Alice: Madness Returns
Alice: Madness Returns is a video game directed by American McGee and developed by Spicy Horse and published by Electronic Arts on June 14, 2011 in North America, June 16 in Europe, and July 21 in Japan for the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Madness Returns crosses genres such as action-adventure, platforming and fantasy horror.
Madness Returns is the second installment in the Alice series and a direct sequel to American McGee's Alice. A third game called Alice: Asylum is being proposed. There is a sequel to Madness Returns called Alice: Otherlands, although it is currently two animated short films and artwork.
The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of Madness Returns are bundled with a remaster of American McGee's Alice for free. On PC, however, it is only possible to obtain this remaster of American McGee's Alice through a Madness Returns bundle called "Alice: Madness Returns - The Complete Collection" on non-Steam digital distribution sites, or unofficial means. The Xbox 360 versions of both games are also playable on Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S via backwards compatibility.
Madness Returns focuses on a nineteen-year-old Alice Liddell after her release from Rutledge Asylum a year ago. She was currently living in Victorian London in the late 1875 under the medical counsel of a psychiatrist, Dr. Angus Bumby. Referenced by her former nurse Pris Witless in order to keep Alice off the streets and from becoming a prostitute, Alice has received a job and a room at the Houndsditch Home for Wayward Youth where she assists Bumby in caring for the orphans as a maid and errand runner.
