## What is An Illustrated Japan?

An Illustrated Japan turns a journey across Japan into a relaxing picture-puzzle adventure. Travel a beautiful map of all 47 prefectures and piece together stunning real photos of the country's most scenic places — from Tokyo Tower and Kyoto's temples to Hokkaido's snow and Okinawa's beaches.

Start in Tokyo and unlock your way across the country, one prefecture at a time. Every stage is an art cut into a sliding picture puzzle: drag and swap the pieces to merge them back into the full image. Clear stages to earn rewards, collect Keys, and reveal the next region of Japan.

HOW TO PLAY
• Tap a prefecture on the map to open its stages
• Drag and swap tiles to rebuild the photo before time runs out
• Clear a prefecture to earn a Key, then unlock a neighbouring region
• Progress from quick 3×3 warm-ups to challenging 7×7 puzzles

FEATURES
• A hand-crafted map of all 47 Japanese prefectures
• Hundreds of arts of Japan's famous sights and hidden gems
• Smooth drag-to-swap puzzle play, from Easy to Super Hard
• Relaxing music and satisfying animations
• Helpful items — Preview, Add Time and Hint — for when you're stuck
• Collect and revisit the scenic spots you've completed
• Replay cleared puzzles at Super Hard for a real test
• Play in English, 日本語 or 中文

Whether you have five minutes or a quiet afternoon, An Illustrated Japan is the cosy way to see the country and give your brain a gentle workout. Piece by piece, prefecture by prefecture — how much of Japan can you complete?
