I guarantee that she is just high.

Not quite. This game is the sequel to the original Alice by American McGee, published in 2000. Wiki mentions (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_McGee's_Alice):
Plot
Shortly after her second adventure, Through the Looking-Glass, Alice's house is burned down by an accidental fire, killing her family, and leaving her as the only survivor. As time progresses Alice loses touch with reality. She is institutionalized in Rutledge Asylum, where she is observed and treated by Dr. Heironymous Wilson. Alice's only possession in Rutledge is a stuffed rabbit. Ten years after Alice was committed to Rutledge, she finds herself sucked back into a Wonderland that has been twisted by her own broken mind. The White Rabbit summons Alice to aid a radically altered Wonderland, which became a twisted version of itself as it came under the horrible rule of the Queen of Hearts. The Cheshire Cat serves as Alice's companion throughout the game, frequently appearing to guide her with cryptic comments.
Setting
The game's setting presents a considerably more macabre rendition of Wonderland than seen in Lewis Carroll's original portrayal. Wonderland, being a creation of Alice's mind, has been corrupted by her insanity. Alice's primary objective is to save Wonderland, and in doing so restore her own sanity.
In short: Awesomeness guaranteed.
While the original game is 11 years old and substandard regarding graphics, I would certainly recommend playing it still, if only for the story.
No other fans? I can't be that old :(

I never played the first one but I like the trailers to this. I just smoked though so perhaps that's it.

For those of you currently nodding your "American McGee #1 Genius" foam Pope hats, I'd like to point you to the classic "Old Man Murray" review of the original:

(OMG I've been waiting for fucking years to pull that one out.)

To anyone wanting to play the original just remember pirating is illegal and immoral, so if you ever see something like this (http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4923898/American_McGee__s_Alice_PC_[ResourceRG_Games_by_KloWn])
avoid it at all costs
