This is an educational game that allows you to learn the world map as if you play a jigsaw puzzle produced by Digital Gene. This game is designed to be simple yet fun to play. Not only people who like the world map, but also who are not good at geography can enjoy playing it. The app is best suited for people who want to learn the world map or students who want to get ready for the exams. Or why don't you try this game to stay sharp during your spare time? You can improve your knowledge as you play the game aiming for the best time or compete against players from all over the world. You can also collect picture panels when you satisfy certain conditions. So do your best to get all of them. For players who are not confident enough to test their knowledge about the whole countries of the world, the game also features the [Quick] mode that gives you questions from 20 random countries in the world, the [Area] mode that contains questions based on areas like Europe and Asia, and the [Selection] mode that allows you to choose the field you are interested in such as "the world's leading soccer countries" or "Major tourist destinations from Japan". The [World] mode, which can test your knowledge about the whole countries of the world, also contains the Expert mode that doesn't show the border of the countries. Challenge yourself if you have a very good knowledge of geography. When you're stuck on finding the location of a country, use the [Assist] function. It will help you to navigate the correct location without hassling yourself. However you will be added a 30 seconds penalty when you use the [assist] function. If you want to achieve a higher ranking, it'd better not to use this function. (*) Some countries are omitted from the game for the sake of expediency. Countries are also expressed in the simplified writing or alias. The country names and borders used in this game are based on the information as at May 2012. -------------------------------- [New modes Master and Maniac] In response to various requests to include all countries, we have added the new Master and Maniac modes which include countries that were omitted previously because the puzzle pieces were too small. (*) Even for regions that claim autonomy as countries, only pieces with 10 or more approved countries will be registered as a country. (*) The number of countries in the Master and Maniac modes may change in future. (*) Due to the characteristics of the puzzle, countries whose areas are too small may not be included in modes other than the Master and Maniac modes.

Clear matching colors. Find a better move. Beat your own best. SameGameNow is a puzzle you can play at your own pace, with no time limit. MAKE THE NEXT GROUP Select matching blocks connected horizontally or vertically, then tap again to clear them. Blocks fall into the gaps, and empty columns slide left. Clear a small group to connect a bigger one, or take the group you have now—the order is up to you. TWO TOOLS, ONE GOOD MOMENT Clear One removes any single block. Swap exchanges two blocks of different colors, even when they are far apart. Each new game includes one free use of each tool. Choosing a target spends nothing until you confirm. After the free use, complete an ad to earn one extra use of your chosen tool. Each tool allows two uses per game: one free and one from an ad. Extra uses apply only to that game and do not carry over to a new game or a same-board replay. BUILD YOUR SCORE Bigger groups earn more block points. Finish with 10 or fewer blocks remaining for a bonus, and aim for a clean sweep. TRY THE SAME BOARD AGAIN Replay straight from the results. When a previous result exists for the same board and rules, compare your score and remaining blocks. Try a different order and work toward one personal best. PLAY A LITTLE, OR TAKE YOUR TIME • Save your current board and continue later • Learn by tapping a small practice board • Distinct block patterns help you tell colors apart • English and Japanese, with light and dark appearances • Regular play requires no account or internet connection REMOVE END-OF-GAME ADS Remove End-of-Game Ads is a one-time purchase. It removes ads shown when leaving results for another game or Home. After purchasing, optional ads for an extra tool use remain available only when you choose to watch.
