Eleven years ago a horrific fire took Alice’s family from her and left her mind horrifically scarred. Afterwards she was confined to Rutledge Asylum, where she struggled to confront her demons by slipping further into her fantasy world of Wonderland. Now, after ten years, she has finally secured her release—yet she still bears the heavy psychological burden of that tragic event. With her mind in tatters, she is unable to resolve the fear prompted by her strange memories, dreams, and visions. Perhaps she’ll do better in Wonderland. She always has. She travels there, seeking what the “real” world can’t provide: security, knowledge, and the truth about the past. But in her absence, Wonderland too has suffered. Something has gone horribly wrong, and now a great evil is descending upon what once was her beautiful refuge. Can Alice save Wonderland—and herself—from the madness that consumes them both?

The world of Wonderland seems to hold a pretty firm grip on our imagination and fascination. A cast of odd-ball characters, a seemingly bottomless well of potential lore and a sinister overtone make it the place of adaptation dreams. Arguably, it made American McGee’s career. His original twisted take on Wonderland, Alice, has since been traded on, as less and less successful games were released bearing his name. It seems he’s realised as much, and has gone back to the well for Alice: Madness Returns.

Like its predecessor, Alice: Madness Returns is a game whose considerable dark artistic visions ease much of the gameplay's burden--but not all of it.

Alice returns to a world of visual wonder with new tricks, but fails to convince you to care.

Playing Alice: Madness Returns isn't as exciting as looking at it, but you'll still enjoy getting lost in this twisted fantasy adventure.

Inspired art design and a rich, twisted world carry Spicy Horse's Alice, but awkward pacing, repetitive gameplay, and a lack of polish keep it from soaring.
