Story: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.Show more

This game introduced me to the world of twisted & dark fairy tales. The story, the setting, the gameplay, the art style, the soundtrack - all incredible, especially for its time. I'd love to see this game, and its sequel, preserved DRM-FREE. If possible, I'd love to see an art book and the soundtrack being sold alongside the game!
It's a shame that we won't be able to enjoy a conclusion to this trilogy (the design bible for the third game is available on McGee's socials, so you can read the planned ending), but it's a bigger shame that the game that started it all has been left to rot. Please, consider supporting the restoration of one of the greatest dark adventure games out there, the conjunction of mind bending and gothic imagery is yet unmatched, the writing is superb, and the experience simply magical. Come down the rabbit hole.
A game that has been for decades on my bucket list. Never owned, never played it.
GOG, please, make it happen. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
I graduated HS with the guy who created the soundtrack, Chris Vrenna formerly of NIN. Bought the disc when the game hit the shelf! The game itself is glitchy and needs some work, BUT the soundtrack is fantastic and worth the price, IMO.
This game, and its sequel, is one that's always meant a lot to me. It came out the same year as I was born, but I discovered it when I was young, and was obsessed ever since. It is a genuinely impressive piece of passionate artistry and risk that you just don't see triple A companies putting out anymore. It's a dark, but sympathetic look at a young, traumatized girl desperately trying to come to terms with her past and save herself from self-annihilation. (Making it far more than just a run-of-the-mill 'dark and edgy' fairy tale/Alice adaptation--there is genuine love and hope in this game). The art direction and music are absolutely beautiful and creatively unhinged, and the gameplay still manages to hold up decently well. I love this game with all my heart, and have always wanted to see it become more accessible to everyone else so that they can love it too.
I didn't play this game until well after it's release, and accessing it on modern platforms is more hassle than it should be (you basically have to buy the sequel and use external patches to access Alice 1 on its own - and that's just for PC players). This game has an incredible mood - gorgeously macabre scenery, a beautifully creepy soundtrack, and characters with poetic wit that's a breath of fresh air from modern quipping protagonists. It's a real gem of its time, and absolutely deserves to be properly preserved.
I finished the sequel (Alice: Madness Returns) to this game last year (2024) and I have never played the first. The second was awesome and I would love to play the first!
Had played this years ago when it was bundled with Alice Madness Returns but i would love to buy this on its own.One of my all time favorite pc games ever. Everything about the visuals from the world to the alternate takes to the characters and enemies felt so amazing to me when i first played it.
Just yesterday, I realized there is only part two on Steam and GOG. I already own the game in box, there are online guides to kinda make it work on modern systems but I still can't buy this classic in digital? Heresy! Please bring this hidden gem back, be persisent with EA, reach American James McGee if needed but make it happen!

The Addams FamilyBased on the Addams Family movie, the TurboGrafx-16 CD version is quite different from the other Addams Family variants. The player is cast in the role of Tully Alford, the crooked lawyer of the Addams family. He finds out that somewhere in the family mansion, a great treasure is stored in a vault. He decides to venture into the mansion and retrieve the treasure. Naturally, this is going to be anything but easy, as the insane Addams family members and a legion of ghosts and monsters are there to make sure the lawyer fails...
Like most other Addams Family incarnations, this is a side-scrolling action game. Tully Alford's only weapon is an umbrella that fires energy shots at enemies. Tully can also jump and duck to avoid enemy blows. The game world consists of a "hub" area, the hall of Addams Family mansion, and many rooms, most of which are locked in the beginning of the game. The gameplay consists mainly of exploring the accessible rooms and collecting keys that are needed to open other doors in the process. Some of the rooms contain treasure and power-ups, while others are infested by monsters or require the player to defeat a boss enemy in order to advance.Comedy Horror
