The first Alice was released in 2000 by McGee an American gaming developer. It depicted Alice in Wonderland with a bizarre tale that was so enthralling Alice became an overnight success. Everyone loved Alice, even those who hated fairytale romances.
McGee finally released the sequel Alice: Madness Returns this year. The magic of Alice in wonderland is once again the talk of the gaming industry. The scenes are magical. The graphics are exactly what you would expect from a tale set in a fairytale land. The gameplay is exciting and there is not a boring moment to be had. The music sets the mood for an eerie era and you will have many hours of fun playing Alice: Madness Returns.
The game starts with Alice confined to a madhouse. Her doctors try to counsel her but Alice soon returns to wonderland. She takes on the responsibility of saving wonderland and also to save herself from madness. Alice meets up with all the old characters like the mad hatter and a few others. The characters are beautifully portrayed in this marvelous fairytale adventure in wonderland. Some of them are hostile towards Alice and she has to be wary of enemies who would like to harm her. She has a variety of weapons at her disposal but the primary weapon is the vorpal blade. Alice must collect teeth and this is the games currency. She can buy new weapons and there are plenty of exciting weapons included in this new episode of Alice: Madness Returns. All the weapons from the previous episode are there and so are a few new ones included by the developer to make Alice: Madness Returns a really wonderful sequel.
Alice can perform a variety of movements like jump, walk, float, etc. The obstacles are not all that hard to engage. Even much younger gamers can overcome them easily, but that doesn't make for an easy adventure. You will still find it quite a daunting task to complete all the missions despite your age. As in the real story of wonderland Alice can shrink and this is useful as she discovers new pathways and trails. There are many exciting things to collect and add to your treasure on these pathways so it's important that you don't skip them. Lost memories and pig snouts are amongst some of the things that you collect.
Although the graphics are excellent and the game engine is smooth and responsive, there are no real new elements added to the game. You won't get the feeling that you are playing a modern game with the latest technologies. This can give you a feeling that you are playing something that is quite outdated. There are plenty of 2D scenarios, but nothing fantastic. Its overall a mediocre game reminiscent of something created a few years back.
Each chapter is somewhat different from the previous and you won't feel as if you're playing the same levels over and over again. From dollhouses to underwater enclaves, Alice is driven deeper into a world of wonder. The wonderful music will indeed capture your imagination and put you in the mood of intense admiration for the beautiful land you are about to explore.
You will never tire of exploring Alice's wonderland in this adventure. Although there is nothing spectacular to hold your imagination, it's still hard to put down the controls until you are done.
