Do you really need it?

Of course you do.  Unless you don’t, in which case… well, you’ll probably get it anyway.

(Was that cryptic enough…?)

I will tell you these things:  Soon, we will definitely want to see 10,000 fans on the Facebook page for Alice: Madness Returns (link to the left).  Next, not all clues will be as easy as the ones you’ve already gotten.  (Easy?  Sometimes, yes.)  Finally… we have something very awesome coming very, very soon, so you’ll want to stay tuned.  Oh, the agony of not being able to say more!  The humanity!  The horror!…

Subscribe, even!

In the meantime, do you see the new page?  We do.

A quick note

Many things are afoot here in the virtual world of Spicy Horse and the American McGee community.  You have all been showing your clever so well, finding the clues and putting them together!  Rest assured, it will all be for excellent results in the end… or maybe towards the middle.

In the meantime, enjoy this lovely interview with American and RJ from Techland.

From the article:

“For a generation of gamers, American McGee has more than a weird first name going for him. Ten years ago, the renowned game designer delivered American McGee’s Alice, a twisted vision of Lewis Carroll’s classic children’s story that caught up with a emotionally damaged Alice after her adventures in Wonderland. The game found huge financial success, selling a million copies back in the days when such feats were far less common. Alice went back to Wonderland after a great trauma and her journeys there stood as metaphors for the healing process. This angle–deeper than most games of the time–also helped push games as a medium capable of presenting mature and complex issues…”

Read the rest here!

Such charming persons

One of the lovely things about living on the internet is that we are bound to run into all kinds of grand adventures that sometimes come looking for us instead of the other way around.  These past two days have granted us just such an adventure, but I am grateful to say that the beasts have been vanquished, the impossible overturned, the hero has prevailed and – yes – we even had a little biscuit with our tea.

Now it’s back to the very serious business of exploring more about our Alice and her goings on, not to mention examining the teeth of a certain Pony of our acquaintance.  There are so many happenings, in fact, that we’re hard-pressed to figure out where to start…

Of course, the forum and blog are excellent, as are the Twitter feeds.  (Yes, both of them.)  And, in fact, were you on three of these four things alone, you might already have received a piece of a riddle… or maybe it’s a whole riddle that’s really a piece of a puzzle.  We’re still a little undecided how that taxonomy might work.

A little bird told me that you might almost be ready for another clue, and we might be willing to give you another:  If you recognized where you are at this exact moment, it bears two of four similarities with the place in which you might find your ordinances – or, one might say, about half.

With great popularity

by Lilith70 on August 3rd, 2010 at 5:33 pm
Posted In: Uncategorized

UPDATE: The forum is fixed now, so you can get in and register and everything.  Please let me know if you have any more odd experiences while trying to sign up.  American’s blog is still a little wonky, though: just be patient, and we’ll get him back online shortly.

… Well, maybe it’s not about the popularity, maybe it’s just coincidence.

At any rate, yes, we know about the many issues we’re having right now with the forum and blog and such.  We’re working with our hosts as well as fixing the problems ourselves.  This is a “manned website” (as in, we’re here every single day), and nothing goes without attention for very long.

In the meantime, have a cookie.  We’ll get everything back where it belongs soon.

Coming to fruition

by Lilith70 on July 30th, 2010 at 6:33 pm

At long last, the media blackout has ended and we are finally able to talk about the greatness that is Alice: Madness Returns.

Except… we’re not really going to talk very much about it just yet.

You see, there is still a pretty good span of time between now and the launch date.  There are still levels to be built, testing to be done, and tons more things to do.  (Yes, that means the vague rumors of its completion are false.  Sorry, Charlie.)  To tide you over until the Big Day, we have lots of events you can take part in.

For instance, if you happened to be on our forum this past week, and your registration included the option to receive newsletters from the administrators of the forum, you would have been one of the first to get a special clue – a riddle, if you will – that promises to take you on an enormously fun ride even before the launch date.

And by “fun”, we mean “mind-bending”, “challenging”, “frustrating”, and “immensely rewarding in both a personal and material sense”.

If you know what we mean.  >wink<

Your best course of action is to make sure that you are following both American and the White Rabbit on Twitter, that you’re signed up on and properly have Liked the Facebook pages (listed to the left), that you have registered on the forum (of course), and also that you know who you’re dealing with.  (Yes, that’s a Hint.)  Know your story well, and you may just come out a head.

Check back regularly with our snazzy new format to find out the latest.  You never know what you might find here that you won’t find anywhere else.
