    How to Play UNO
    UNO is a card game based on the public domain card game Crazy Eights. It is a game that has lived on shelves and in the nostalgic memories for decades and decades. Many people who play UNO have often changed, adapted or house ruled the game over time.
    In this video we examine some of the widely overlooked rules to this game and we explore how this game was meant to be played. Some of these rules you may be familiar with and others you may not even know. This video aims to shed some light over the official rules for the original intention of the game.
    The aim in a game of UNO is for players to empty their entire hand of cards throughout each round of gameplay. The winner of each round then gains points equal to the face up value of the cards remaining in their opponent's hands. The first player over several rounds to accumulate 500 points wins the game.
    The Board Game Sanctuary is a family friendly board game channel that aims to introduce the board gaming hobby to new and seasoned players in a light, fun and humourous way.

    No one I know that's played Uno actually likes using the official rules. Even if I explain them and they agree to try, they'll feel weird about it and we'd never finish a game because "that's how they've always played". And then one wonders why instruction manuals even exist in the first place.

      you know what,
      here are some rules my friends apply everytime we play uno:
      -*you are allowed to stack up +2 cards and the next player can discard a reverse card and the player who played the +2 card the most recently must draw* *(number of +2 cards discarded multiplied by 2)* *cards.*
      -*when someone plays a 7 card, all other players have to put their hand on the table. the last one to do it draws 2 cards.*
      -*when a player plays a 0 card, all players must stay quiet until the color is changed. whoever speaks draw a number of cards as told by other players.*

    For fifteen years, I only played Uno with my family. One day a school a group of my friends were playing I joined in, I was prepared for this moment. I play well and get down to my last two cards, a wild and a blue one. I play the blue and my friend shouts “Uno!” I looked at him as he started laughing and then he told me to draw seven cards. I asked why, and he told me I didn’t say uno. I just stared at him. He said you didn’t say uno when you were down to one card. I got angry because I couldn’t understand why my buddy since kindergarten would make up a rule just to keep me from winning. Apparently, in fifteen years of playing Uno, no one in my family ever knew that shouting “Uno” when you had your last card was even a rule

  • @TravJam317
    @TravJam317 5 років тому +2

    I know some people have their own rules that they like to use. Other than the official scoring method, the way that my family likes to play is called a Battle Royale. The winning hand for the round gets zero points for that round. The remaining hands get the point value of their own cards only (so if you were stuck with a skip and a 2, you get 22 points). Rounds continue and players get eliminated when they reach 300 (we sometimes play with higher thresholds, like 500 or whatnot, depending on how long we want this thing to last). Winner is the last person remaining under 300 points.
    Battle Royale usually works better with bigger groups. And we usually up the threshold when playing Uno Attack, because it's not uncommon to be left with 300+ pt hands.

    With uno jackpot or other variations of uno, if a player plays a unique action card as their final card. The effect is null since the player is now out of cards and the round is over. The only action cards are ones with an immediate effect on another player such as a pick up 2 or wild draw four, nothing else is supposed to happen and the person that is out cannot be forced to pick up cards after they have already played their last card.

      Alternatively, if you do have a card in your hand that can be played, but you rather save it for later, you *may* instead draw 1 card from the draw deck. If that card that you drew can be played, you *may* do so.

    Ace is drow 4 and it stacks
    #8 and J are used to change the suit.
    #7 can be used to play all cards of similar suit in one go.
    You have to call crazy when u have 1 card left before someone calls crazy or else you drow 5 cards

    if you have (for example) 3 cards in your hand that has the same numbers but just in different colors, you can play all those cards in whatever order you want. the color you last put in is the color though.

    We make our rules when playing with friends or family like if someone uses a +2 card the next player can use a reverse or skip of the same color to avoid it or throw another +2 card of the same color to up the draw. Its a lot of fun when everyone is skipping, reversing going up the total to that last player that doesn't have how to defend them self & have to take all those +2 cards. Same with the +4 cards. Other rule is anyone can throw all the same card in color & number in one turn to speed up the game.

    @waynejohnson9374 2 роки тому +3

    ALSO, with the points, can't you play elimination style if you want to play for longer? So when someone wins they get no points and everyone else's points go against them. So if you have 4 players, the first that has 500 points against them is the first one out and then you play with 3 players until the next one hits 500 and you play with 2 players to determine a winner until someone hits 500.

    Rule 3 is incorrect. You are allowed to bluff in Uno about your cards, unless bluffing is barred specifically at the start of the game. Even when you bar bluffing, you are allowed to bluff, except people can challenge your draw 4 and make you draw the 4 instead if you have something you can play. I know its a bit confusing, but it's always been that way.
    The point is, it would be impossible to moderate a game to bar bluffing, as not everybody is so well-versed in the rules. The "Challenging" rule is so people can potentially "get out of a sticky situation" or so it implies when you challenge and they were lying, kind of like being required to hold a poker face in poker.
    I am leaving out other aspects of the rule of course such as being allowed to fully view their hand when they challenge and if it fails you need to draw 2 additional cards, but that is irrelevant to the point.

    • @kohwenxu

    @ano1nymus1 5 років тому +3

    The way it's written in my game's rule book, at the end of the round the players with cards left in their hands gain minis points according to their leftover cards. After someone reaches -500 pts that player is the loser and the one with the least points wins. Also Draw 2 cards are -30pts, Wild is -40 and Draw 4 is -60. And Draw 2/4 cards stack.
    Maybe there are different rules in different countries/editions.

    Basically rules you ignore because they actively make the game less fun.

    Or by far the worst is non stacking +2's, the best part of the game is holding onto all of the +2 cards for as long as possible and then when you can't play anything some unlucky person (or someone who played theirs early) gets absolutely demolished, particularly hellish with +4's

There are certain things that intrigue me about the game play, some of which are “how a player feels” while playing? Meaning, do you feel happy when you play? Do you feel like it’s fun? Do you feel like it’s a “heavy” on the brain, or is it easy flowing?

  • @avetrey
    @avetrey 2 роки тому +2

    I host Uno tournaments and naw, our house rules override actual gameplay rules... We feel it brings about more competition and no one is safe from any other player.
    Our “Skips” & “Draw two” cards can be played and stacked towards the next player, where the player without a “Skip” or “Draw two” will receive the penalty of those cards. Although several “Skips” may have been stacked, the player only skips one turn but the “Draw two’s” accumulates and the unlucky player draws the amount of draw two cards previously stacked.
    “Reverse” cards remain as a change of direction card but can be stacked by the player playing them.
    “Wild” cards remain the same
    “Draw Four” cards are literally the wild cards. We stack our “Draw four” cards just like the “Draw two’s”, where the odd player out is penalized the number of previously stacked cards played but our twist is, is that “Draw four” cards can be played on ANY player in the game at any time. Basic rules still apply where you can’t place a “Draw four” on top of a “Draw two” if you don’t have a “Draw two” to play but if a player sitting two or more seats away from you has Uno and on your turn you wish to stop them in their tracks, you can select them to be the recipient of your “Draw four” card, just beware though, because they could have a “Draw four” as well, reverse it back on you (or any other player for that matter) to “Draw eight” and still go out as the winner, or possibly backfire and have it reversed again making them draw twelve total cards.
    We’ve found these rules to make for an entertaining night of cut throat, back stabbing Uno contenders 🤣🤣

    There's an old card game called Follow the Ace which uses a regular deck and is similar to Uno where you can stack 2s (draw 2s) and Jokers (draw 3 & wild). Maybe this is where the commonly played Uno variant comes from.
    In that game aces are wilds, jacks are reverse and 7s are skips. As mentioned earlier 2s are draw 2 and Jokers are draw 3 and wild and both are stackable but not with the other. You otherwise follow suit or number and either play or draw (can't pick up and play).
    Edit: oh, and when you're down to 1 card left you have to say "last card". If the next player plays without you saying it you have to draw a card (2?) as penalty.
