Description
Back Alley or Back Alley Bridge is a card game that originated from the military, probably sometime during World War II.
The game is similar to bridge and spades. The goal of the game is to win tricks, by which you score points. The idea is to guess the number of tricks you think you'll make, the more accurate you are without guessing too much, the more points you make. The game starts with one card in doubles play and two cards in singles play, progressively going up one card each round up to 13 cards - then from 13 back down to the number of cards the game started with. The idea is to get the most points by the end of the game. For more detailed rules, download the app or visit my website at the support url.
This game has two version, a doubles version with four players with two teams of two and a singles version with three players.
At the end of the deal you can save the game.

Ratings and Reviews
Too slow
I would love this app if it wasnt so blame slow!!! There is no reason the deal has to take more than a few seconds. But it pokes along ridiculously. Please, please speed it up. Also i can barely see the tine emblems on the cards. A better layout is needed.
Love this game!
I grew up playing it so it’s very cool to see it in app form now. I agree with some other comments, there’s some room improvement in the animation. I wish the card symbols were bigger, it’s hard to tell the difference between clubs and spades. Very fun nonetheless!
Addictive game
I enjoy card games with strategy. I like how you can play with someone you know in a different household.
