     Alter Ego was produced and marketed by Activision. It came in
Female (red box) and Male (black box) versions. I'll check a box for the
rest .....

     Okay; according to the blurb on the box, AE was "conceived and
created" by Peter Favaro. Kerry Shetline and William Kubeck did the
Apple2/PC programming.

     AE was a clever idea.  After one or two sessions, I wonder if
anyone contined to play the game 'straight'. It was too much fun to take
gross risks with your character and see what happened when 'the roof
caved in'.
