Eleven years ago a horrific fire took Alice’s family from her and left her mind horrifically scarred. Afterwards she was confined to Rutledge Asylum, where she struggled to confront her demons by slipping further into her fantasy world of Wonderland. Now, after ten years, she has finally secured her release—yet she still bears the heavy psychological burden of that tragic event.
With her mind in tatters, she is unable to resolve the fear prompted by her strange memories, dreams, and visions. Perhaps she’ll do better in Wonderland. She always has. She travels there, seeking what the “real” world can’t provide: security, knowledge, and the truth about the past. But in her absence, Wonderland too has suffered. Something has gone horribly wrong, and now a great evil is descending upon what once was her beautiful refuge. Can Alice save Wonderland—and herself—from the madness that consumes them both?

OMGURD! Thank you thank you thank you! I was waiting for this one. It looks exciting, and very creepy. But being as I will be killing the creepy things, that makes me feel better.

 

What do you mean by monotonous platforming?

Well that's more of a generalization in my own opinion. I can only do so much platforming before I get frustrated and/or bored haha. It's nowhere near as bad as some games out there, but I've found myself missing a couple easy jumps.
