About Alice: Madness Returns

✦ AI summary

Battle through a corrupted Wonderland as Alice confronts her psychological trauma and dark memories through intense action combat with upgradeable weapons and reality-bending magic abilities. This dark reimagining transforms the whimsical classic into a haunting adventure filled with twisted familiar characters, environmental puzzles, and the constant struggle between Alice's fractured mind and her only refuge from the real world.


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?

Key Features:


Intense 3rd person action:
  • Use multiple upgradeable melee weapons, including the explosive Teapot Cannon, the punishing Hobby Horse, and the classic Vorpal Blade.
Explore a dark and shattered Wonderland:
  • Encounter familiar but now strange characters, including the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, the Caterpillar and the Red Queen.
Magical abilities:
  • Obtain peculiar abilities in Wonderland such as floating with Alice’s dress, shrinking, or growing to towering sizes in order to crush enemies.
Interactive puzzles:
  • Intuitive and rewarding puzzles such as transforming obstacles, musical memories, chess, and picture blocks.

Что если бы Эми Ли из Evanescence в свои молодые годы попала бы в Страну Чудес с щепоткой безумия и пережила бы пожар в детстве, где потеряла семью? Вот это оно. Понравилось, только пришлось с архивами и модами позаморочиться, чтоб всё шикарно было. P.S. American McGee`s Alice будет более атмосферной и с фишками Quake III Arena, ибо на движке Id Tech 3, а Madness Returns более технологичной в плане геймплея, красивой и можно классные скриншоты наделать, так же собрать все коллектоблсы и почитать лор.

Awesome game with some pretty heavy themes so beware of that but it hit me right in the feels. Love how this game looks every location looks amazing and the atmosphere is so good, the steampunk vibe never gets old For playing it properly I recommend you mess with some files to get it running at 60fps instead of 30 and also increasing the camera sensitivity (it's really really slow on controller). How to change the fps to 60: https://steamcommunity.com/app/19680/discussions/0/620700960697826702/?l=vietnamese&ctp=2 How to make the camera faster: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Alice Madness Returns\Engine\Config then open BaseInput.ini and change both LookRightScale=300 LookUpScale=-300 to whatever number you want. I changed both to 600 and it made the game feel a lot better to play
