Si tratta di un booklet in regalo col videogame "Joker no Kuni no Alice", per festeggiare il quinto anniversario della Quinrose, per questo nonostante il titolo i capitoli riguardante Alice hanno ancora l'ambientazione vecchia (ovvero Cloverland). I capitoli sono stati realizzati principalmente da Job/Yobu, autrice della serie cartacea di Joker no Kuni, ma ci sono anche capitoli di altre autrici molto attive nell'universo Quinrose (tra cui la Mamenosuke, conosciuta da noi attraverso alcuni volumi unici editi e che attualmente cura anche la grafica dei giochi).
