Description

Scarce and desirable first edition example of "Through the Looking Glass" by Steve Capps, remembered as one of the earliest video games on the Mac platform. The floppy disk is contained in its original box, resembling an antique book. In very good to fine condition, with scattered foxing to the covers and dried adhesive to the inner spine.

Originally developed for the Apple Lisa under the name "Alice," the player takes the title role from Lewis Carroll's 1865 novel Alice in Wonderland, opposed by the computer playing a complete set of chess players. Alice moves about the board in realtime and attempts to capture the computer's pieces, while at the same time avoiding the computer's attempts to capture her.
