There are two mobile games in the Ni no Kuni series, developed and published by Level-5. The mobile games were released in Japan, alongside main Ni no Kuni titles Dominion of the Dark Djinn and Wrath of the White Witch, and were developed and published in partnership with mobile distribution companies. The first game, Ni no Kuni: Hotroit Stories, is a role-playing game set before the events of the main games. It follows the story of Oliver and his friend Mark, and their attempts to construct a car. The first chapter was released in December 2010 through Level-5's Roid service. The second title, Ni no Kuni: Daibouken Monsters, is a social card role-playing game in which players collect cards and use them in battles, and use the abilities of characters who have been trapped in the cards. It was released in a partnership with the GREE mobile service in May 2012.

Ni no Kuni: Hotroit Stories (二ノ国 ホットロイトストーリー?) is an episodic role-playing video game developed and published by Level-5. The first chapter was released for mobile devices through the Roid service on December 9, 2010.

A prequel to Dominion of the Dark Djinn and Wrath of the White Witch, Hotroit Stories follows Oliver and his friend Mark, who create a custom car by finding parts around the town of Hotroit, eventually making their way to an abandoned factory in their search. They are accompanied by a cat. Throughout their search, Oliver and Mark encounter creatures similar to the imajinn/familiars of the main game, which they must fight to proceed. Unlike the main games, Hotroit Stories does not feature magic; characters instead attack using items such as dry ice for similar effects. Anne Lee of Chic Pixel noted that the game features a similar art style to EarthBound (1994).
