Play Streets and Alleys Solitaire Online

Streets and Alleys deals the entire deck face up in eight rows. Unlike Beleaguered Castle, its four Aces remain shuffled among the other cards, so you must free them before starting foundations. Four rows hold seven cards and four hold six. There is no stock and no free cell. The open layout makes every move inspectable: choose an exposed card, build a row down by rank, and find a path to the buried Aces.

1. Deal all 52 cards face up across eight tableau rows. Four rows have seven cards and four have six.
2. Look at the exposed card at the end of each row. Select one and place it on another exposed card exactly one rank higher. Suit and color do not matter in the rows.
3. When an Ace becomes exposed, select it and click the empty foundation for its suit. Add the Two through King of that suit in ascending order.
4. Move an exposed card into an empty row when you need temporary space. A cleared row accepts any card.
5. Keep releasing useful edge cards until the four foundations contain every card in the deck.

• Four rows start with seven cards; four start with six. Every card is face up.
• Only the exposed last card of a row moves. This version moves one card at a time.
• Rows build down by one rank regardless of suit or color; any exposed card may fill an empty row.
• Aces start in the rows. Foundations start empty and build by suit from Ace to King.
• There is no stock, waste, cell, or redeal.

• Find the Aces before making your first move. A row with an Ace near the edge often deserves early attention.
• Use an empty row as temporary storage, but keep it available if the next needed foundation card is buried.
• Build downward onto a card only when doing so exposes something useful or frees a row.
• Compare two legal destinations for the same card. Prefer one that exposes a low card of a suit whose foundation has started.
• A long row may hide both a useful Ace and the card needed to release it. Plan a few exposed-card moves in reverse.

• Beleaguered Castle: Beleaguered Castle starts with the Aces already in the foundations and deals six cards to each row.
• Eight Off: Eight Off adds cells and requires suited descending builds on the tableau.

• The whole deal is visible, including Aces that still need to be freed. Scan all eight row ends and plan which cards will become available next.
• Releasing an Ace gives an immediate goal: place it on its foundation, then look for the matching Two in the remaining rows.
• Empty rows support tactical rearrangements. Moving a card into one space can let you release a different row's buried foundation card.
• Mixed-suit builds offer several possible destinations. Choosing the right Nine for an Eight matters because the two Nines cover different cards.
• There is no stock cycle to memorize. The game asks you to manage row ends and spaces with the complete deck on display.

Streets and Alleys asks you to free its foundations before you can finish them. Scan the open rows for buried Aces, create spaces when possible, and use each exposed card to open a useful new edge.
