Disney Interactive Studios is working on an Alice In Wonderland game series to tie in with the upcoming Tim Burton film.

The games will be set some time after the original Lewis Carroll novel and its sequel Alice Through The Looking Glass. Taking place in a world of illusion and magic, the gameplay will require players to call upon their puzzle-solving skills.

"These games fully capture the magnificent and whimsical world of Underland while experiencing key moments from the film," said Craig Relyea, senior vice president of global marketing, Disney Interactive Studios.

"More than just a retelling of the movie, Alice In Wonderland introduces fans to an entirely new style of innovative gameplay designed to challenge the puzzle-solving skills of older players while making the adventures accessible and enjoyable for the younger crowd.

"Innovative gameplay and distinct artistic styles on each platform gives players a range of unique and engaging experiences," he added.

As well as taking control of the protagonist Alice, the Mad Hatter and Cheshire Cat have been confirmed as playable characters, whose unique skills must be called upon to solve certain puzzles. The Red Queen and Jabberwocky will serve as the game's antagonists.

Alice In Wonderland will be released for Wii, DS and PC in early 2010.

The trailer for this film looks weird. I always knew this film was going to be 'out there' but even I don't think I could watch something this crazy.

Also Johnny Depp looks completely insane and scary in his role which is surprising for a Disney film.

Just curious, have you read Alice in Wonderland? It isn't anything like the original film from Disney. This film looks more like very faithful to the novel vs the original Disney film. The novel is just pure strange and unpredictable, which the animated film wasn't IMO, it was dull to be honest, but this film looks like what the novel is, strange and unpredictable.

To me, the film looks a lot less creepy that I had thought. What did you expect from Tim Burton? Also what would you expect from any adaptation of Alice in Wonderland into a people movie? I think no matter what it would be crazy.

Also, there are a lot of Disney films out there that are far weirder than this.

    • Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size

      Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Payday 2, the most popular entry in the heisting game franchise, is getting a surprising update after all these years. This is slated to be a complete engine upgrade that will enhance almost every aspect of the 13-year-old title, targeting performance, loading times, file size, rendering backend, and more. Developer Sidetrack Games is planning a beta to test out the new version ahead of the full public launch. The development team today revealed that the long-awaited upgrade to the 64-bit architecture is happening with this Diesel 3.0 engine update. By letting the game use more ram than 4GB, it is said to improve stability and compatibility on most hardware. It should also help modders in the long term with implementing larger changes too. "While many of the changes are made on the backend and not everything will be visible to you guys because it is a massive rewrite of the entire codebase, there will be a lot of things that you can look forward to," Sidetrack explained. Payday 2 will also hop over from DirectX 9 to 11. Instead of visual improvements, this is slated to reduce the amount of VRAM used by the title, letting more lower-end hardware access the title and run it better. Since these changes would require a complete redownload of the game anyway, Sidetrack says it has revamped "the game's packaging and bundling system." This should reduce the installation size from 86GB to 32GB. "So, now it's time to finally move the game to your SSDs," added the studio. The Payday 2 Diesel Engine 3.0 update is entering open beta on June 30 for Steam users. No console release plans were announced today. Sidetrack Games says it has been working on this complete rewrite of the codebase for the last nine months. While these changes should break most mods, the studio encouraged modders to use the beta period to repair their creations with support from the development team.

      From the incredibly asinine idea of disposable AI datacenter satellites launching into low Earth orbit to building out yet another unnecessary mobile network, this con-man will do ANYTHING to scam investor suckers and get his stock prices up. This stinks of panic to me. Good.
