A decidedly Darker and Edgier take on the source material, American McGee's Alice stars the titular character of the Alice's Adventures in Wonderland series. Released in late 2000 by Electronic Arts, and helmed by id Software alumnus American McGee (obviously), a former level designer for the Doom and Quake franchises, in his first role as project lead.Alice Liddell's family has died in a fire of which she is the only survivor. The trauma leaves her mostly catatonic and suicidal, and she is institutionalized in Rutledge Asylum. Years later, her White Rabbit plush toy apparently comes to life and summons Alice to aid a radically altered Wonderland, now under the despotic rule of the Queen of Hearts. Alice must fight her way through the twisted dream world in an attempt to destroy the Queen and restore Wonderland to its former glory, and thus heal her mind. Along the way, she must destroy the Queen's minions, many of which are her former friends and companions. Her guide and primary ally is a twisted, emaciated Cheshire Cat, who can be summoned by the player for hints on how to go or just the occasional cryptic quote.The game itself is an early action adventure, with Alice using a variety of deadly toys to kill the inhabitants trying to destroy her and solving a number of puzzles along the way. The soundtrack is particularly notable, created by Nine Inch Nails member Chris Vrenna with exclusively Victorian instruments and toys. The trailer for the first game can be viewed here.In February 2009, roughly eight or so years after the game was released, EA announced that American McGee got the band back together, so to speak, and the sequel, entitled Alice: Madness Returns was released on June 14, 2011. In May 2019, Alice: Asylum was announced, reportedly dealing with Alice's early days in the asylum. Unfortunately, Asylum would ultimately be passed on by license holder Electronic Arts in April 2023, resulting in American McGee giving up on the project and announcing his retirement from game development.A TV series adaptation of the game was greenlit in early 2022. | |

Mission Control Is Off Its Meds | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_11734fc0 | comment |
Mission Control Is Off Its Meds: Some of the Cheshire Cat's clues are cryptic to the point of being false. For example, he implies the Jacks are dangerous to Alice if she uses them without enemies around, like the Dice, when in fact they're perfectly harmless. | |

Bloodless Carnage | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_135b9977 | comment |
Bloodless Carnage: Compared to the bloody violence throughout the rest of the game, the White Rabbit's death from being crushed by the Mad Hatter's foot is surprisingly lacking in gore. Arguably, this serves to make the scene even more disturbing. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: In the game's trailer, Alice and the Mad Hatter are shown having a tea party together, Alice glaring daggers at him as she grips her knife - just as the Hatter pulls on a lever and a circular saw comes out behind Alice to cut her in half. It's a dramatic and frightening scene, but there's nothing in the actual game that resembles it. | |

Boss Battle | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_1e14ea2a | comment |
The Duchess. She's implied to be a cannibal right from the first time someone mentions her, and it proves to be true: right before the Boss Battle starts, she comments on how delectable Alice looks. Plus, her most dangerous - and most disturbing - attack consists of liftning Alice up and biting her on the head. (She can only do this if Alice comes within close range, which is not a good idea with this Boss, or most Bosses in general.) | |

Tweedledum and Tweedledee appear to have cannibalistic tendencies too, but aren't as anxious to eat Alice as the Duchess is, claiming she's too "scrawny" when the see her. (Alice's response is darkly sarcastic.) | |

Game Mod: The PC version has an unofficial HD texture pack that overhauls the game's textures, revamps the menus and HUD, and has an option "Overkill" add-on that adds more lighting effects, models, more enemies, and an extended cheats menu. This texture pack is also compatible with the 2011 remastered version that was included with the game's sequel, but the cheats menu from the Overkill add-on doesn't work since the remastered version removed cheats and the console entirely. | |

Body Horror | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: Can be found in plenty, as Alice is profoundly disturbed and this reflects in Wonderland's people. Various deformed children running around in Skool and Hatter's Asylum, some of whom have the tops of their skulls sawed off. The March Hare and the Dormouse. Good God. Both are the Mad Hatter's cybernetic test subjects; The March Hare is missing all of his limbs and three been replaced with crude prosthetics, his eyes are held open by staples, and his lower lip is pulled far down his face. Dormouse had his legs removed, his brain is exposed, and most of his tail has been replaced by metal links. The Queen of Hearts' appearance and her true form are horrific. Both are humanoid, but are mostly comprised of tentacles. The final form also has Mad Hatter's head in its mouth, and the Hatter head has Alice's head in its mouth. | |

Pop-Cultural Osmosis | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_552c0a69 | comment |
Popcultural Osmosis: Some of the elements claimed to be from the original story are actually lifted straight from the Disney adaption, such as her parachute dress and only specific food altering Alice's body shape, and only in specific proportions. In the books every food eaten in Wonderland (except for a bit of tea she has with the Mad Hatter) altered the shape of her body, and not always in proportion. | |

Save Scumming: One way to ensure you don't redo frustrating sections of platforming or to-and-fro tedium just because of a mis-step later on. It helps that the game gives you two ways to do this: either manually creating a new save, or using the built in quick save function which essentially acts as a save state. | |

In Case You Forgot Who Wrote It | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_73d4b01a | comment |
In Case You Forgot Who Wrote It: Possibly justified, since American McGee's Alice is very different from Lewis Carroll's, but even so it has been said of the game that if you're going to put your own name in the title, it's better if people actually know who you are. The game had amazing graphics for its time, and it was heavily publicized that it was built on the then-cutting edge id Tech 3 Game Engine that powered Quake III: Arena. American McGee had been a designer for id Software and worked on the earlier Quake games, as well as its predecessor franchise Doom. A good portion of the target audience — 3D action gamers — were well aware of who he was. American McGee, however, was actually not a fan of having his name in the title, he wanted to call the game just Alice. According to him, it was the publishers who wanted to put his name in the title, since "made by one of the masterminds behind Doom" would carry more weight with gamers than "a dark version of Alice in Wonderland". He got his wish with the second game, which is not called American McGee's Alice: Madness Returns. It still has "An American McGee Game" in smaller letters at the bottom of the case. | |

Super Mode: In the first game, Alice can occasionally find the Rage Box that when touched sprays... something in her face which painfully transforms her into a demon. This Power-Up causes Alice to do more damage to her enemies and causes her to take less damage from their attacks for the duration. There are also other items, like a rare grasshopper teapot that turns Alice into a super agile bug-girl, and even rarer dark looking-glass that turns Alice invisible. | |

Truth in Television: Sort of. The manual describes what you'd think were imagined and torturous treatments for various patients in the asylum, from pricking fingers, to bullying, to experimentation. A patient dies and the Doctor comments on it rather casually. But lunatics in Victorian England were third-class citizens and it all happened with nobody batting an eyelid. | |

Rule of Symbolism: LOTS. Most major characters that Alice encounters and many of the locations represent someone or something that caused her madness or something she encountered after being driven insane. Some examples include the Vorpal Blade, which is the spoon used to feed her at the asylum (which she had tried to use as a weapon in one brief time that she was conscious) and the Land of Fire and Brimstone, which symbolizes the fire that destroyed her house. Boss enemies and some monsters represent employees and patients at the asylum or figures from her past. | |

Gut Punch: The first few parts of the game are pretty violent, but not overly so (at least not compared to similar games), until you reach the part where the White Rabbit is crushed by the Mad Hatter's foot. Then you start to realize how dark this game is, and that it's only going to get darker from here. | |

Infinity +1 Sword | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_a5e02e9e | comment |
Infinity +1 Sword: Two of them. First, the Jabberwock's Eye Staff which is obtained in pieces throughout the game. When completed, it can fire a continuous, high-damage laser beam, or summon a whole comet rain around you. The second one, the Blunderbuss, is a BFG that, at the cost of a full will bar, will cause a room-clearing explosion. The Blunderbuss is only available during the Final Boss unless you happen to find a hidden switch on your second visit to Caterpillar's Plot. To some, having such a long firing delay (Eyestaff) or completely exhausting what is essentially ammunition in one shot (Blunderbuss) brings them straight into Awesome, but Impractical territory. | |

Orcus on His Throne: Although the Queen of Hearts' shadow falls over the whole game, she really doesn't do much at all until Alice actually reaches her. This is further emphasized by the fact that the first Boss Battle against what seems to be the Queen is actually a fight against a decoy, and the real Queen does not bother with Alice until the fake is defeated. | |

Sanity Meter: You get more sane by drinking the essence of your kills! Try explaining this to your therapist after you finish the game. The developers said that this was used because it was better and far more interesting plot-wise than using a standard health meter and having Alice restore her health with medicine and bandages like the hero does in most games like this. (And frankly, having such stuff lying around Wonderland would make even less sense.) | |

Cuckoo Nest | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_b4322cd7 | comment |
Cuckoo Nest: The game reinterprets Alice in Wonderland as an actual delusion by an insane and institutionalized Alice. In this case the entire game is based on the presupposition that the original books were mental aberrations, with the different characters representing various personality fragments and psychoses. The game's manual provides the detailed journal of the psychiatrist who spent years treating Alice for her psychoses and makes frequent mentions of her ramblings and drawings, all of which somehow relate to the events of Wonderland. It's subverted in the sequel Alice: Madness Returns, where Alice is completely aware that her excursions to Wonderland are delusions. That doesn't make what she does there any less important. | |

Womb Level: The Queen Of Hearts' castle. Creepily organic, it's like you're working your body up through some intestines, through a ribcage, and up a cerebral column into the 'brain'. In fact most of the features of that section resemble a body part... which raises the question 'where did you enter?' Oh, just through a snug, hard-to-spot crevice in a wall. Queen Of Hearts, a writhing mass of tentacles herself, has tentacles sticking out in most of the levels (they often serve as visible Invisible Walls since you simply CANNOT climb onto them) The main core of her keep seems to be mostly made of ivory... | |

Unfortunately, this updated version of the game as well as the Complete Collection was pulled from all digital distribution platforms. American [McGee] himself has stated his intent to re-release all the Alice games on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Switch, though time will tell if this happens. | |

In a direct parallel with Carroll's life Bumby becomes obsessed with the daughter of his College's Dean. However, again, actual evidence of any misconduct by Carroll was never proven.

Composite Character | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: Averted, and quite possibly the only Alice in Wonderland adaptation that does not combine the Red Queen and the Queen of Hearts into the same person. | |

Grimmification | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_e957f245 | comment |
Grimmification: One that takes an already surreal and bizarre children's story to a darker direction with macabre imagery, twisted character interpretations, and themes of mental health problems. | |

Big Creepy-Crawlies | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_eb4086e3 | comment |
Big Creepy-Crawlies: In one level, most of Alice's enemies and the boss are giant insects. (Well, technically, they aren't giant; Alice has been shrunk to insect-size.) | |

Gusty Glade: Inverted in one area of the Hatter's Domain, where you can get sucked into machinery drawing in air. Played straight inside Queensland where visible gusts can blow you off while riding steam vents. | |

Mysterious Backer | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_eff7d17 | comment |
Mysterious Backer: Humpty Dumpty. When Alice speaks to him, he doesn't tell her anything useful... Or does he? It's not what he says, but what he does. If the player goes in the direction where he points to, Alice will find the blunderbuss, the most powerful weapon in the game, which is easy to miss otherwise. | |

Hopeless Boss Fight | |
| American McGee's Alice (Video Game) / int_fc07d409 | comment |
Hopeless Boss Fight: Alice can't defeat the Jabberwock without the Jabberwock Eye Staff, which she doesn't have the first time she confronts him. Thus, her goal the first time is to simply survive his attacks long enough for the Gryphon to come, tear his eye out, and send him running, giving her what she needs to assemble the weapon. (Ironically, while she can't win, this is a much easier battle to clear than the rematch, where she can - and must - defeat him.) | |
