Alice is Dead: Episode 1

About

Alice is Dead: Episode 1 drops you into a twisted version of Wonderland where logic doesn’t apply and the rules are written in tea stains. You wake up with no memory, just a pocket full of odd items and a need to escape. The gameplay leans heavily on inventory-based puzzles that twist familiar Carrollian imagery into something darker. Clicking around environments reveals hidden objects and cryptic clues, but solutions often require lateral thinking and a tolerance for ambiguity. The lack of hand-holding means progress can feel slow, but each breakthrough is satisfying. The game’s most striking feature is its willingness to challenge players without apology. Puzzles range from straightforward to brutally opaque, with several reported to have stumped even seasoned point-and-click fans. A built-in walkthrough eases frustration but encourages self-reliance, use it sparingly. While the art style leans moody and surreal, the real draw is the brainwork. With a 7.2/10 on IMDB and mixed but curious player reactions, it’s clear this isn’t a casual romp. Those who stick with it praise the payoff, though few finish without outside help.
