This game combines anime-style with hand drawn with pastel colour for background. RPG elements are also included where characters can raise their level.

A simple Madoka Magica hack-and-slash game. There is no story in this game, though each level is designed after one of the witches from the show. There aren't really a whole lot of combos you can pull off but I do like that each character has their own skill set. The graphics and character animations are cute, and the music is very reminiscent of the Madoka Magica show as well. I only played the first few levels, unfortunately this game is quite poorly designed as there isn't a save option or anything so you basically have to beat all the levels in one run. The "difficulty" in this game is just making the enemies have more HP, which means you'll be standing in the same room for a minute slicing away at the same crowd. There isn't any complexity in the combat system, no skill tree or anything, just spamming the same few buttons over and over.
Overall, this game is just a small getaway for Madoka Magica fans so they can cope over movie 4 never coming out.
