A game for anyone who enjoys a fast-paced word puzzle! Alphen presents you with several words of equal length, one above the other. The only problem is that the letters have been mixed up: the letters are all in their proper positions from left to right, but most of them are in the wrong rows! Your only clue for unscrambling the words is that you are told the category each one belongs to. The first word might be the name of a flower, the second a musical instrument, and so on. Figuring out one word narrows the choice of letters available for those remaining, so each successive word gets easier to solve. But it's a race against time. Alphen starts out easy then gets harder as the time limit goes down in later rounds. The easiest level is suitable for children of about 8-10 years; the hardest will challenge diehard word puzzle fans.

EULA
The Alphen User License The following is an agreement between us (AHA! Software Inc.), the author and publisher of Alphen, and you, its user. If you are not willing to abide by the terms of this agreement, you must not install the program, and must remove from your computer any files extracted from the distribution archive. You may use the evaluation version of Alphen as long as you choose. There are no time limits. However, not all features of the game are available in the evaluation version. Upon registration you will receive a code that can be used to convert the evaluation version of Alphen to the full registered version, with all parts of the game permanently enabled. The evaluation version of Alphen prominently announces itself as such each time the program is run. Until you have purchased a registration code for Alphen, the evaluation version is the only version you may legally possess. You are allowed and encouraged to give the evaluation version of Alphen to other individuals, provided that you give them the entire contents of the archive you downloaded (or otherwise obtained), with no files removed, added or modified. You may repackage the archive onto floppy disks as long as the contents remain intact as just stipulated. You are also allowed and encouraged to upload the original archive, exactly in the form you yourself obtained it, to a bulletin board service or other software library. You are also allowed and encouraged to publish the original archive, exactly in the form you yourself obtained it, as part of a software collection on CD-ROM, DVD-ROM or the like, provided that no individual disc in the collection contains more than three games by AHA! Software Inc., unless by explicit permission of same; and provided also that the documentation accompanying the collection clearly and prominently states that the software is for evaluation only, and that a registration fee is required in order to unlock its full capabilities. Notice of inclusion in CD-ROM and similar collections, by email or in writing, is requested but not required. You are NOT allowed to distribute any individual file or files from within the archive, or from the installed program, whether or not you have registered your copy. If you have registered the game, you must take reasonable precautions to prevent your registration code being used to operate a registered copy on more than one machine at one time. Alphen is provided "as-is". No warranties of any kind, express or implied, are made as to it or any medium it may be on. AHA! Software Inc. will provide no remedy for indirect, consequential, punitive or incidental damages arising from it, including such from negligence, strict liability, or breach of warranty or contract, even after notice of the possibility of such damages.
