Hauntingly Twisted

I am a huge fan of these stories, I even played the white rabbit in a musical adaptation of the book. I have seen all the movies and I felt inspired by the imagination and the pureness of the lessons held within. THIS IS NOTHING LIKE THAT! I also have a dark side...a demeted, twisted, cynical side of myself which usually intertwines with the happy, joy, love rainbow side. Imagine if you will merging the Addam's Family with the Brady Bunch, or My Little Pony with Spawn. This game sucessfully takes a childhood classic and turns it inside out.
The graphics and images are incredible, I am having a few issues with sound and extreme frustration on not being able to figure out how to kill the bad guys. All that comes with time and learning. I know I will enjoy this game.

Having read the Alice books and several annotated editions of the same, I wasn't sure how they would make a good shooter game out of it, but was pleasantly surprised. The graphics were awesome! It was almost as much fun walking around looking at the different locations as it was killing all the bad guys who resided in them. The jumping about was quite difficult, but the weapons were great fun and the bad guys were very interesting and some quite scarey to kill or run from. I played this game several times before I finally put it on the shelf and looked for something else to play. Great game.

EXCELLENT

The game it self has gorgeous graphics, amazing game play, a great unfolding story line, and comes in seven colorful, non kid friendly flavors! :) Like I said, this game is not for kids. It has violence, gore, and deals with psychological problems Alice is dealing with. However, this game is not overly scary. It does have a few points ware it can give you a fairly good shock, (but most of the shocks come from the many, many, cinema tics). If you are looking for a scary game, you could play this in your room at night, with your door locked, and a metronome ticking in the corner. That would do it. You get a number of toys, which are actually weapons. This is a great long game. When I first bought this I was skeptical, but now I realize what a good game this is!

the graphics are something else on this game. The viewing as you paly makes you feel right there with the charracters. the voices are great, and the level playing starts out easy then gets very challenging. i like that.

OS X is a slight problem

The visuals and the twist of the old Alice in Wonderland tale is worth buying and playing through the game. The overall gameplay is slightly linear - but gameplay is enjoyable none the less. If you have Mac OS X and are running the game through that, save all the time -- there are some glitches and hitches throughout the game. Hopefully Aspyr will come out with a patch for Alice to alleviate this problem.

This game is beautiful. Great art and a story to get lost in. You need to own a new mac though. Serious memory hog! VERY VERY VERY difficult to load and get running correctly and forget [tech support] for help for they give none. Once you get past all of the loading and memory issues it's fun but getting the game onto your system is a pain in the neck. (And I load up a lot games and programs I'm telling ya this [was not a fun install])

greatest graphics(and voices) EVER in history!

the graphics on this game is just...*tear* so...wow...its just the coolest graphics i have ever seen. the voices are so cool too! i love this game! but then again, its freaky at the same time. (no wonder its rated mature), i get so nervous when i play it, i never know what im going to bump into or what to do next, but then again, im not very experienced with it. so i say, if youre lookin for a fun,freaky scary,cool story to it and awsome graphics etc etc etc...i so recommend this game!

This game is great! The graphics are pretty good and it is full of action. A little difficult, however. Almost too hard. Has some of those puzzles that you would never figure out without clues, and the fighting is not easy. But overall great.

Unstable

I absolutely love this game. It is perhaps the most visually stunning game I've seen. The problem is the programers spent more time with pictures than a stable program. The program is OSX compatible, but about 50% of the time it crashes when loading a new map on BOTH of my machines. An older G3 and the new eMac each running OS 10.1.5. Also in OSX it has trouble with multiple monitor machines when you change the video settings. The OS9 verson is better, but i still had a few type 3 errors. Also the "minimum" requirments are just that. On my old machine I had everything on the lowest settings and I still wasn't getting better than 20 fps. In short I sadly recomend to buy the PC version.

This game is great! I love puzzle games, but am not too into fighting (war) games. This is the perfect combination. I did have problems when I tried to change the video settings (I just wanted to see how it made the game different.), but none otherwise. I use a Titanium 800MHz/520RAM. The game was a little slow when I used it while I had many other apps open, but as soon as I closed most of the large ones, there are no problems.
