There's a method to the madness
Alice: Madness Returns at IGN: walkthroughs, items, maps, video tips, and strategies.
This is the sequel to the first game in the series of American McGee's Alice. The series is developed by EA, yes, you read that right. EA has made an out of the box game in the past, crazy right. Alice: Madness Returns is a game idea I thought I would never see, taking a beloved animated kids’ film like Alice in Wonderland and changed it into a very dark psychological hack and slashhorror game. The studio owned by EA; Spicy House is actually meant to be in the process of making a sequel to this game.
- Alice Madness Returns Freezes on Xbox 360 If you have installed Alice Madness Returns on hard drive of your console, you may come across random freezes. Try running the game off disc to resolve.
- Alice: Madness Returns is a worthwhile sequel and reinvents the original with better graphics and gameplay. It's not without problems though, as Alice: Madness Returns comes with its fair share of crashing, freezing, and bugs, which this article helps intend to resolve.
- American McGee’s Alice fans have had a hard lot. Despite their demand for a sequel, EA hasn’t really considered completing the trilogy after 2011’s Alice: Madness Returns. American McGee has.
- I've re-acquired all the games I've had in Origin on Steam except for Alice Madness Returns, which still isn't back on Steam (it used to be a long time ago). Does anyone know if this game will be making a return to Steam? It's still available for sale through Origin, so it seems odd why it wouldn'.
More games should do this!
Alice: Madness Returns is set after the original game but is still set in the Wonderland. It starts with Alice having a hallucination because of the traumatic death of her family due to a fire. The hallucination gets worse until she wakes up back in a familiar world to her wonderland. Although it’s not as she remembers. Wonderland has been corrupted by something, not of Wonderland called Infernal Train which has been destroying the land. After finding this out she sets out on a journey to stop the corruption of Wonderland and find out more about her patchy past.

The graphics are from the Unreal Engine but are the Unreal 3 before 4 was a thing. The game doesn’t look as good as some modern games, most likely due to the engine being behind modern games but that’s more to the date of release of the game than a problem. The way the game has been converted from a 2D kids cartoon movie to a fully animated 3D hack and slash, the horror-inspired video game had to be a hard thing to do and they’ve managed to pull it off pretty well. I hope that they get their hands on maybe more kids cartoons and turn them into 18+ nightmare versions of themselves as to its just a concept that hasn’t been explored in video games except for this game. Also, they do all-time in films so why not make kids' stories into horror games...
How could it possibly get any madder?
The gameplay of Alice: Madness Returns is a classic hack and slash reminds me a bit of Lollipop chainsaw but without the humour element to it and focusing more on the horror aspect in this game. As it dives into the madness of Alice through the game, you fight different enemies like the Lost Souls’ and the Drowned Sailor. If the name of the enemies doesn’t tell that this game isn’t a horror game and your main weapon is a kitchen knife. That’s probably one of the scariest things in the kitchen people! Even the shrinking potion has been used from the film, making it into a mechanic which grants you an ability to sneak. The game takes everything from the cartoon movie and turns into something dark and mad.

This game is such a simple idea taking what is originally there and making it a darker experience. It's been done so much in films, it's time for it to start in gaming and with this game. This game proves that it’s possible as the experience of playing as Alice through a darker version of the original story was really enjoyable.
