![]() ![]() Much rich conversation and sharing of life and our lives always happens during the game. My parents were avid Pinochle players and to this day I’ll grab any chance I can to play it with them! While the game takes place, it’s more than just a game. I grew up playing games and still love playing with kids and adults alike, and want to pass on that tradition to my children! I remember as a young girl, every time we visited my grandparents across town someone would pull out the Trouble game because we knew my Grandpa would always say YES to playing it with us! It built great memories and made for healthy family time. Learns about navigating life situations. ![]() Builds a respect for healthy competition, and.This is a wonderful chance to be supremely petty. You can play the boom and assign those 20 cards to anyone. So say there has been a run of +4s and by the time it gets to you, it’s +20. It let’s you assign a whole stack of cards-to-be-drawn, to whomever you want. +4 on all mistakes, +7 on a missed “Uno!” Draw four for any misplay, draw seven if you missed calling “Uno!” and someone else beats you to it.If you have a color card and can play, you have to, but if you have power cards, you can hold them back. This is instead of Uno’s stated ruled of “draw one card and miss your turn.” We like it because you can end up drawing a ton of cards. This can be potent in a deck with lots of +2s, because if you have a bunch in your hand (withholding power cards is a huge strategy) you can keep playing them on top of each other until the person behind you has the sense to draw. You can’t just lay down three cards at once. One caveat here: You have to reach back to your hand to play cards. Meaning: If I play a Blue 2, I can also lay down a Red 2, a Yellow 2, etc. You can play different colored cards with the same number or symbol if it’s your turn and the person after you hasn’t gone.So you can play a +4 out of turn on someone else’s +4, thereby sticking the person after you with eight cards (unless they have a +4, etc.). This is why I overload my deck with Blue 2s. In effect, this skips other players, because the order continues after your play. That means you can play your Blue 2 on someone else’s Blue 2 even when it’s not your turn. You can play out of turn on any exact match.This is how Bazemore ended up drawing 50. With extra +2s and +4s in the deck, this can go on for ages. If I play a +4 and the next person plays a +4 and the third person plays a +4 then the fourth person has to draw twelve. Meaning that if I play a +2 and the next person plays a +2, the third person has to draw 4. Also, we have a card with a bomb on it, seen above. SECOND: Using the “draw your own rule” wilds, make a + card as big as you think is reasonable (+20?). Also, using any spare cards lying around, overload your deck with a few matching non-face cards (like TONS of Blue 2s, for instance). There’s a lot more strategy here.įIRST: Pirating a second deck, add four Skips, four Reverse cards, four +2s, four +4s, and four Wilds to the main deck. These rules come from one simple idea: games are most fun when it’s a 75-25 split between skill and luck. Now, what you’ve been waiting for without ever realizing it… Uproxx THE AUTHOR’S UNO “HOUSE RULES” It’s an old fashioned game that saw the direction culture was heading and has kept up - making it a fascinating case study and a hell of a lot of fun. Because of its popularity on social media, iconic design, and the endless platforms it’s available on, Uno seems to be winning that war. In the fight over game night, the game that conquers is the game that comes to mind quickly. They even make oversized, undersized, and waterproof cards. On January 4th, a new version of the game was released for PCs which allows you to import your house rules. IF ?YOU ?SAY ?YOU ?WANT ?TO ?PLAY ?UNO ?BUT? GET ?MAD ?WHEN ?I'M WINNING ?AND ?QUIT ?
