Review analysis summary (Reviewed Oct 31, 2026)
Its storybook art and card puzzles earn Alice Nation a score of 87.2, top 30% of games we analyzed.
👍 Strengths
111 reviews praise the visuals, describing a fantasy storybook art style with exquisite character designs. Visuals & Sound ranks 205th of 1249. 56 credit the story, and some single out darker revelations hidden behind the cute look. Story & World ranks 529th of 1096. 46 enjoy the strategy of using cards to interact with scenes and characters, with puzzles that often allow several solutions. Gameplay ranks 762nd of 1396, and a few say it feels like a genre they had not played before.
👎 Where it falls short
84 reviews say guidance is weak for new players, with low error tolerance, events that lock permanently and key items that are easy to waste, so some turn to guides or replay. A few also mention UI text left untranslated. 19 find the story writing uneven, pointing to grammar errors and a forced backstory, and some feel the English translation misses the wordplay. 16 discuss difficulty, with some calling certain puzzles too hard without hints and others finding the game easy.
