Getting Started
The gameplay in Magical Girl is relatively easy, after setting your name, you will enter the tutorial phase.

When you start off, the game will take you to a tutorial, however, the tutorial is not very informative, so you will need to bear with it.
The game shows you as you go along what to do, by lighting up icons in a circle and slowly flashing on the icon.
In Magical Girl, there is no need to use any icons to toggle your character’s movements, weapons, and so forth. The gameplay is automated.
This means your character will move and attack by herself, without you having to watch her all the time. Enemies will spawn on each stage, and your character will move to the next stage automatically.
The only thing you will need to watch out for is when your character is defeated on a stage, you will be automatically set on auto-repeat of the previous stage.
You can change this setting by selecting the stage icon on the right-hand side of your screen and toggling “repeat normal stage” to the “off” display. See the image below:

You will easily notice when a stage is on repeat, by looking at your screen on the right-hand side. Beneath the stage number you are on, it will display, for example, Lava Swamp (Repeat).
Magical Girl Display Screen and Icons
In Magical Girl, the main screen has plenty of screen icons. These will be explored in more detail below:
Top Left-Hand Side Screen Icons
The top left of your screen displays your character’s name that you have selected, and just below your name, you will see your activated buffs. Here you are able to activate the following buffs:

Each buff lasts for a certain amount of time, and you will need to reactivate them using red rubies collected during gameplay.

The fourth icon allows the player to view the screen in player mode only, tap on the eye to activate this feature and remove all of the icons on your screen.
If you tap on the eye icon again, all the icons will reappear. This feature comes in handy when you are easily distracted by various icons, as well as if you have a small screen and are more than likely to tap an icon accidentally.

Final Thoughts
Magical Girl – Idle Pixel Hero is one of those games that doesn’t require you to sit in front of the screen 24/7. You are able to leave the game running while taking care of other things, and if you die on Magical Girl, the game enables the auto-repeat of a stage.
This makes it possible for you to earn rewards while you’re doing nothing in short. Feel free to share and leave a heart. Check out these new games before you leave: Dino Knight, Dragoheir: Silent Gods, and Final Fantasy VII: Ever Crisis.
Happy Gaming!
