Wonderland MMO

Being touted as an MMO game for teenage girls, Virtual Fairground is developing Wonderland MMO. The MMO game will be based on the famous story Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.

Wonderland MMO was started in 2008 and will launch in mid-2010. Wonder if that’s right around when the movie launches? The world and the game is Flash-based so it runs from the browser.

With Wonderland MMO Virtual Fairground aims to create an online hang-out with a darkly romantic and mysterious style. “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.”

The site isn’t open yet, but you can give them your email to keep you updated at www.wonderlandmmo.com/. As an Alice fan, I’m curious and will probably at least try it out.
