MahJong

What is MahJong?

Bakno MahJong is a macOS puzzle game published by Bakno that focuses on the single-player, solitaire-style form of mahjong tile matching rather than the four-player tabletop game. The official product page describes random tile arrangements, multiple tile and table sets, 3D viewing, board rotation, zoom, and background music. Users typically encounter it as a downloadable casual game from Bakno's website, where it is offered as a free-to-try title with paid unlocking or subscription options. Its main purpose is entertainment, especially for players who want a polished desktop version of the classic matching format with replayable layouts. On Mac, it behaves like a normal standalone app rather than a system component, so any related files are usually app-specific support, cache, or preference data created after installation and use. The bundle ID provided, com.bakno.mahjong, is consistent with Bakno's MahJong product naming.

Safety overview

Status: Mostly safe

This is a known commercial game from Bakno and is not generally associated with macOS system risk. The main practical concern is only normal app data such as saved settings, local game data, and purchase or trial state if you remove related files.

Recommendation: Keep it if you play the game or want to preserve its settings and local data. If you no longer use it, removing the app is usually low risk, but review any related support or preference files first if you want a cleaner uninstall.
