie, it’s niche—but if you’ve got a soft spot for GBA oddities or want a no-nonsense mahjong fix, this one’s weirdly hard to put down.
