I find it very hard to find another game like "Alice: Madness Returns."

Although, if she liked the visuals and good story telling, she might enjoy "Enslaved: Odyssey to the West." It's a light platformer with some similar combat. Visually, it's pretty unique. But the story is where it's all at. Very cinematic and enjoyable all the way. I'd check it out. :)


And... if you guys happen to have a PS3, I'd recomend checking out "Valkyria Chronicles" and "Shadows of the Damned."

"Valkyria Chronicles" is more of an RPG/TBS/TPS. It's got alot of anime flavour to it, with a fun story overall. It's a very brightly coloured, and light-hearted game imo. The combat system is interesting enough too, and can lead to some fun situations.

As for "Shadows of the Damned," it's a full-on TPS, very similar to "Dead Space 2" (worth checking out too imo. (check "Dead Space" before though.)) The visuals/art direction are quite similar to Alice; it's defintely dark with lots of gore. It's got more humor than expected... with a whole lot of demon killing.

If it's the art style and horror story spin on fairytales she likes, you might want to look into something call American McGee's Grimm

Hmm Fable the lost chapters is pretty good for PC. It has a great storyline, and it's not that hard to get into. It's noob friendly :). I guess you've heard about the game but I guess you forgot?

Grimm, Undying and the first Alice

Rule of Rose feels a lot like the beginning of the game, also.

It may sound odd, but Batman: Arkham Asylum plays very similar to Alice.

Especially with the dark, psychological atmosphere, the "detective mode" that's similar to the "shrunk vision", the Riddler trophies are similar to the Memories, and then you have the unlockable art, character bios and levels designed like chapters...

Haha! Happened something similar...

Me: looking through the sales page on Steam...
Girlfriend: (out of nowhere) "oh... that's an Alice in Wonderland game, right?"
Me: "yep and it's on sale"
Girlfriend: plays until 5:00am her first game on steam...
Me: drooling in the couch next to her, completely asleep...

So now that I have a gamer girl I started looking for some games...

Child of Light - An RPG that I think has co-op, amazing art style...

Tomb Raider and the Guardian of Light - Against all odds my GF loved playing it, grat co-op...

Guacamelee - Another Co-op game with a mexican/Mark of the Ninja art style...

Alice - the first game, had the cd completely buried from my teenage years... you can play it on consoles or doing a not so legal download to play through the second game.

Gone home - New type of game, like an old "Lucas Arts" graphic adventure, but made by hipsters for hipters...

Stanley Parable... Same as above

Limbo
Trine
Braid - All side scrollers...

And almost all Lego games but I find them too childish...

Hope it helped, cheers!

Nop, there is not a PC version, it is a console exclusive. For the OP, I recommend you to check this game. it is not finished yet but it looks good and is similar to Alice.

Killer Is Dead

That game is bonkers! It is a similarly very stylishly artsy character action game in vain with Alice, even more nuts. I haven't played it myself as it has been console only thus far, but am looking forward to its PC release which is slated for early May.

There is Master Reboot - game about puzzles and little horror girls, Papo & Yo - about kid's troubles transformed into surrealistic world (actually this one is veeeeery similar with Alice :happymeat: )
Also, The Path - very dark girly game and Don't Srarve - mystic horror world for exploration. And Grimm - "turn happy fairy tale into nightmare" :happymeat:

I see a few games here and there's a series I would recommend for gothic platforming with a puzzle element - the Legacy of Kain series. I know that not all of Blood Omen is available on Steam but LOK Soul Reaver 1 & 2 and LOK Defiance (which ties up both the soul reaver spin off and main blood omen stories) are. I think BO 2 is available on Steam but not the first one (could be other way round but I have had no sleep). The LOK games are a bit old now but the acting and story are first class and timeless. SR is not compatible with a 360 pad (not sure about the others as this series keeps being put on hold for me) but my arcade stick I bought for MK works with it a treat.
