'''''Alice: Madness Returns''''' is the sequel to the 2000 video game ''[[American McGee's Alice]]'', and once again puts you in control of Alice Liddell, as she attempts to save Wonderland from a rampaging train and her own subconscious.
The game takes place one year after the conclusion of the original, and Alice is still struggling to recover from the emotional trauma of losing her entire family in a fatal fire. After spending a decade institutionalized in an insane asylum, she is finally released to the care of a psychiatrist, Dr. Bumby, who tries to help her conquer the nightmarish hallucinations that still haunt her. Alice embarks on a mission to root out the true cause of her family's mysterious death by returning to Wonderland, which has... [[Crapsack World|taken a turn for the worse]]. By teaming up with [[Heel Face Revolving Door|old friends (and foes)]] and journeying through a variety of expansive locales, Alice must work through her own mind to discover the truth about the accident that killed her family... even if it makes her go insane.
Line 276:
* [[Shoot the Bullet]]: One way of stunning an ethereal enemy once it starts chucking explosives at Alice.
* [[Shout-Out]]: You'll find one hidden staircase in the Queen's Castle that leads down to a tiny throne. In it sits a small skeleton [[Psychonauts|sporting goggles]] and a [[Pstandard Psychic Pstance]]...
** Speaking of which, the collapse of her tower, complete with eye on top, recalls the demise of a [[The Lord of the Rings|certain ethereal tyrant]].
* [[Shows Damage]]:
** The [[Giant Enemy Crab]] enemy in the game loses its [[Arm Cannon]] in a Type 3B fashion. Yet the most flamboyant one has got to be the Doll Girl. Alice can first strip its clothes off, remove its arms, crack open its torso, and finally waste the huge abomination by destroying the heart.
