UNO
UNO is one of the world's most popular family card games, with rules easy enough for kids, but challenges and excitement enough for all ages.
Each player is dealt 7 cards with the remaining ones placed face down to form a "draw" pile. The top card of the draw pile is turned over to begin a "discard" pile. The first player has to match the card in the discard pile either by number, color or word. For example, if the card is a red 7, player must throw down a red card or any color 7. Or the player can throw down a Wild Card. If the player doesn't have anything to match, he must pick a card from the draw pile. If he can play what is drawn, great. Otherwise play moves to the next person. When you have one card left, you must yell "UNO" (meaning one). Failure to do this results in you having to pick two cards from the draw pile. That is, of course if you get caught by the other players. Once a player has no cards left, the hand is over. Points are scored and you start over again.
Number Of Players: 2 to 10
Recommended Ages: 7 and up

UNO (Spanish, Italian "one" and Dutch "pesten") is a card game played with a specially printed deck (see Mau Mau for an almost identical game played with normal playing cards). The game was originally developed in 1971 by Merle Robbins. It is now a Mattel product. The game's general principles put it into the Crazy Eights family of card games. Despite being developed in America, UNO is officially pronounced exactly the same way as the Italian word for "one", uno.

Uno is a special deck of cards. You can buy this deck almost anywhere they sell games. The box will say Uno on it and it should be a red box. The instructions on how to play are inside the box. Very fun family kind of game. Enjoy!
