About Alice's Gaze
Alice's Gaze is an idle clicker set in a haunted mansion where players guide Alice through light puzzles, resource collection, and idle combat. The game blends retro pixel art with a dark fairy‑tale atmosphere, letting wealth grow while you watch.
Progress is driven by activating the "Gaze" on industries, repairing furniture to unlock rooms, and descending dungeon floors to defeat monsters. Automation, upgrades, and hidden crystal‑ball worlds add depth as you seek the final truth behind the mansion’s darkness.
01 / THE GUIDE
Story and Setting
Alice awakens in total darkness inside a strange mansion, her memory erased. A golden‑haired girl in a blue dress appears in a mirror, giving her a name. The mansion is filled with bottomless shadows, a cat on an altar, and mysterious crystal balls that each hold a separate world.
The narrative pushes players toward hidden doors, staircases leading down, and a faint shriek that hints at danger. The goal is to solve mansion puzzles, battle dungeon monsters, and ultimately decide whether to escape or become part of the nightmarish realm.
- Explore every visible object; hidden doors often appear after cleaning furniture.
- Listen for audio cues like shrieks—they may indicate nearby secrets.

Idle Mechanics
Industries only operate when you activate the "Gaze" on them, creating a unique idle loop. Resources such as gold from the Cat God’s altar and carrots from Rabbitfolk accumulate while you are idle, allowing wealth to grow without constant input.
Automation can be achieved by repairing furniture, which unlocks new rooms and industries. This lets the player focus on higher‑level tasks while lower‑level production continues in the background.
- Prioritize repairing furniture that unlocks high‑yield industries.
- Activate the Gaze on multiple industries simultaneously for faster resource gain.

Combat and Dungeon
Players descend hundreds of dungeon floors, confronting terrifying monsters that block progress. Combat is idle‑based, with equipment upgrades enhancing your fighting power over time.
Defeating monsters yields resources and opens deeper levels, encouraging continued exploration and incremental improvement of combat capabilities.
- Upgrade equipment before tackling deeper floors to reduce idle combat time.
- Focus on defeating monsters that drop rare materials for faster upgrades.

Resource Management
Gold drops from the Cat God’s altar, while Rabbitfolk gather carrots. These materials, along with items found in rooms, can be hoarded, spent on automation, or used to repair furniture.
Collecting diverse materials fuels both the idle economy and combat upgrades, creating a loop where wealth supports stronger exploration.
- Balance gold and carrot collection to keep both idle production and combat upgrades funded.
- Store excess resources in the cloud save to avoid loss.
