American McGee's Alice is a third-person, action-adventure video game, that was developed by Electronic Arts Games and Rogue Entertainment. It was released on October 6, 2000 for PC and on July 20, 2001 for Mac. A PlayStation 2 port was in development but was ultimately canceled.

Designed by American McGee (hence the game's title) and featuring music produced and composed by Chris Vrenna, Alice acts as a macabre sequel to Lewis Carroll's best-known novels, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through The Looking Glass And What Alice Found There, and features elements from the shooter, platforming, and horror game genres. It was originally released with a casebook, which revealed additional plot details.

Plot:
Shortly after Through the Looking-Glass And What Alice Found There, at the age of 8, Alice Liddell witnessed the death of her family in a fire that broke out in her home, which was destroyed in the blaze. Suffering from survivor's guilt, Alice began to lose her grasp on reality and was ultimately sent to Rutledge Asylum for her insanity and catatonia. Nearly ten years after being committed, Alice was brought back into Wonderland, now a twisted and deadly version of itself, due to the horrible rule of the Queen of Hearts and additionally, Alice's own insanity. With the Cheshire Cat as her guide and the help of other creatures from her past adventures, it is Alice's task to kill the Queen, in order to save Wonderland and herself from the corruption.
