Magical GirlMagical Girl

When the last bell rings, she could join a club, grab lunch with friends, or watch the sea from the waterfront. Or she could change into something else entirely and take on what's waiting on the other side of the city.
Magical Girl is a pixel-art action adventure where both lives are yours to live.

By day, a regular high schooler

Classes, lunch, hallway chatter. The classmate at the next desk, chats and invitations on your phone, the welcome night, art club, a basketball game, a camping trip, Christmas.
Go or don't. Missing something costs nothing, and the game only remembers what you actually did.

Main Street, the diner, the library, the mall, the waterfront, the park. Every corner of the pixel city has someone living their life.

By night, wand up

Chain ground combos into aerial follow-ups, cast on the move, and feel the weight of every dodge and guard. Read enemy warnings, land a Perfect Guard and punish with a counter. Fill your Bloom gauge and unleash an ultimate.

Six styles, six ways to fight

Spend Enhancement Points in your Magic Book to learn moves: fire and ice as the Elemental Mage, the Rage Hammer as the Berserker, lashes and dance steps with the Magic Ribbon, mirrors and echoes as the Mirror Witch, refracted beams as the Prism Witch, pull and meteor falls as the Gravity Witch. Equip one at a time. Switch, and the whole fight changes.

Gravity Witch tip: enemies are much easier to hit when they're floating.

Something is wrong with the city

A harbor in the rain at night, a possessed amusement park, a theatre, a speeding train, rooftops, a department store, a fast-food restaurant, a snowy district, and a forest that isn't quite right. Every region has its own enemies and bosses.
Gather forbidden books along the way. The more you carry, the fiercer later battles become.

The Rose Archmage of the forest is in a very good mood today.
(Promotional skit. In the game, she doesn't dance. She attacks.)

Not even the basketball in the school gym is safe.

Wake up, go again

When your revivals run out, you wake up at home. The forbidden books from that adventure are lost; your growth stays. Pull yourself together and head back into the city.
