American McGee is best known for his American McGee’s Alice video game, a nightmare version of Alice in Wonderland published in 2000. And now he is testing the demand for a third game based on the Alice franchise.
In a blog post, McGee said he will start work on a proposal for the next chapter in Alice’s adventures, tentatively titled Alice: Asylum. He said the proposal would include art work, design outline, and the financial plan and business model.
“When this proposal is finished (and assuming all the numbers and constraints make sense) it’ll be sent to EA. You can show your support for this effort by signing up to the mailing list below,” McGee wrote. “Let’s show EA how many people want a new Alice game!”
Out of the Woods, a fairy tale tabletop card game and book. He successfully raised $259,744 on Kickstarter for the project, which is scheduled to be delivered in 2018.
EA published the original Alice, which was McGee’s dark take on Alice in Wonderland, made memorable by images of Alice holding a bloody butcher’s knife. In 2011, EA also published a sequel, Alice: Madness Returns, a new psychological horror action-adventure game. McGee’s Chinese game studio, Spicy Horse, developed the game and EA published it across the consoles and Windows.
