The Snoogles game is very similar to Wonderland.
I don't think it has a level-editor though.
Have you tried this demo?

I couldn't play the game because I got a MAV.

The Snoogles is very much like Wonderland. Infact, to much so.
It is much more simple than the current state of RTW however.
I would usually say that it takes its inspirations from the games that Wonderland does, but the Snoogles has many features unique to Wonderland, like Kabooms and switching characters.
Though it is a independently deveolped game, what do you expect?

I downloaded the game but the when I want to start setup, I get a window "bad setup files, please ask for a new download' or something like it.
So we can't download that demo at all.

Eek. If imitation = flattery, then I should be very flattered. This is such a close copy (both in terms of look and feel, and in terms of puzzle elements and even puzzle designs) that it borders on copyright infringement.
I've e-mailed the folks at their website. It still looks like it could be a fun game (with a bit more tweaking), so perhaps some synergy (pun intented) is possible.
Certainly for now, though, I would discourage people from purchasing this game.

I sent a PM to MS about our installation problem.

I'm partial to RTW, I didn't like this copycat version. Definitely wouldn't buy it.

Ouch. Even the level looks a little familiar (can't say which one it is though)
Rest in peace, Kym. I hardly knew ya.
Rest in peace, Marinus. A bright star, you were ahead of me on my own tracks of thought. I miss you.
