Alphabet Alley
Is alphabetizing right up your alley? In Alphabet Alley, test your knowledge of alphabetical

trick is that the letters must be in the correct alphabetical order. Use the mouse, the
cursor pad or arrow keys to play. Moves can be horizontal or vertical. Press Help to
show the next right move.
