So very stubbly.
This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion.
Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?
Notes: Plenty of cut content to examine, including NPCs, models, and dialogue.

This is not your great-great-grandfather's Alice.

UI

Demon Dice

A strange UI piece which has something to do with the Demon Dice (The filename is demondice), perhaps the holes were filled up for each dice the player found, since, when the player finds another dice, they get 1 extra dice up to 3 dice total.

Voicelines

Alice Liddell

Alice has some unused voicelines which mostly consist of different takes of used voicelines.

The used variant of this voiceline replaces "girl" with "Person".

I shouldn't think so. I'm a girl, and just now I wish to become very small. About this big.

This voiceline was probably another take of the used "I'm not on holiday." voiceline.

I'm no bloody tourist!

Duchess

The Duchess has one unused voiceline, the purpose of this voiceline is unkown.

Speaking of axes, chop of her head.

Queen of Hearts

While this dialogue is being said by the Queen of Hearts, it is said in a deep, demonic voice, which is a separate file. This might was used for a test.

If you destroy me, you destroy yourself! Leave now and some hollow part of you may survive. Stay, and I will break you down; you will lose yourself forever.

The Queen of Heart also has multiple takes of the iconic line "Off with her head", while she does say this line, she says it only once, leaving these variants unused. These were probably leftovers of multiple takes or were used for testing.

Strangely enough qnr001d was used in the original soundtrack uploaded to youtube. (Heard at 01:04:06.)

There is an unused statue of the Carpenter and the Walrus, although the do not appear in this game, they would appear in the sequel.

Mac OS Icons

8-Bit Alice

In Mac OS 8.1 and earlier, which don't support 32-bit "icns" icons, the game sports an alternative 8-bit "icl8". It's cropped from the same source art but is tinted darker, zoomed slightly further in, and has a black background.

The game's minimum requirements include OS 8.6, so hardly anyone would have seen this icon without peeking at the resource fork.

Elite Force Leftovers

These document icons, and the ElFb/ElFt file types they respectively stand for, were left in from Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force.

The ElFt type and icon weren't used by that game, either.
