So for all of you shroom loving gamers out there (no not those kind) looks like you can look forward to a battling it out with character's from Lewis Carroll's famous children's story "Alice in Wonderland". That's right I said Alice in Wonderland, a new MMORPG is being developed by Virtual Fairground www.virtualfairground.com  that is geared toward female gamers and will see its commercial release sometime in mid-2010. 

“We really want to create a different kind of online game experience for girls”, says Ilja Goossens of Virtual Fairground. “There are already so much sugary sweet virtual worlds for this demographic or those that are just about shopping and buying things. We believe girls have more varied interests and preferences. Something that is clearly proven by other media such as books, tv-shows and movies.”

“As a company we have a philosophy of building worlds and MMO games based on existing brands and stories”, continues Maarten Brands. “So we looked at some of the classics and Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland was one of the stories that popped out, something that we could really use to create our vision of an alternative online game for girls.”

Alice in Wonderland will be a flash-based browser game, most likely free to play with some premium options.  This won't exactly be Free Realms style game-play so we will have to see how things work out in development.

You can follow the development at the official site: www.wonderlandmmo.com
