SM Choukyoushi Hitomi Vol. 3 is one of those obscure Japan-only SNES titles that makes you go, "Wait, what is this?" At first glance, it looks like a typical mahjong game—tiles, numbers, the usual stuff. But then you realize it's actually a training sim where you're coaching a girl named Hitomi through... well, let's just say it's not your grandma's mahjong.

The gameplay's a weird mix of tile-matching puzzles and visual novel-style choices. You pick moves for Hitomi, and depending on how well you do, the story branches in different directions. Some routes get surprisingly intense, while others just fizzle out if you mess up too much. The pixel art’s decent for a mid-90s niche title, though don’t expect anything mind-blowing.

Honestly, it’s more interesting as a cultural oddity than a must-play. If you’re into weird retro Japan-only stuff or just want to see how bizarre SNES games could get, it’s worth a look. Otherwise, you’re not missing much.
