Origin[edit]

This game is a copy from Spanish card game "chúpate dos" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Esteban 2015 Fm (talkcontribs) 01:34, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know about that, but I do know that when I was a kid my then brother in law brought a version of Crazy Eights back from the military that was a virtual copy of Uno. eights were wild, dueces were draw two, I forgot what card could reverse the rotation of play.....etc.

That would have been in the early 70's or late 60's.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.43.44.9 (talk) 20:02, 16 February 2022 (UTC)[reply] 

Wild variant[edit]

The "cannot contain current color when playing wild draw four" seems to be part of the official rules. Why is it listed as a variant? Eurleif 02:40, Jan 12, 2004 (UTC)

Nobody addressed the original comment. I don't think that one can say the current color when playing any wild card, but I don't know what the official rules are regarding this. 65.214.67.173 (talk) 04:41, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The official rule is that if you can follow color you aren't supposed to play a wild draw 4. Such plays may be challenged. If you challenge correctly the card player draws 4. If the player is challenged, and their wild draw 4 play was legal, the challenger draws two extra cards in addition to the 4. Note that the stacking house rule is an exception. Since your wild draw 4 matches the other players wild draw 4, it can't be challenged, and if played before the first one is challenged, the first one can't be challenged anymore, because there's been another play. There is no rule against calling the current color with a wild card. in fact, if you know that a player close to winning doesn't have the current color (because they had to draw earlier) it may be a good idea to do this.2603:3006:1081:1C00:ECD0:BC68:AA35:7A96 (talk) 20:26, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It would be nice to include the old card design in the table. [User:PrometheusX303|PrometheusX303] 21:15, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

United Kingdom / "Naught"[edit]

Does the UK have UNO? --e. 01:22, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

What's a 'naught' card? Is that the zero card? GenkoKitsu 14:27, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

well to to kill two birds with one stone, yes the UK has uno... lol australia and NZ get te UK versions lol (i know coz on my old (1992 or something) UNO card pack i have, they have UK telephone numbers and addresses. and Naught is the original name for zero, zero is really just a borrowing from italian word via french, and naught is an old english word for nothng, but used for the number zero/ 0 Australian Jezza 08:04, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rules[edit]

If, for example a blue 4 is played and the next player has a red, yellow, and green 4, they may play all of them, but they may only play 4s.

This seems inconsistent with the rules as described. As far as I can tell, you can play any other blue card or a normal Wild card (if you have any) Nil Einne 13:58, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the line. It conflicted with the rules above it. PrometheusX303 17:27, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think the deck contents would be much better illustrated as a table rather than long paragraphs of text 59.154.179.18 (talk) 22:38, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This variant is played in Kazakhstan, but I have yet to see any justification for its being allowed.

Near the beginning of the RULES (4th para, I believe) it states, "The game of a person can only be ended by cards 0 to 9." But later, listed as a Common Problem, it says, "When a person throws a draw four at the end of the game (his last card) and the next player throws a draw four on it, the first person does not pick any card his game is over." Now, I've never heard that games must end with a number card, but if it's accurate, the person CAN'T throw a Draw 4 at the end of the game and therefore, this can't be a common problem.

However, if the game is allowed to end with any card and a person throws a Draw 4 to end the game, the game STOPS because the rules also say, "When a player has gone out, the other players count the values of the cards in their hands . . . " That may only be interpereted as, "If a player's last card is a Draw 4, when that card touches the other played cards, all play ceases and the game is over. The next player is neither required to draw 4 cards nor allowed to play his Draw 4.

One last thing. At the very end of the RULES is the statement, "If a 'Skip' card is out on play, the card is followed." What is this supposed to mean? Can anyone explain this a little better? --TR Amnesia — Preceding unsigned comment added by TR Amnesia (talkcontribs) 05:28, 18 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Draw 2[edit]

I believe there's also a variant where if one person plays a draw 2, the person after them can play a draw 2 and it contines until somebody doesn't have a draw 2 to play.

I've played where a pickup card can be followed by another pickup card, with the pickup becoming cumulative. So for instance, Alice plays blue 2+, Bob plays red 2+, Charlie plays blue 2+, and Daisy, not having any 2+es, has to pick up six. We couldn't mix 2+ and 4+ cards though. Effect on strategy is everyone hoards pickup cards if possible, to use defensively.

I've also played where if you can't play, you must KEEP PICKING UP until you can! Leading to an unfortunate player having to pick up many cards on occasion. 131.111.245.195 (talk) 22:45, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A few buddies and I all play a similar method of this stacking draw cards; we ad another option though, not only can you stack either a draw 2 or a wild draw 4 without the option of challenge, but we can also play the appropriate color skip or reverse. For instance, if a skip is played on a draw card, that card has to be the correct color and skips that player's draw to the next player. If a reverse is played on a draw card, that card, once again must be the correct color, and reverses the draw to the previous player. We find that this ads another defensive option for play. It makes the games much more interesting. One more rule we always play by is: if a person goes out by laying a draw card, the game does not end untill a person draws those cards. All rules above still apply, so the potential exists for the person who goes out with a draw card to end up having to draw, meaning that the game continues. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.58.234.21 (talk) 00:46, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Two Player UNO[edit]

My pack states that it is for 2 to ten players. The page indicates that it's for 3 or more. I will change it unless someone can show a reason why it should not be 2 or more. --Walter Görlitz 05:54, 10 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is for 2 or more. The only difference is that Reverse cards act as Skip cards during 2-player matches, and (obviously) after a Draw 2/4 card play resumes with the player who just played that card. Satan's Rubber Duck 23:29, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thus the only real difference is in the effect of the Reverse cards? Jdthood (talk) 20:26, 5 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

'Despite being developed in America, Uno is officially pronounced exactly the same way as the Italian and Spanish word for "one", uno.'

Uno Spin[edit]

if a player must spin the wheel and lands on discard all but 2 cards but only has 1 card what is the rule i would assume since they have only 1 and are instructed to keep at least 2 they must keep at least that card any comments —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.253.151.188 (talk) 02:16, 27 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Single game record?[edit]

It's not entirely clear what the "single game record" is from reading this article. My instinct says it's a record for the longest recorded game, but the writing of the section is not acceptable. The lack of sources is also a troubling concern. Roehl Sybing 17:48, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lose a turn?[edit]

With the inclusion of blank cards in the deck, there is now an ability to make your own cards. Some friends and I have made ones like 'draw 8' 'pick a person to draw 4' 'Get me a drink and draw one' and 'pick a person to loose a turn and draw one'. This last card has drawn some debate over interpretation. Anyone have any thoughts? The situation. It is a 3 handed game going to the left. Say a player in a chair (seat 1) laid the 'pick a person to loose a turn and draw one' and pick the player to his right (seat 3). Now if the player in seat 2 lays a draw two card, should this draw two bypass player 3 since they have lost a turn and player 1 has to draw? Or, should player 2 draw since their 'turn' wasn't happening when the draw 2 was laid?

I contend that the latter interpretation applies. I believe that this game consists of rounds where one player may play or draw and everyone else must sit out. In this case, I think that the draw two was played during player 1's turn and that all consequences of play on this round must be dealt before the next player's turn begins. In this case that would mean that during player 2's turn he would play the draw 2 and the next player would draw. This would complete action on player 1's round and then player two's turn would begin which they would then loose, moving back to player 1. Does this sound right? Any arguments for the other interpretation?

Thanks!

Common Variants[edit]

The "common variants" section is essentially all unattributed, unverified trivia. Although the title makes the claim that the variants are common, there is no assertion of this within the section, and Internet searches fail to come up with any good sources to back up the claim (mainly UNO fan web sites, etc.). So although it looks like a useful collection of information for the UNO player, I don't think it's appropriate for Wikipedia; see WP:NOT and WP:ATTRIBUTE. I decided to be bold here and removed it. --Andrew Robertson 06:33, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

House rule being mistaken for a real rule?[edit]

I saw this put into the article recently:

A player can place down more than one card if it is the same number/powercard at once. A draw 4 can be played after a draw 4 card is played.

I don't remember this being in the official rules. It sounds like a house rule. Can anyone confirm/deny this, or is this yet more "filth" that comes from the various morons browsing the internet?Manny Cav 00:15, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I an confirm that this is a house rule, and a poor one at that (though it can be interesting as a going-out strategy). The official rules of Uno (that come with the pack) do not give any circumstances when you may play more than one card on the same turn. Sabin4232 (talk) 07:19, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am adding a question - I am not the orginal author of this chat - what is meant by "to play a card"? It seems to be the basic action in the game but is not defined. Can I assume it means to take that card and whatever allows it to be played and lay it out on the table and thus remove it from your hand, bringing you that many cards closer to winning?

Duke of Cambridge reference[edit]

Cleanup[edit]

This article needs serious cleanup a major overhaul. Excessive detail and playing tips must me removed, MOS inconsistencies must be corrected, some things don't make sense (from infobox: "Random chance=easy"?), and the ridiculously excessive lists of all editions of the game should probably be scrapped as well, seeing as though they serve no encyclopedic purpose, even if technically verifiable (the video game list may fall into this category as well). I may go ahead and make some of these major changes myself. Chris the Paleontologist (talkcontribs) 21:35, 17 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • remove may be could leave a short paragraph. The German wikipedia tends to be quite good on games and they have no such section. The article as it stands needs serious work. The main issue, is that wikipedia doesn't have the game from which Uno is lifted. Which I knew by the name take two. I did start on the card games a while back but I suspect this was another David Parlett omission, its not in Hubert Phillips by a recognizable name. However, one thing I found is that it is practically impossible to source dice and card games, they exist purely as an oral tradition. But the variants don't seem notable. What needs to be removed is the 60 foot notes.Tetron76 (talk) 23:26, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reverse card with 2 players[edit]

When there are only 2 players, the same player that had played the reverse card can play another card (possibly also a reverse card). GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 23:22, 13 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Rules for when you can't play a card[edit]

There seems to be different ways of playing the game but there might not be a clear set way of playing. Here's my question: when you can't play a card, do you draw one and can't play it, does it becomes the next person's turn? Or do you have to keep drawing until you can play a card? I'm not sure what is currently written on the article is correct. To complicate matters, [4] lists both rules as being acceptable. What is the correct method? Is what this article has correct? 65.214.67.173 (talk) 04:41, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

CHANGE the Uno Callout section under Penalties:

(Before)- "If a player does not call "Uno" after laying down their next-to-last card and is caught before the next player in sequence takes a turn (i.e., plays a card from their hand, draws from the deck, or touches the discard pile), they must draw two cards as a penalty. If the player is not caught in time (subject to interpretation) or remembers to call "Uno" before being caught, they suffer no penalty. If a player falsely calls "Uno" while having multiple cards in their hand, they must draw two cards."

(After)- If a player does not call "Uno" before their second-to-last card touches the DISCARD pile and is caught before the next player in sequence Begins a turn, they must draw a two card penalty from the DRAW pile. If a player is not caught before the Beginning of the next turn in sequence, or remembers to call "Uno" before being caught, no penalty is applied. “Beginning a turn” is defined as either taking a card from the DRAW pile or drawing a card from your hand to play. [1]

ADD to the "Penalties" section:

  • Players who make card-play suggestions to the other players must draw 2 cards from the DRAW pile.
  • If a player plays a wrong card and it is noticed by any of the other players, he/she must take the card back

and take 2 extra cards from the DRAW pile. Play continues with the next person in turn. [2] MacMinty (talk) 00:58, 10 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The only part I actually didn't write in my own words was: "Players who make card-play suggestions to the other players must draw 2 cards from the DRAW pile." and "If a player plays a wrong card and it is noticed by any of the other players, he/she must take the card back and take 2 extra cards from the DRAW pile. Play continues with the next person in turn" The rest, I wrote using a combined wording of the previous Wikipedia entry, my own words, and the rule book's words, so that part should be goo to go. Also, since I made the entry, I asked the Uno corporation themselves, and they have confirmed that even though the above two rulings were printed in older rule books, they are, in fact, no longer valid rules in official games, so those will have to be chalked off anyway.

Two decks of regular playing cards[edit]

It would be good to mention in the article (or did I miss it already there?) that UNO could be played with two decks (preferably identical backs) of standard playing cards, including two Jokers from each deck, with the small, nondestructive modification that each Joker is marked as a particular "suit", and they are used for the "zero cards", and other cards serve (for example) as:

  • Kings: Draw 2
  • Red Queens: Wild
  • Black Queens: Wild Draw 4
  • Jacks: Skip
  • 10s: Reverse

That's certainly good to mention, regarding a similar game, but it might still be good to mention that the exact game of UNO can be played with two decks as I described above. As an aside, the articles for "Phase 10" and "Rummikub" already make the same point about those games, so this article could "follow suit", so to speak.

Thanks! (As another aside, as a partial mnemonic for the "royalty" combination I mentioned, which as I implied, is just one possible combination, I associated Queens with "Wild", and black Queens particularly with the "dangerous" "Draw 4" cards, as a parallel to "Hearts", where the Queen of spades is a likewise "dangerous" card; and I associated the 'youthful' Jacks with the youthful activity of "Skipping".....but this is all just digressing...) 2601:545:8201:6290:B9E5:81E7:1CC1:D7DD (talk) 12:13, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Add Olympic rules:

Olympic Rules:

The main difference is the use of 2 cards penalties for any mistake during the game. Otherwise the Olympic rules are a mix a different version of the official rules. It uses the interception rule and let you then put 2 cards exactly the same as you are using the interception rule on yourself. It uses the rule of 0 and 7 to trade your cards. 0 everyone trades with the following player, 7 with a player announced. See below the details:

The aim of the game is to have the lowest score when one of the player's score reaches 500 points. Each rounds of play, the first player to discard his cards stops the round and all other player score points for the card still help in their hands. Wild Card: you need to announce the color before releasing your hand from the card, otherwise you get a 2 cards penalty. It can't be intercepted. Wild Draw 4 Card: It can't be played if the player has any other playable card. If challenged the number of card in game is 6. The color must be announced before releasing your hand from the card, otherwise you get a 2 cards penalty. It can't be intercepted. Skip Card: They can be stack up to skip as many player as skip cards are stacked up. You can intercept this card hence stack them up. Reverse Card: This card can be intercepted hence stacked up. Draw 2 Card: the next player after drawing his/her card can play. and they can be intercepted so stacked up.

 You can suggest additions here on this talk page, citing reliable sources. To which other game is it similar? – Thjarkur (talk) 00:45, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The name comes from Spanish, not Italian[edit]

The official expansion is called "Dos", not "Due".

Merge from Uno H2O[edit]

The article for Uno H2O states that it is similar to Uno, with the "only difference is that the cards are transparent waterproof cards". In my opinion, that's not sufficient to warrant a separate article. Mindmatrix 15:28, 6 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge - There is seemingly no reason for Uno H2O to be its own article. It's not notable on its own. It's just a slight variation of the original game. snood1205(Say Hi! (talk)) 14:00, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge - I completely agree. Let's do this. Samuuurai (talk) 05:28, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge - I agree. We have too many really minor games and many interesting games missing. Slimy asparagus (talk) 23:26, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge - Agreed. We should get this done. It seems like this discussion has gotten a little bit stagnant, but Uno H2O doesn't seem like it should have it's own page. SyndicatedDrake (talk) 16:30, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per above. TheCartoonEditor (talk) (contribs) 12:08, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect Pretty sure this is WP:SNOWBALL, but I'll contend that it shouldn't even be merged into 'Uno' as there's nothing there that's relevant enough to have anything beyond what it already does in the section 'Special Uno games'. Notifying Shredder2, the article's creator, just as a courtesy. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 22:36, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge. I see no evidence of its notability and therefore should be merged. --The Tips of Apmh (talk) 14:00, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

50th anniversary[edit]

To celebrate 50th anniversary of UNO, Mattel will be introducing new decks in 2020., like the premium 50th Anniversary edition and the Iconic Series, which honors every decade of UNO with unique, throwback designs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.249.108.117 (talk) 07:05, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dos Article[edit]

Dos, a somewhat sequel to Uno, has a solid 2 or so sentences in the Uno article. Does anyone agree Dos may be significant enough for its' own article? Enough attention is payed to Uno variants, that Dos should seem like kind of a big deal. If responses to Chess openings can have their own articles, is this "two" much to ask?

What sources have you got on it? Slimy asparagus (talk) 20:39, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Brand name[edit]

Shouldn't the article title be italicized, as a registered trademarked brand name, e.g. Monopoly (game)? See similar proposal at Talk:Jenga#Brand name. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 07:10, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Since no one has commented for 10 months, I think it's safe to do so. – The Grid (talk) 02:52, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
