About the game
What you do in a play session
Ever wondered what would have happened if Alice had ignored the 'Drink Me' bottle or skipped tea with the Mad Hatter? Alice's Nightmare in Wonderland lets you explore those exact 'what if' scenarios. Years after her classic adventures, Alice returns to Wonderland, but the vibe is far more sinister this time. The realm of talking animals and playing cards is under the threat of the increasingly deranged Queen of Hearts.
But be warned: in this dream world, nothing is as it seems. What starts as a rescue mission quickly turns into a desperate struggle for Alice to save herself from a nightmare that is rapidly overtaking the entire realm. In this experience, you aren't just a reader; you are the one in control. Through a gamebook system, you decide which routes Alice takes, which perils to risk, and which of Wonderland's strange denizens to battle.
The game blends immersive reading with the tension of chance. You'll need paper and pencil to track your progress and dice to resolve conflicts. Every decision carries weight: one wrong move could lead Alice to a dire end, while the right choice could save the world. With three different play modes and multiple endings to uncover, the experience is tailor-made for those who love branching narratives and the pressure of deciding the protagonist's fate. Are you ready to go back down the rabbit-hole and face this nightmare?

What's included in the box/book?
