- “This game had beautiful whimsical graphics and the gameplay somewhat reminded me of the LEGO PC games.”
- “This version, if you have an NVIDIA graphics card, is unreal in the quality and graphics.”
- “Graphically, the game looks like it should have released 5 years earlier than it did; it is not the most visually pleasing game from 2010.”
- “American McGee's Alice: Madness Returns (released in 2011) had better controls and graphics than this Disney version.”

The game's story offers a unique narrative that loosely follows the movie's plot, providing an engaging experience distinct from a cinematic presentation. Players appreciate the depth of environmental storytelling and the overall quality of the art, though some find certain gameplay elements, like item collection, frustrating without helpful indicators. Overall, the storyline is well-received, with many players eager to replay it and explore its fairy tale themes.
- “It's not a shot for shot of the movie; it has its own story that generally follows the plot of the movie, but you are definitely playing a video game here, not watching a CGI movie or anything.”
- “This game is brilliant; the story is clear and keeps you guessing throughout the whole game.”
- “The only things I found annoying were Alice being in my way constantly (I just wanted to punch her lol) and when you finish the story mode and searching for those extra items that you didn't get the first time around, it's like finding a needle in a haystack without bonus indicators (which I really like from the LEGO games). I really think this game should have them since you have to find so many chests; also, I wish this game would've had Steam achievements.”
- “It's not a shot-for-shot of the movie; it has its own story that generally follows the plot of the movie, but you are definitely playing a video game here, not watching a CGI movie or anything.”
- “That being said, I think it was a wonderful experience. It wasn't a AAA cinematic title, as most movie tie-in video games aren't, but the art was certainly above average and the environmental storytelling was more in-depth than compared to similar titles.”
