Alice: Madness Returns delves deep into the dark and violent side of the imagination, creating a nightmarish Wonderland where Alice must face the demons that haunt her visions. Visit the grim reality of Victorian London and then travel to the beautiful yet ghastly Wonderland to uncover the root of Alice’s madness and discover the truth behind a deadly secret, kept hidden for years.
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?

Much better than the Tim Burton's movie
This game was inspired by Alice in Wonderland. That is no secret. Each of the worlds has a unique visual theme. There are forest, factory, dollhouse, card-castle, underwater and many other worlds, just to name a few. The music and the visuals have the right level of creepiness. They music gives you an eerie and lonely feeling. The story is interesting and original. It makes me proud to say that this is based on the Alice in Wonderland books. The weapons are interesting and unique although not quite balanced because when I played on easy I found that my fully upgraded teapot cannon could kill most normal enemies with only a few shots whereas other fully upgraded weapons would take longer. Therefore most of the time I ended up using just the pepper grinder weapon (aka the machine-gun) and the teapot cannon (aka the grenade launcher) and the game became more of a 3rd person shooter for me. The targeting system is not very good. It was difficult to change targets. It felt kind of wobbly and imprecise so fighting at close range wasn't very fun. The game got a bit boring and repetitive after some time. Maybe that's because I tried to find all the collectibles. There are over a hundred of them to be found! You can collect memories, bottles and teeth and find hidden pig snouts around the world. The things is, most of them are one way only so you often have to go back to were the main path got split after finding the collectible. This is honestly boring. I want to move forward not backtrack. It also sometimes sends you on missions to rescue some creatures or find some blocks. Those also use the same strategy, often requiring you to slay some enemies in the process. It felt like these quests were stalling the main story. It wasn't always clear where you had to go. In the earlier levels there would be hidden "messages" and arrows showing were to go but this idea wasn't used much later on. Some environments looked too cluttered or dark. The ending wasn't quite satisfying either. It seems like I'm only talking about the bad stuff but the game isn't bad. I did get the platinum trophy for it after all. I guess it's the uniqueness of the world and story that made me finish it. The idea behind the game was very good, the execution, not so much. Yet I still recommend it to people who like: platforming + hack-and-slash + unique things that others might label as creepy or weird. You do get the code to download the first game but you need a UK PSN account and that game is pretty old so don't expect much from it. Still, a nice bonus for the fans.

A slaughter
The game has a crazy and unhealthy atmosphere that made the whole game worth it. It takes you deep into the human psyche.

Alice: Madness Returns
Alice: Madness Returns is a title for those who love "American McGee's Alice". A classic platform game with environmental puzzles in theme with the series, and at times one is overcome by the gorgeous scenery. Many reviews say that it's nice to play. Note the contrast of the real world London, all gray and gloomy, with the dream of Wonderland, full of colour even if grotesque for certain situations. Highly recommended if you want a surreal and fun gaming trip.

Alice: Madness Returns was awesome! But it's very short and it's not replayable, but highly recommended!

Madness Returns
After the original American McGee's Alice, this game had a lot to live up to. The gameplay feels as good as its predecessor and is very easy to get into. Once you have started playing you are enveloped by the story and the graphics. I am still currently playing the game and I'm finding it hard to put down. Bundle in the advantage of being able to download the previous game in HD, you are getting value for money and a lot of hours of gameplay. If you are a fan of American McGee's work, Alice: Madness Returns is a must to add to your collection.

Worth the Wait!
I've been debating on wherever to get this game or not as the trailer looked fantastic but I wanted to wait until the price dropped a bit. Now I got it I've got to say...... so far so good Fantastic! If your a Alice in wonderland fan and you like the mild horror, mystery games then grab it. I was even surprised to see my copy came with an original American McGee's Alice download so two games for the price of one in my opinion! If you like the trailer then don't hesitate!

A fantastic version of Alice in wonderland. The set pieces are weird and wonderful as are the many characters and enemies you meet along the way. The controls are easy to pick up and gameplay is very fun. The weapons are strangely fun to use ranging from the vorpal blade and pepper grinder to mushroom bombs. The use of the shrinking ability is very enjoyable and is needed to find hidden/secret items and to uncover secret paths to help you progress. There are a few glitches within the game, some more noticeable than others but with an update these can be easily corrected. But this aside the game as a whole is very enjoyable,watching the story unfold and going through wonderland meeting all the weird and wonderful characters is great fun. If your a fan of Alice in wonderland or not this is a great game to get in to.
