Japanese publisher Regista Co., Ltd. has officially launched Alice in Wonder Underland – AIWU –, a bizarre exploration adventure where gamers utilize outfit-based abilities to traverse a series of dreamlike realms that feel both recognizable and eerily unsettling. The title is now available on Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam).
Originating as a concept developed over a decade ago and initially envisioned as a manga, AIWU draws players into a world where familiar locales appear subtly warped, with each new route depending on the player’s adaptability.
Inspired by transitional spaces and the unsettling feeling of the familiar becoming strange, AIWU delivers a non-linear exploration journey focused on discovery, ambiance, and the connections players forge along their path.
Players follow Alice and her companion, Noir Bunny, as they traverse peculiar worlds in search of her missing voice. Throughout their adventure, Alice encounters strange occurrences and gathers a diverse array of items.
Scattered throughout each world are odd, misplaced objects. As players gather these items, patterns start to surface, uncovering hidden links beneath the surface. All findings can be revisited in Alice’s room, complete with hand-drawn artwork and commentary.
Alice in Wonder Underland – AIWU – also includes various outfits that players can collect, enabling them to explore over 30 distinct handcrafted worlds. There is no set path for players to follow, allowing them to explore the different worlds at their own pace.
Alice in Wonder Underland -AIWU- is now available on PC (Steam) and the Nintendo Switch (EU / NA) with a limited-time 20% discount for launch.
