I think everyone, or almost everyone has heard of such a writer as Lewis Carroll. But even if you did not hear about this writer, then you have apparently heard about his famous book called “Alice in Wonderland”. Everyone knows how Alice got into the country of miracles, what strange things began to happen to her there and what incredible and strange heroes she met there. But now we’ll not talk about the writer’s book, but about the game that is based on this book (as well as on the book “Alice in the Beast” – continuing the original book), called “Alice: Madness Returns”. This game was developed by Spicy Horse under the guidance of a game designer American McGoy. This person was known for his not very high -quality projects, such as Bad Day L.A ”, and his reputation was not very good, but still he created one game that the gamers liked – it was“ American McGee’s Alice ”, and the game“ Alice: Madness Returns ”is its continuation.
To be honest, I didn’t play in the first part of the game before that time, but when I played “Alice: Madness Returns”, I wondered what happened in the first part of the game, and I started playing “American McGee’s Alice”, and I liked the original “. But if you did not play and are not going to play the first part of the game, then this is not a big problem, the developers tried to make it so that on Alice: Madness Returns it was nice to play everyone without exception and even those who did not play the first part and they managed to succeed. Looking at before I want to say that I liked this game no less than the original.
First we will create our own profile, for this we just need to enter the name that we want to have in the game, and then choose one of the available levels of complexity and there are no problems with Games for Windows Live. I also want to emphasize that I liked the menu in “Alice: Madness Returns”, this applies not only to the main menu, but also to all others, whether it be the alice’s memoirs or the settings menu.
The events of the game https://euromaniacasino.co.uk/ "Alice: Madness Returns" originate eleven years after the events of the first game. After ten years of treatment in a psychiatric hospital, Alice was discharged from her, although the moral injury after the death of her parents remained. Alice lives in London, in a house for mentally ill orphans. Her psychiatrist should help to cope with Alice with her hallucinations that still pursue her. Alice wants to know the reason for the death of her parents, which is why she agrees to take a hypnosis course, but constantly during these hypnosis courses she sees terrible things. Once Alice goes to the market for medicines and meets there her old psychiatrist from the mental hospital, which helped Alice to move to London, at that time Alice begins to torment hallucinations and this is how we get into the country of miracles. Alice learns that during her absence, terrible evil intensified here, now Alice is trying to save the country of Wonders, and at the same time find out the truth about her past.
At first we find ourselves in the "classic" country of miracles, where everything around us flowering, bright and beautiful. Flowers, trees grow everywhere, water flows calmly, butterflies fly, dominoes fly in the air (this is normal for the country of miracles). But after some time, all this will change to gloomy locations that are filled with monsters, instead of butterflies there will fly some kind of killer bolts, and blood flows instead of water. But even these gloomy locations were delighted with me. They draw very well, walking on these locations, we will never have the impression that we are in the real world. All locations, without exception, struck my imagination, and I can say with confidence that these places can tear you away from the real world. It can be said right away that the developers tried on each location and this applies not only to the countries of miracles, but also by London, in which we will spend some time, unlike the last game.
In the game we will also have several types of weapons, such as the kitchen knife, our main weapons, pepper -working behind the Prince of the machine gun, it can also overheat, a bomb in the form of a rabbit in a hat, this bomb will help us to break through some walls, an umbrella -will help to hide from hostile attacks, the horse is the head of the horse on a wooden stick, which Alice uses as a hammer and as a hammer and a hammer. Chaustrel is an automatic machine that has a kettle shape and shoots hot tea. In addition, we will be able to modernize our murder tools, while we are not informed that it will be modernized. By the way, the weapon improvement menu also looks very stylish. We will modernize weapons for the teeth, which we will find in different boxes, vases and cups, the teeth will also fly out of defeated enemies (which is logical). According to some reports, these are Alice’s milk teeth. Roses of different sizes will also fly out of enemies, roses can also be found in boxes, these flowers will resume our health supply.
Varieties of enemies in the game will be not enough. There are monsters for all tastes, simple worms from some black substance, more monsters, from the same black substance with the head of the doll, besides these monsters have several varieties. Then we will still meet teapots – spiders, with one eye and it is this eye that is their weak place. There will also be small dwarfs that fight with dishes and launder dining rooms, such as forks and spoons. And the latter on the list, but not by value, this is a guard card, by the way, they are made very cool, their limbs are sewn, holes in their stomach are on their stomach, and instead of their heads they have skulls in the hoods. And this is not all enemies in the game. It was very pleased that in order to kill enemies it is not enough to press the mouse at a crazy speed, in this game you need to approach the battles wisely, use all possible types of weapons and capabilities of Alice, use weaknesses of enemies, and so on, moreover, the monsters will not expect you to deal with one enemy, they will attack all together and this is a buzz.
In addition to enemies in the game, we will also meet positive characters. The main thing is, apparently, the Cheshire cat, he will accompany us throughout the game, while he will appear only in some places and give us advice. At first, he appears for the game behind his will, but then we can already call him of his own free will, in certain places. Further, the duchess is walking along the list, it was she who gave us her pepper, by the way, in the last part of the game she was a boss and wanted to eat Alice. Also, a crazy hatchman and turtles will also be from positive heroes.
Now I will talk about Alice’s skill. Our main character can make such tricks. That Coperfield himself could learn from her. For example, how to decrease and increase in size. Alice can change her size, from the very beginning of the game she can decrease, which helps her pass through some small doors, also in this mode Alice can see some tips that help to advance in level. Later, Alice will also learn to increase, which will help greatly in the battle, Alice can also soar on her dress. Alice can also turn into a flock of butterflies to escape from hostile attacks. And of course Alisa Liddel, as each girl is able to roll up a hysteria. Hysteria mode can be turned on when Alice has a minimum of vitality. Going into this regime, Alice first repels her enemies from herself and becomes much stronger. When moving to this mode, only three colors remain on the screen: red, white and black.
You can also emphasize the good animation of Alice, this animation succumbed to all Alice, including even her hair. This is especially good when she moves along the locations and flies on her dress, in the battle of Alice, by the way, it looks no worse than when she flies on her dress, besides, she is painted very beautifully. Alice enemies, by the way, also boast of good animation. All this beauty of animation and beautiful locations is provided to us by the game engine Unreal Engine 3.5. The voices of the characters and music are picked up very well and as a result, they coolly fit into the style of the game.
I also want to hook the topic of continuation of the game, in an interview with American McGi, he said that he was ready to work on the third part of the game, and now it all depends on Electronic Arts.
And lastly, I’ll say that in “Alice: Madness Returns” you definitely need to play, good locations, many types of enemies, an interesting plot and a beautiful main character. Well this is a bad option? This is definitely not a bad option and you need to play the game!
