Negi Springfield is a ten-year-old wizard from Wales, who dreams of becoming a Magister Magi (Approximate Latin translation: "Master of Magic" or "Master Mage"), a special wizard who uses his powers to help normal people, using covers such as working for NGOs. Negi's reason for becoming a Magister Magi is to find his father, Nagi Springfield, the legendary mage also known as the "Thousand Master", who is believed to be dead.
After graduating from the Merdiana Magic Academy in Wales, Negi is given a duty as a cover in the real world, and training, before he actually becomes a Magister Magi. That duty is to become an English teacher at Mahora Academy in Japan. The task will not be easy, however, as Negi will become a teacher to a Middle School class of 31 older girls, each very special in her own way.
Mahou Sensei Negima! Dream Tactic Yumemiru Otome Princess: Whilst exploring the school library, students from class 3-A find an old and mysterious tome. After flipping the volume open, strange rays of light emanate from the pages and the pupils are enchanted and eventually fall asleep. Deep in slumber in the physical world, the girls are trapped in a dreamland and must escape from their predicament by way of tactical battles and interaction. A total of eight missions must be conquered before the gals are free to escape. The first mission is based on the Cinderella fairy tale complete with a stepmother and stepsisters and the second mission is based on Little Red Riding Hood.
Units are moved on a grid-based map to confront enemy units and attacks are triggered by selecting them from a menu. The basic command set is "Movement," "Attack," "Use Item," and something called "Special Technique" which is the use of a skill to heal a character, bolster defenses, or perform a special attack. Negi Springfield can help his students in dreamland by casting magic spells such as "Recovery" which heals his students, "Sneeze" which blows a strong wind against enemies, "Shield" which raises the defensive power of a student, and more.
