Once again American McGee manages an intriguing story and compelling package that throws new light on aspects of the twisted mind of Alice ripe. The loneliness and remorse that dwell in his heart and in the real world collide with a thirst for revenge and responses in the wonderland of moors destroyed. The story not only because of the cut scenes but also pleasant comic book-style movies, can further enhance the already evocative narration. An adventure indeed able to entertain with his unique mix of platforming gameplay and hack'n'slash. While it is not without some flaws that are a little to affect the gameplay Alice: Madness Returns is a sure way of interest can be appreciated by the public thanks to a remarkable artistic work and script that will not disappoint fans of the first chapter.
Reviewing Alice: Madness Returns almost feels like a rite of passage for me. You see, I'm from the same town as the childhood home of Charles Dodgson, better known to you and I by his pen-name, Lewis Carroll. As such, he's a bit of a local culture icon.
I played Alice: Madness Returns for the first time last year. What an amazing game and adventure. It's a huge shame we aren't getting a sequel to it. It absolutely deserves another game.
oh yeah, I remember this game! I remember liking it, but found the platforming to be utterly obnoxious. Loved the world design.
Good review!
Of course Sunset Overdrive gets a nod. It's Insomniac!
I personally think there's better on gamepass then what was listed. State of decay imo is better then anything listed. Recore seemed alright for what I played on there also.
Odd that he specified 'Game Pass Ultimate' instead of just 'Game Pass' just so he could include a relatively weak choice comparably in 'Alice: Madness Returns' which is available with EA Play. SoD was a far better overlooked game to have listed.
From Games Radar: "Alice: Madness Returns has been removed from Steam just months after fans fought to get the creepy horror back onto Valve's PC platform.
The sequel was removed from sale back in 2016 following a DRM problem, an issue that kept the game off Steam for a full five years. It was finally reinstated in February 2022, only for fans to notice that, once again, it had been mysteriously pulled again earlier this month.
The game's Steam page says "at the request of the publisher, Alice: Madness Returns is no longer available for sale on Steam", but that's a standard disclaimer that doesn't really tell us very much. "
Love this game. Finished it yesterday. Highly recommended.
Got this game for PC. The graphic's good, story a little boring but still good, and gameplay a bit repetitive.
