We are now headed into my top 10.

15. My favorite JRPG from 2022. It features an expansive world like most games in this series and fun mobile gameplay. Right away, at the start of the game you have to make a decision which character will be the protagonist, and the story will be slightly different based on this choice.

The previous game in this series may have been lambasted for being too short and lacking content, but this game delivers on all the content you would need. It even has a fancy minigame called Es'owa where you can use characters on cards from previous games.

11. Similar game to #12. Unlike that game however the main character has a big weakness to sexy girls, a feature that an enemy took advantage of, flat chested girls on the other hand have no effect.

The main characters are a demon overlord prince, his retainer, and an angel. They meet several any bosses along the way and force them to server him afterwards.

10. The main character was involved in a crime, but probably falsely accused.

9. Another word for Destiny and another word for Bluff crash land on an uncivilized world called Elicoor.

8. Capturing new monsters and leveling up was needlessly complicated in this sequel, but when you figure it out your party's power grows exponentially in this 3v3 turn based combat.

11: Disgaea, maybe.
