Please post impressions when you get the chance. Is there a way to bypass regions on itunes store?
You can't bypass regions but you can set your country when creating a new itunes account.
Played about 45 minutes of middle manager of justice and its okay so far. Like most freemium simulation games, you assign tasks to each character and it'll take x amount of time with the option of speeding up with IAP currency. These tasks will make your heroes stronger or increase money for your branch.
So far, it seems the primary use of the IAP currency is to buy booster packs and each booster pack contains a random set of heroes and you pick one of three to be hired. I'm not 100% sure if it's random since I only have 2 heroes so far. The first one was probably set since it was part of the tutorial but my second hero had really good stats compared to what I was offered (maybe a rare hero?).
You are also required to protect the city by fighting thugs. Combat is very basic as your heroes automatically attack and the only thing you can do is activate special abilities from your heroes. You have a choice of not participating in these fights but will have to rely on chance to finish these missions and wait a certain amount of time. The chance of success doesn't reflect the difficulty of the fight either. I had lost a fight with a 40% of winning but when I participated in the fight, I barely lost any health.
Little stuff like equipment, outfits and consumable items (health potions, buffs, ect) are nice additions. The special currency doesn't seem too hard to get either. It seems like you have a chance of getting 1 after every fight. I was also awarded 10 for the first boss in the game. For comparison, you need 10 to get the basic booster pack.
