Finally got around to checking out this...

I - I - I just need a moment... HOT DAYUMN /fanboy seizure

Okay... honestly, I don't have anything intelligent to say about this. Just know that I love me some Alice, music, visuals and mood... I just love that game... Keep in mind, it came out long before the Tim Burton film, so at the time, a be-goth'd Alice in Wonderland was a very fresh idea, at least to my young innocent self. All I really have to say about this was that for many years I assumed by time the next Alice came out, I would have long outgrown the first. I was also worried that the imagery would be lacking in the wake of an overly Wonderland-saturated American culture.

But no... this looks awesome. The visuals and music will be enough for me to pick it up, even if gameplay is found lacking. So far, the only thing I have to nitpick about from the available videos is the voice acting, but I can forgive that provided the dialogue is as cleverly written as it was in the original.

My fetishism for grim girls and bald women aside, know that I am fully aware this game will be an exercise in corny goth-service... but I just find it to be too damn cute, and it's increasingly difficult to not go on and on about it. But, I shall nay do that! Instead, I will play the responsible Carroll-phile and await the completed game before getting my bloomers in a bunch. I would rarely say this, but expect a full game review for this one!




Now, if only someone would develop a game based on The Hunting of the Snark, the world would truly be a better place!
