This game has STRICT REGION LOCK! Usually you only need VPN to download an Aniplex game. But Exedra, you NEED to have the VPN active at all time during gameplay. You can try Turbo VPN Lite and just tap connect, it should work. If you're using other VPNs, try using USA server with good ping. As for the region, when asked by the game, just choose any. BUT keep the region you chose in mind! It'll be used for Data Transfer, should you decide to switch devices.
Alright, I think I've played enough to write a review, so let's get to it.
It's a 15 out of 5 just because I can finally play with the lovely Iroha Tamaki again

.........Ok, serious this time.
Short Version: A very recommended game with beautiful graphics, flashy ultimates (that can be skipped), voiced story, smooth gameplay with little to no loading, FOR THOSE WHO KNOWS MADOKA MAGICA. Which in my case, Magia Record. BUT for those who doesn't know, I don't recommend this simply because of the Region Lock. It's just not worth the hassle if you don't have any attachment to the characters. You might as well go with FGO.....or you know, GFL 2, which is a much much better option...HSR? ...Sure, I guess? I only played that just because of Asta-chan. If not, Pokemon Emerald is way more fun...
Long version:
Pros:
++++++ The lovely Iroha Tamaki is here, yaaaaay!
+ Incredible 3D graphics. The characters are all well made and very expressive.
+ Great story presentation. A combination of 2D art, 3D model used for dialogues, a first person PoV section, and cinematic cutscenes
+ Super smooth gameplay with flashy attacks
+ Combat is quite engaging. There's a break gauge like HSR, but here, after breaking the enemy, we can break them even further, increasing the damage they received. IMPORTANT: "Mami Head" boss battle is the true first boss that will REALLY test your team.
+ Seamless transition between screens. There's hardly any loading time. Startup is fast as well
+ Simple growth system. Just farm materials and just upgrade the characters. There's a QoL that allows you to quickly use all available materials to upgrade them as far as possible.
+ Affinity system that allows you to get close and know more about the girls. If its like Magia Record, they're stories should all be a great read.
Neutral:
# Free 5* character given, but cannot be rerolled. Rerolling also takes too much time
# A bit annoying exploration part. Especially when there's a hidden sparkle that we need to tap to get quite a decent amount of crystals (or diamonds, jades, pyroxene whatever you want to call it)
# Character level tied to account level. Yeah, one of those games...
Cons:
------ FREAKING REGION LOCK!! Why oh WHY do they HAVE to do THAT!! We can't support the game if we're outside the chosen region!! This game is living on the edge I'm afraid.....Freaking Aniplex.....Poor Iroha and friends, Magia Record NA deserve better....
- Very stingy. It's very difficult to generate enough currencies for a 10 pull. Unlike other games such as GFL2 and even Blue Archive. Magia Record was way better.
- Sub par grand opening rewards and events. You get enough currency for 1 10x pull. I was lucky Iroha-chan answered my call just from 1 multi pull. I got Felicia from the free 10x pull, fyi.
- Red dots! You need to read the Magical Girl stories to clear the red dot. I mean, I'll read them cause I know they'll be good (trust me), but I really want them to just clear the red dot after we open the respective screen. No need to remind us to do it...
- Cinematic cutscenes oddly has buffer? Like a youtube video. Like one second it goes smoothly, then it stopped, then it plays again.....why.....
- Little to no interactive actions on the girls. Unlike Magia Record, where we can tap on the characters and have them talk and move.
Alright. That's about it. There's this thing called tower mode and there should be PVP, but it says "coming soon"? So I'm guessing it's not ready yet
Well that's it, hope this helps. Again, if you are outside of the chosen region AND you do not have any attachment with Madoka Magica and their characters, I do not recommend this. But if you do, I recommend despite the Region Lock.

4.5Please add a server in Korea as well. It's my favorite animation in my life, and I downloaded it because I heard that a game came out, but I can't because there is no Korean server.
