Any universe. I recall reading a fun fantasy book that played with this idea under the premise of a guy who discovered he was in a simulation and hacked admin access, decided to go back into Arthurian medieval times to be a wizard with his new tech powers, and ended up there with a number of other sysadmins who had the same idea.
It wasn’t the best written book, but the concept was definitely novel.
Does Star Trek count as magical?
I think it’s just sci fi
But there’s Q, the traveller, Wesley, that old guy who wiped out an entire species with a thought… Pretty magical stuff there…
Any sufficiently advanced technology would appear as magic to the primitive. This is a theme repeated frequently in the show. 
The life forms you mentioned are simply more advanced than humanity can comprehend, they are not magical. 
Wow, I had completely forgotten about the Wesley Traveler thing.
You may be more familiar with it than me.
Well then, I’d say this is a good excuse to familiarize yourself with it and tell me for sure.
I’ll leave it to your best judgement.
My best judgment is that you should go and binge watch DS9 because that show is amazing.
“A sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”
Does that apply to any universe or just Star Trek?
