As we come to the end of 2014, let us recap some of the top Japanese Mobile game that caught my attention this awesome year!
There were many games released this year, most of which failed to live up to the hype. However, there are some games that prove to the world that language is not a barrier when it comes to playing games. The following Top 10 games are my own list of SSR titles that were released this year and with many English speaking players in them. Without further ado, here’s the top 10 for 2014 (in no particular order):
1. White Cat Project
White Cat Project is one of the rare Jmobile games that does not have any Stamina/AP system in place. It is also the first ARPG game that requires only 1 hand to control. If you like cutesy style ARPG, WCP is definitely a must try!

2. Hunter X Hunter : Battle Allstars
The game that made this site possible. Hunter X Hunter : Battle Allstars is the first Jmobile game I’ve helped to build the English community with. The game utilizes the drag and connect combat mode. There are different event modes, some of which requires players to think and act fast to prevent enemies from escaping. Currently, this is the only game that I’m sponsoring my own giveaways for the community. Stay tuned to the Sky Arena event if you want to win some itunes or Google play cards.

5. Kai-ri-Sei Million Arthur
Kai-ri-Sei Million Arthur is the latest Million Arthur game launched by Square Enix. The game is a great improvement from MA1 in terms of gameplay and graphics. It has many new features including a real-time 4man co-op battle. Sadly, in a good way, the game has too many features to explore that I couldn’t find time to play it.
