Steve,

Apple's first Lisa game was most likely the MAZE program written by Steve Capps, the author of the ALICE game. I recall reading a ST. MAC maqgazine article about MAZE which talked about its origins on the Lisa. I believe ALICE came after MAZE.

You should try to contact Steve Capps directly and see if he has the Lisa version. If he does, you may not be able to run it since it most likely was written for the LISA MONITOR environment which is super rare. This environment was Apple's internal development environment for the Lisa predating the LISA WORKSHOP environment. The other Lisa environment from Apple was the LISA OPERATING SYSTEM which was used by the LISA OFFICE SYSTEM.
