Welcome to this review of Alice's Abenteuer, a game for the Atari 2600. Released in 1982 by the German game developer, Hans Bourlard, this game is an adaptation of Lewis Carroll's famous novel, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The objective of the game is to guide Alice through a series of levels, each one based on a chapter from the book. In each level, you must collect a certain number of items while avoiding obstacles and enemies. The items include tea cups, cakes, and playing cards, while the obstacles include mushrooms, caterpillars, and other creatures from the book. As you can see, the graphics are very simple, even by Atari 2600 standards. Alice is represented by a small square, and the items and obstacles are represented by even smaller squares. However, this simplicity actually works in the game's favor, as it allows for smooth gameplay without any lag or slowdown. The controls are also simple and responsive. You use the joystick to move Alice around, and the button to make her jump. The jumping mechanics take a little getting used to, as Alice's jump height varies depending on how long you hold down the button. However, once you get the hang of it, it becomes second nature. One thing that sets Alice's Abenteuer apart from other Atari 2600 games is its music. The game features an original score by Bourlard, and it's surprisingly good. The music changes from level to level, and it's always upbeat and catchy. However, the game does have some flaws. For one thing, it can be quite difficult. The enemies move fast and unpredictably, and it's easy to get cornered or trapped. The game does have a continue feature, but it's limited to three continues, so you'll need to be strategic about when you use them. Another issue is the lack of variety. While the levels are based on different chapters from the book, they all follow the same basic formula of collecting items and avoiding obstacles. There are no boss battles or other types of gameplay to mix things up. Finally, the game's ending is a bit underwhelming. After completing the final level, you're treated to a short animation of Alice waking up from her dream and going back to the real world. It's a nice touch, but it feels a bit anticlimactic after all the effort you put into completing the game. All in all, Alice's Abenteuer is a solid Atari 2600 game that's worth checking out, especially if you're a fan of Lewis Carroll's book. The simple graphics and controls make it accessible for anyone, while the challenging gameplay will keep you coming back for more. Just don't expect anything too groundbreaking or innovative. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpEhYTbAji8
