How it feels

A lighthearted, physics-driven puzzle game where you stack Japanese prefectures, combining matching ones to evolve them into bigger regions, with a whimsical, darkly humorous narration.

What players say

Players love the absurd, misshapen prefectures that make stacking infuriating and hilarious. Many prefer it to Suika Game, calling it both more challenging and more rewarding, especially with the added Survivors mode. A vocal group delights in the voice lines, especially 'Chiba! Shiga! Saga!' Others warn the game crashes if you make two Hokkaido.
