Each character is Alice's adventures in wonderland brilliant children. But it's hard to imagine the "imagination" of the game makers turn to just how rich of the Alice story adapted into a horror game! Also the character of Alice but instead meet the fairy character she faced aggressive monsters, guards ugly ... come from everywhere: the sky, the ground, lakes and caves deep underground. Are you skeptical? So welcome to the "world of adult fairy" of one of the famous game designers - American McGee - has little contribution to two famous lines of Quake and Doom games.
Lost in Nightmares
Actually if said American McGee's Alice (AMA) is a new chapter of the book "Alice lost in Wonderland" is true, but to say this is a different version, it is not wrong. Specifically, the AMA will be followed Alice's adventures after his return from dreamland. Once awake, a terrible accident that had befallen Alice first family. The fire burned unjust Alice's house and she was the only one to survive the disaster. Since then, Alice almost lost his soul and be put into a mental institution for treatment. What Alice did not expect this event also always changing world in her imagination a profound destiny of the fairy character is threatened by the evil born animals. Under the guidance of two friends that have cats wry smile - Cheshire, and white bunny struggling day and night with the clock ticking, Alice must once again return to the fairy world, currently the kingdom of darkness under the reign of Queen Hearts - the embodiment of fear, selfishness Alice in itself - to find his soul and save the magical world of childhood.
How pretty or play
a game AMA is not difficult but also not that boring to you soon: it combines pure action genre and some puzzle elements, find their way. Games not ask for anything more from you in addition to skillfully combine skills to run, jump with the weapon used to control Alice overcome all obstacles, and destroy the way of other creatures. AMA has all 15 screens with the map screen is quite diverse, spanning many different areas of dreamland. From domestic scene as libraries, schools to external as rivers and forests ... Each scene will be highlighted topics: cave, the murky aura cold while the majestic castles, wicked. The game does not bind you into a space "trite" as real-life world (because if it was anything like real fairy called again?) But instead of gaming space by vivid sky, how layout objects evoke the feeling of suspense that has attracted both excited again. Depending on the area where Alice will go through many obstacles appear to you funding your control. The majority of the playing time AMA, you have to help Alice to jump over the steep cliffs, swinging on vines cling or submerged in the blue water of the river that flows through dreamland ... Most relatively pleasant ordeal, but others need a lot of time to pass. Sometimes just a moment of levity as you can get killed Alice (Alice controls such as short jump from this building to building). The reason I say difficult because the AMA does not allow us to save the game at any time by the regime Quick Save, Quick Load. So sometimes if you do not find peace of mind to go forward then you can save it back to the old position immediately.
During their entire journey, you will encounter just about 30 main characters and villains area, but most of them are enemies that you will face in the game. The most common is we all Western troops in wonderland, you will meet them in most of the screen, except that they use weapons more dangerous and more skilled. Not only soldiers, nor should you disregard the other monsters. For example, in the forest you will encounter is said army gun and wounded, and predatory fish in the river we will work to if you accidentally touch the feet into the water ... Of course, you do not necessarily have to fight with all, especially when playing in hard mode. The higher the difficulty level the frequency of appearance of the bottle "blood" and the less you have to rely on their skills in potions than this. Kill the boss is indispensable in an action game, Alice is no exception. After playing about two or three consecutive rounds, you will encounter bosses (there are a total of seven bosses, including the final boss, in dreamland). Be warned that this war is not simple, because the speed of their attacks is pretty fast and pretty much draw your "blood". To destroy, a prerequisite is that you must look out for the weak rather concealed their skills. And this part I had to give it back to you discover only. During her journey, Alice will earn seven different weapons, is the most basic and advanced knife is the most consistent bat aquatic assembled from three different parts, the remaining weapons as the case may be specifically promote efficiency. The function of this weapon is diverse, each with two different ways using the built based on the left and right mouse buttons. Left Button is the most basic way to use as stabbing, throwing explosives, darts ... Second function also depends on your tactics when dealing with many different opponents, for example instead of the grenade will explode as soon as you throw, it will blow a ring of fire around the burn Other objects and then exploded. You should note that the effects of these weapons not only affect opponents but also yourself there again, so be careful when using! To help you breathe easier in the game, in addition to weapons, there are more skill Alice "transformation" through three bottle spirit to rise three different skills: the red bottle rising power, turning Alice into a demon, with blue vial running speed, blow the fullest, even purple bottle will help her become invisible for a short period of time.
The graphics and sound satisfactory
Because it is built on the Quake III engine fame, AMA should bring impressive visual performance (of course only in comparison with the same period was only game). The game uses dark colors, especially black or dark blue as the dominant color to increase the mystery, scary. Every weapon that Alice uses are accompanied by an eye-catching visual effects such as fireballs shooting out flaming, exploding inflate at many tiny dots, then gently melt into air, river have reflective water effects and real relative refractive (though how water waves on the shore, the transition was rough and hard) ... Overall, the model of the particular character and the other characters in general are very good up to highlight the character's personality through appearance and gestures. parallel with the graphics of the game soundtrack very well matched. The entire game's soundtrack is talented composer Chris Vrenna (Grammy winning) should undertake an excellent, reminds emotional player. Rhythm of them mainly exploited to cause psychological fear for the player, because the AMA is a horror game. You can see more details about this composer www.tweaker.net website.
A game worth playing
AMA is a simple game, so if your patience plus a little ingenuity, the game can be completed within 3 to 4 days (well slightly long, right). Thankfully, the game requires configuration but quite mild but still ensure quality as I mentioned. When the imagination of the rich people, they can create dozens of other fascinating things , including starting a fairy tale for children.
