Mahjongus: The Warlock Within Launches on Apple's Mac App Store

AUSTIN, Texas — July 16, 2026 — Publisher Duality Interactive and developer JetDogs Studios are proud to announce that Mahjongus: The Warlock Within, the second installment in the popular magical puzzle series, is now available for macOS gamers worldwide via Apple’s Mac App Store. Building upon the beloved play mechanics of its predecessor, this sequel delivers a deeply immersive fantasy narrative tightly woven into classic tile-matching gameplay.

In Mahjongus: The Warlock Within, players are pulled into a high-stakes supernatural mystery following a dark betrayal at the Academy of Magic. An insidious, ancient warlock has forcibly seized control of the body of Victor Graves, a renowned scholar of runic sorcery. Trapped as a conscious but powerless observer within his fractured mind, Victor must watch as the dark entity uses his voice, reputation, and influence to manipulate students and raise a loyal, sinister army from within the Academy’s inner circle. To break the warlock’s hold and expose the growing conspiracy, players must solve a massive array of intricately designed mahjong boards, locate hidden artifacts, and systematically unravel dark enchantments. Each board cleared weakens the warlock's grip, providing critical clues that bring Victor one step closer to reclaiming his identity and saving the Academy from total ruin.

Key Game Features:

• Engaging Fantasy Narrative: Experience a rich, high-stakes story of deception, magical intrigue, and identity theft that seamlessly drives the puzzle-solving action forward.
• 150 Challenging Mahjong Levels: Master over a hundred uniquely constructed tile layouts designed to test both casual players and seasoned puzzle veterans.
• Integrated Hidden Object Challenges: Break up the tile-matching action with beautifully illustrated investigation scenes that uncover hidden clues and advance the plot.
• Stunning Mystical Environments: Explore gorgeously detailed, atmospheric visual backgrounds rendering the grand halls, forbidden chambers, and secret libraries of the Academy.
• Immersive Soundscapes: Lose yourself in a sweeping, thematic musical score that dynamically mirrors the narrative tension and magical wonder.
