Shortly after her second adventure, Through the Looking-Glass, Alice's house is burnt down by an accidental fire, killing her family and leaving her as the only survivor. As time progresses Alice loses touch with reality. She is institutionalized in Rutledge Asylum, where she is observed and treated by Dr. Heironymous Wilson. Alice's only possession in Rutledge is a stuffed rabbit. Ten years after Alice was committed to Rutledge, she finds herself sucked back into a Wonderland that has been twisted by her own broken mind. The White Rabbit summons Alice to aid a radically altered Wonderland, which became a twisted version of itself as it came under the horrible rule of the Queen of Hearts. The Cheshire Cat serves as Alice's companion throughout the game, frequently appearing to guide her with cryptic comments.

A Horror Game Defined by Atmosphere Set within a strange and deeply personal darkness, this horror game leaves a lasting impression not through technical polish, but through mood. By today’s standards, its 3D graphics feel crude and angular, and yet that roughness only amplifies the unease. The visuals and music work together to create something oppressive, intimate, and unsettling. I wouldn’t consider myself a fan of horror games in general. Still, there’s something magnetic about this one. Its unusual art style and haunting soundtrack pull the player in, creating an atmosphere that lingers long after the screen goes dark. Ironically, the action itself is fairly conventional. Whether viewed as a first- or third-person shooter, it doesn’t differ much from others in the genre. What truly sets the game apart isn’t how it plays, but how it feels.
Yes! Please and thank you. The setting, the story and the vibe of this game is impeccable. I wanna give it another go and show it to my wife. She loves dark and twisted themes.

Just a down right great game. The craziness of the game is just top notch. I lost my original copy and would love to get a new one, and GOG is a great place to get it. I really hope it comes, and soon. I haven't played this in a long time.
I hope that one day I’ll get the chance to fully experience this incredible game again and lose myself in its dark, magical atmosphere. I started it once, but my computer crashed before I could finish. Ever since, I’ve been hoping to see it released on GOG!
American Mcgee's Aliceis a game that has solidified itself into my life. I grew up playing it, and have loved returning to it time and time again. It became my refuge when things in life were getting too stressful and I needed to rest my head. The only difference is that the only way for people to experience it right now are to buy it's sequel. I would love to see the original game put on the GOG store for new people to experience this wonderful-yet-twisted fever dream of a game.
Was introduced to it since the sequel, Madness Returns, came out. Really enjoyed the story of Alice and her dark, twisted, yet tragic tale of her life going down the rabbit hole of despair and misery.
A rare, unique, and beautiful combination of genres resulted in this amazing game, which I feel is... timeless and daring, perhaps in a noble way. The author's tragedy, the parent company's whim, and the unfinished ending (in terms of gameplay) are no reason for this gem not to reach this magnificent platform. Let's vote to bring this beautiful nightmare back to life once more!
this game is one of a kind, it´s dark, its mystical and has some nice horror aspect. I miss games like this with an own personality and some true story to tell. gameplay and story go hand in hand... a really nice game and the prequel to american mc gees alice madness returns

This is one of the best examples of dark fantasy, and I never had the chance to try it! Its art his beautiful, the gameplay is fun, the history is entertaining. Please return this game to the hands of PC Players
My mother is a big fan of Alice in Wonderland. She used to read me the book and we watched the movies when I was a kid. When I bought the xbox 360 I found this game and played it a lot with her, I would love to play it again for the memories!
Those games also need your vote!

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

Silent Hill 3
Silent Hill 3Silent Hill 3 is the third installment in the Silent Hill series. Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.
