Oh... Alice. Of course I did. ;)
I like the characterization, overall, but the game itself? Not so much... Alice is just crazy enough so it's good. But not something I'll play again... Though I was tempted to make a Desktop Assistant out of her model for that game... :ugeek:

Oh of course you did, ;)

Some of the levels are crazy awesome to look at, I thought although... well... the dollshouse levels that was just... *shudder* Freud would have a field day with Alice's subconscious. The story was based on Alice in Wonderland, I guess, so I'm not sure how much coherency I was actually LOOKING for.

Oh, Alice. I love that one. Jesus, I love that one. I really do hope they come out with the third soon.

Well I hear McGee had one in his head that would be something to do with Alice jumping through the minds of other people with psychological issues, similar to her own and sort of... fixing them via psychological percussive maintinence, I guess. But I'm not sure if they're actually going to make it... I hope they do.

I remember seeing the original of the game in Woolworths (oh god, Woolworths) years and years back... oh if I had picked it up then, how changed would my present have been.

I just want to see more of Londerland. That ending was far too short to do it any justice.

Agreed. I err on the side of it being a happier ending, since Mcgee apparantly assumed it was, even if she is kinda psychologically screwed up for the rest of all eternity... at least LOndon looks cool.

Too much Psychonauts if he goes that route... Unless we have the option to... er... fix, people's heads too... Knowing McGee it might just be a possibility... And of course I would play it. :D

As would I. :D Could be neat to see. (One of the psychonaut characters apparantly popped up in Madness returns actually... somewhere in the Heartland, I think).

Not my kind of game. I like psychotic stuff. Not jump scares. :D Maybe if I could play AS Slenderman it'd be a little more fun.

What about Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure.
Gameplay blends platforming and puzzling in a unique way
And it is hilarious :lol:

Great, but the series went down after the 4th generation.

Only played the 3rd. Too repetitive. One game for the price of two makes me hate it. Can't do everything by myself alone in my basement.

I've recently started playing it again because I discovered a new Self-Imposed Challenge: Nuzlocke run.
Basically you can catch only the first pokemon you find in a location, and you're not allowed to use a pokemon again if it faints.
Pretty tough x)

(And there are about 650 I think)
