If you have ever wondered how DeNA can generate over $1 billion in sales with a Japan- and mobile-only social gaming platform, here’s a pointer: Tokyo-based social game maker GMS announced that “Daisoudatsu Legend Card” just hit 100,000 users on DeNA’s Mobage gaming platform.

The amazing bullet point here is that this took GMS just 14 hours. The title, a social card game in a fantasy setting, is free to play and monetized through sales of virtual items.

“Daisoudatsu Legend Card” is only available on Mobage for Japanese feature phones.
