About the Game

⚠ This game is entirely in Japanese.

The interface, text, and voice are Japanese only — there is no English localization. It is made for Japanese speakers, and for anyone learning Japanese or fascinated by Japan's geography. Every place name comes with furigana and read-aloud audio, which many Japanese learners find useful.

Every corner of Japan, in one puzzle

"Japan Map City Puzzle" is a huge geography puzzle covering all of Japan — from the 47 prefectures down to cities, wards, towns and villages. Whatever town you live in, or grew up in, it is almost certainly in here.

Massive volume

  • Over 1,700 municipalities, from prefectures down to individual towns and wards

  • Around 1,900 puzzle pieces in total

  • Hokkaido alone has 184 municipalities

Choose how you play

  • Puzzle — drag scattered pieces into place to complete the map

  • Quiz — answer "Where is ___?" by clicking the map

  • Study — explore names and locations at your own pace, with audio

  • Auto mode — hold a piece and watch them snap into place one after another

  • Silhouette Quiz — guess the town from its outline alone

Mountains and rivers too

Mountain ranges, famous peaks, and major rivers across Japan, split into regional courses.

Town Fortune

A daily fortune for your favorite town — work, love, money, health and study shown on a radar chart, plus its national ranking and the "town of the day" for all of Japan.

Full controller support

Play entirely with a gamepad, from menus to puzzles (Xbox / PlayStation / Switch button prompts are detected automatically). Mouse is fully supported too.

Learn by playing

No rote memorization required. The names, shapes and locations of Japan's prefectures and municipalities sink in as you play.
