A strategic trick-taking card game inspired by bridge
Back Alley, also known as Back Alley Bridge, is a military-originated card game that likely emerged during World War II.
Similar to bridge and spades, this game challenges players to win tricks and score points. The key strategy involves accurately predicting how many tricks you'll take each round - score more by making precise bids without overestimating. Gameplay progresses through rounds starting with 1 card (doubles) or 2 cards (singles), incrementally increasing to 13 cards before decreasing back down. Victory goes to the player with the highest cumulative score. For complete rules, download our app or visit the support website.
Available in two formats: a four-player doubles version with two-person teams and a three-player singles variation.
