Age Of Japan Overview
Age of Japan was one of those games you'd find in the late 2000s, tucked away on a Flash game portal. It fit right in with the era's simple, browser based puzzles. The game had a clear Japanese aesthetic, with art featuring temples and traditional patterns.
You control a cursor, clicking to swap adjacent tiles on a grid. Your goal is to form lines of three matching symbols to clear them, working through a series of levels. The mechanics are straightforward: you make matches to reduce the board, but new tiles fall in to replace them, often in cascading chains. The pace is methodical, not frantic, though the difficulty increases as the layouts become more constrained. It feels like a quiet, focused exercise in pattern recognition.
