* NightmareRetardant: The fairly dated graphics can certainly detract something from the Horror, especially [[SeinfeldIsUnfunny since the game is from late 2000.]]

* OnceOriginalNowCommon: In the decades since the game was initially released, the FracturedFairytale and {{Grimmification}} tropes have become incredibly common, and far more violent games have become just as popular, leading some to see ''Alice'' as needlessly edgy and bloody. Back during its initial release in 2000, the game was seen as unflinchingly brutal and dark for a video game, while its aesthetics were like nothing seen prior in the medium.

** Pretty much the entire Vale of Tears and Wonderland Woods is pure cancer (due to including both GoddamnBats and ThatOneBoss), but by far the worst single level is the one where the player goes river rafting with the Mock Turtle. Doing this on Easy is even more tedious and difficult, and requires more save-scumming, that fighting the Queen of Hearts on Nightmare. The level where you follow his bubbles underwater, by contrast, is fairly painless.

* CheeseStrategy: The fight with the Duchess can be cheesed outright by simply making Alice jump on the mantle and pelt the Duchess with knives or cards.

** The Jabberwocky's first stage is hard enough, but the second fight against it takes the cake as it flies around and breathes hard to dodge fire that could absolutely eviscerate you if you don't bounce around like crazy to reach the essence.

Added DiffLines:

** Waterlogged. Remove every weapon other than your knife, fight hordes of fish monsters while also fighting with the camera and bad melee hit registration, and include the possibility of drowning. Perfect recipe for a terrible level.

* AnnoyingVideoGameHelper: The Cheshire Cat. Less annoying than other examples since you actually have to summon his help but, the character's eponymous quirks being what they are, his "help" is often enigmatic to the point of uselessness.

The 2011 remastered version that was included in ''VideoGame/AliceMadnessReturns'', oddly enough, removed this feature altogether.
