While the Divine Son of God is the ultimate scapegoat, the devil is the ultimate false accuser. He first enviously implicitly accused God of being unworthy of His position in presuming that he, a beautiful, gifted (Ezekiel 28:11–15, typified as the king of Tyrus) created being, would be as God, in the first "occupy movement." (Isaiah 14:13,14)
Next, being cast down for his selfish, utterly unwarranted self-exaltation he next showed his true colors by essentially telling Eve that she was being treated unjustly by God due to the sole restricted placed upon Adam and Eve, and that it was her right to be as God (essentially inculcating the victim-entitlement ethos), who needed to "share the wealth." And rather than suffering for disobedience, the devil (“a liar, and the father of it:” John 8:44) further lied by teaching that this power was to be justly obtained by disobedience to God.
But instead this resulted in the devil obtaining power while she and her (more accountable) husband - who gave into her - suffered, as did all man was made steward over.
Likewise, classic Communists as proxy servants of the devil, as well as self-assumed liberal elites, also seduce souls with the victim-entitlement mentality end up being the only ones living in luxury as a result of seducing masses to put them in power with their lies.
All of which God allows, with limits (else the whole world would be worse than North Korea) in allowing man to have an alternative to choose btwn - light or darkness, ultimately sin or Him.
I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: (Deuteronomy 30:19)
For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. (Acts 2:39)
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; (Acts 3:19)

This may be a bit out there, and presuming much(which much commentary about the Bible does) But I think these may be some key references as to why satan wanted Eve to eat of the forbidden fruit.
Its not just that satan is a girl, and God is dad. The only way satan could get back at dad was to ensure that his creation could not flourish. Therefore why the restriction on the one fruit of twelve in the garden after the other eleven had already been eaten? Why were the rest of the trees removed from Adam and Eve?
Maybe, and this is a BIG maybe, the one fruit is a catalyst that once was initialized must be followed up by diligent regard for the order and manner in which the rest of the fruits are to follow.
If so, maybe we as a planet are being guided on eventually how to reach the stars, irregardless if there are other beings out there.
Maybe we are just in first grade.
Adam did not give in to Eve. He acted on his own prerogative; he was not tempted as Eve was.
