Object
The first player to win three hands wins the game.
Set Up
- Choose a dealer.
- Shuffle the deck.
- Each player is dealt 7 cards.
- Remaining cards become the Draw pile.
- Turn over the top card of the DRAW pile to begin a DISCARD pile.
Let's Play
Player to the left of the dealer plays first. Play passes to the left.
Match the top card on the DISCARD pile either by number, colour or symbol.
No match? Pick a card from the DRAW pile. If you can play the card, play it. If you can't, play moves to the next player.
Before playing your next to last card, you must say "UNO." If you don't say "UNO" and you get caught before the next player begins their turn, take TWO more cards from the DRAW pile. If you don't get caught, you don't have to draw.
Once a player plays their last card, the hand is over.
Special Cards
- Draw 2 Card – Causes the next person to draw 2 cards and forfeit his/her turn. Can only be played on a matching colour or on another Draw 2 card.
- Reverse Card – Reverses direction of play. Can only be played on a matching colour or on another Reverse card.
- Skip Card – Causes the next person in the line of play to be "skipped." Can only be played on a matching colour or on another Skip card.
- Wild Card – Changes the colour being played to the colour of the players' choice. Can be played even if you have another playable card in hand.
- Wild Draw 4 Card – This card allows you to call the next colour played and requires the next player to pick 4 cards from the DRAW pile and forfeit his/her turn.
- Wild Downpour Card – If a Wild Downpour One or a Wild Downpour Two card is played, all other players must either draw one or two cards depending on which Wild Downpour card is played. The player of the card may also call a new colour and play continues in the current direction.
This deck is compatible with the original UNO instructions.
Care of the Cards
Rinse, clean and dry all cards thoroughly before storing. Do not expose to intense heat or direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time, as cards may discolour.
