@Mattel
Players race to empty their hands and catch opposing players with cards left in theirs, which score points. In turns, players attempt to play a card by matching its color, number, or word to the topmost card on the discard pile. If unable to play, players draw a card from the draw pile, and if still unable to play, they pass their turn. Wild and special cards spice things up a bit.
UNO is a commercial version of Crazy Eights, a public domain card game played with a standard deck of playing cards.

I knew this rule but some people are just so stubborn!
It is a game that most of us just absorb by word of mouth instead of actually reading the rules, so people don't know about it,, and I think in some ways people don't like this rule because they just want to play the +4 so badly without restrictions.
@@LegendaryTactics Also the challenge requires you to show your deck to the next player, which is odd for a card game.
The challenge rule is a thing that groups at the start of the game usually talk about whether or not they would use it, the same way that they decide whether they would do 7s and 0s, draw till get color or draw one, stacking, jump in's, and or plus fours on plus two's.
Thankyou buddy 👍
I follow the instructions
I know this rule, but explaining it to my friends is hell, trust me.
Ha ha, I can imagine. It's not a complicated rule, but people get really turned around on it
it is worse than hell
Soo trueeee
@@triwolfgamarz8342 yup
Tell me about it
Searching for this after watching that hilarious RDCworld1 uno game. Now I understand why Mark keep drawing 4/6 cards when he challenged and get challenged.
Glad I was able to help clarify it!

I just recently learned how to play UNO and decided to read the rules I educate the other players who have been playing UNO for long time.
They were surprised to know the rules
The "don't bully" rule.
Yeah, basically.
draw 4 and lose a turn for nothing, why?
This rule was made to balance the power of the Wild Draw 4, no doubt.
And for the record, I always played Uno with that rule
Yes, I am sure that it was - I don't think the rule was in the original ruleset...
Nice!
Wow, that is a rule I never realized before! Thanks 😎👏🏻
Happy to help! Now you know!
Bro do you know can we use reverse card on 4+ wild card
@@shamsmuhebi2427 that only use in defense game mode
@@LiterallyHasNoIQ.8 thanks
Me and my friends made a rule for this card. The "Wild +4" in this rule is used to challenge any player regardless it's their turn (next player) or not (i.e the one with the Uno in the last turn)
1. Bring forth the "Wild +4" card and one card facing down. The challenge card.
2. Mention any player to challenge them to guess the color of the challenge card.
3. The player guess the color.
4. Reveal that challenge card so anyone can see.
5. If they guess it wrong, they draw 4 cards. If they guess it right, you draw 6 cards instead, and lost your turn.
6. Next player restart the game based on that challenge card color.
This way you don't have to reveal all the cards you have on your hand when someone decided to challenge you, and the "Wild +4" card will be a devastating double edge sword that make the game more exciting.
That's an interesting variant! I wonder if Uno is the card game with the most house rules ever designed?
I can see why people usually don't play this rule, since most of the time people save their +4s for last anyways, and it's usually not worth it to challenge it
I think Mattel or whoever found it too "gamey" and wanted to limit people abusing the +4
Tysm! I was struggling so much on learning this
You're welcome! Glad it helped!
The rule is : Only you can play wild draw 4 card when you have no other card to match [ color , number and action ]
Well, you can try to play it, but the victim can challenge it. If you don't have any of the color in play, the victim has to pick up 6 cards. But if you are caught with the current color in hand, you have to pick up the 4 cards, not the victim. It adds an element of bluffing to the +4 card.
Pretty sure the restriction only applies to color. So if the top card is a Red 5, and you have a +4, no red cards, and a Yellow 5, playing the +4 is legal in this case because you have no red, even though you could’ve played the Yellow 5.
@@slimecubeboingyou are correct that it's color only.
However, my rule is that you can only play a WD4 if you have no other play. In other words, if you can change the color without playing the WD4, you have to do it in that manner.
Example: red 6 is showing and you have, amongst other cards, a blue 6 and a WD4. Even if you have no reds in your hand, you must play the blue 6 instead of the WD4.
In your example, you'd have to play the yellow 5 instead of the WD4
Nope. It only checks color. If you have something that matches number or symbol, and they challenge you, they have to draw 6
@@keiyakins I get the official rule. I'm stating my house rule about WD4
53 years later and still no one knows how it works
That's what happens when the rules are taught from person to person, and no one actually reads the rules. It becomes a card game version of "Telephone"
Uno's mobile game should get you to write its tutorials!
Haha, thank you so much for saying so! I do my best!
I knew the rule before but was confused on how it worked. Apparently it's simple
It is! And it adds a nice bluffing element to the game!
I always play with house rules becauae its funner and more chaotic if you choose the right ones.
Ok so I'm arguing with someone I say that you can't play a draw 4 if you have a wild, that you have to play the wild first
They say you can play wild or draw 4 if you don't have a card that will play.
Which is right?
That's a good question. I would say that the wild doesn't need to be played because it isn't of a specific suit, and so doesn't qualify as challengeable. Just because it's playable doesn't mean it meets the requirements of the rule. For instance, if you have a card with the matching number as the card on the discard pile, it would be a similar thing
We actually never knew any rule of UNO we were playing it like GO FISH 😂😂😂
Yeah, that would be ... Different...
WHAT
Yes this is very true and if you play online this rule is enforced and I love it!!
I imagine it catches a lot of people unawares!
I usually use this rule mate but I add a bit of alteration..
Me and my friends added one rule
example…. if the next person to you is on UNO and the ongoing color on the deck is red say number 7
and you got 3 cards only say draw 4 one yellow and one red card say number 5
You can still play the draw 4 card and the challenger can’t challenge you because you left with only 2 cards after playing the draw 4.
Interesting! House rules are great for keeping a game fresh. Thanks for posting so other players can give your rule a go!
On a list of things I didn’t understand this is one of those like what?
I was hoping for a video explaining “Jump In” that was less than 20 minutes.
Ha ha, I had to look up "Jump In", as I hadn't run across it. The Dice Tower had done a pretty scathing review of it
Jump-in can be happened when someone that isn't before you puts a card that has the same color and the same symbol/number as one of the cards, you have three seconds to jump-in, aswell as you can jump in yourself if you have two similar cards (in everything), and the turn then goes to the players who is next to you. Any draw cards won't stack up when you jump-in. The block and reverse cards do effect to the next player after jumping-in, that's all.
It's not in all the rules...
(This happened like 20 years ago, in primary school)
So I read the rules of my copy of UNO. It had this rule described... So I managed to convince people sometimes to use the rule (it makes sense). But it was the 199x so everyone had a copy of UNO and I was making the pitch about this rule and there was another player convinced I didn't read the rules...me: 'no, you didn't read the rules'. So they gave me the rules and they were different from the ones I had at home... Not sure if they are different print versions or were some of the games knockoffs... Or was it the probelm with translations. (If you had a copy of uno that had German of English rules translated). But the situation was quite embarrassing.
I don't think this rule was in the original version of Uno. I don't have any data on it to show, but it seems like it was added at some point in the '90s, possibly because people were saving up their +4 cards to use just when another player was about to win, and there was nothing that a player could do to stop it.
I wish your explanation had included more information regarding the Draw 4 rule, because the official rules don't say whether the player who has been caught playing a Draw 4 illegally still gets to select the color. He has to draw 4 cards, but can he still name the color as if he had played the card legally?
In uno official mobile game it is possible.
Originally when you put it down you already assigned a color before they challenge you so I think you can. And only next to you can challenge you and you will only show your cards to the person who challenges you and not to the others
I HAVE A QUERY that If 2 ppl are playing UNO one will draw +2 card and the opponent have just 1 card left which is a power card of +4, he/she draw +4 upon +2 and the other opponent have again draw +4 then the opponent will have to pick all those 10 cards Or He/she will win because they don't have any card left? (I think that he/she will have to pick up all those cards otherwise there's no Value left of those power cards we drew).
I hope I am understanding your question correctly - remember that in UNO the +2 and +4 cards are not supposed to "stack" (add on to each other). This is a popular "house rule". So one player plays the +2, the opponent draws 2 cards and also misses their turn to play a card, and the first player goes again.
Today I played my very first round of Uno, and the only cards I got for myself were a total of 5 including 2 reverses, 2 blocks(skip) and a +2 Card, its no wonder I won💀
The bluffing or challenge is here of that
everyone knows the challenge rule but most people dont use it
In my experience, most people don't know of the rule, because almost no one reads the rules - they learn from other players, who have also not read the rules
i have a question, can i play/put card after i play DRAW 4 card after i declare color. example ; i play DRAW 4, next player must draw 4 from deck then skipped their turn then i declared RED, after i declared can i immediately put Red card in my hand.
I’m just gonna hit the button……
DECLINED
:)
Thnx this is exactly what i was looking for cuz i couldn't get in the app why i was getting back my +4😂
Glad we were able to help!
man it feels so great when u do this in uno flip
When you talked about the I don't have green and then put +4 I immediatly realised it.
Glad it helped!
What about if i have a card of the same number but different colour to the discard pile ?
Only you can play this card when you have no other card to match [color , number and action]
Not only did i know it but it paramount that it be played with that rule active
It certainly balances the game, and makes a win more straightforward
Hi , i have one question :) Situation was : i had last card and player before me used this card to prevent me winning. But I’ve challenged her , but she told me that she still can change color . Is it right ?
in uno official mobile game it is possible.
Can you play a regular Wild Card (not +4) at any time? My family and I were debating this at our last game.
Yes, there doesn't seem to be a rule against it that I can find!
It's about legal play and illegal play. You can play the card anytime, with a consequence.
The rule is this card can only be played if you don't have any card matching the color of the discarded card. So when you choose to play this card when you actually have that card matching the color of the discarded card, they can challenge you of illegal play. You get to draw 6 instead and others can see your entire hand.
wow, amazing! I love UNO!
It's a guilty pleasure lol
My 7 year old loves this game and would trip if she knew this rule 😄
Oh boy. Let's just say this is an "advanced Uno rule" then
Okay at 1:08, what if I have a Blue 7, do I have to play it instead of the draw 4?
What matters is if someone is out of the color, not anything to do with the number
Yes, you're allowed, you can also have action cards
no, ther is tow difrent types. one whitout the +4 and that you can only play if can´t but that whit +4 are perfectly fine
only numbers of that color, you're allowed to have other action cards of that color
According to the rules, it is any card of that color, not only numbers. Here is the quote: "You can only play this card when you don't have a card in your hand that matches the color of the card previously played." Then the rules go on to detail the challenge process that I outline in the video..
Perfect
Thanks!
*When you actually knew this*
I've known for a little while, but we certainly didn't use this rule as kids!
@@LegendaryTactics I am a kid technically
If you have a red 5 on the table and you have no reds, but you have say a green 5, doesthe challenging still apply?
No
Thanks for jumping in to clarify!
Great question! The number has nothing to do with it, just the color!
I know this rule just no way to enforce it
Sure, you can enforce it! Just challenge one of your opponents, they have to show that they are out of the suit in play. If they don't or can't, they will pay the penalty.
@@LegendaryTactics they will refuse to show
Ok. Thank you for the information
You're welcome! Hope you enjoyed it!
my friends are gonna hate me after this one
Is that a bad thing.... Or something sneaky good?
This is how I always play.
Awesome! Most people don't know about the rule, however, that's why I made the video. How do you like that rule?
@@LegendaryTacticsI don't understand the question but wow, you answer! And also, I just relise that the the meaning of my comment is weird so sorry about that cause English isn't my first language so my wording is a little weird. I wasn't meant to be mean. ❤
What I want to know is if you are challenged and caught. Does that player still have the ability to change the color. Been playing online and playing with partners and players are playing the draw 4+ knowing that they will be challenged but are still able to change the color to their partners color anyway.
According to the rules(board-games.fandom.com/wiki/Uno), even if a player loses the challenge, they may still pick the color.
What if the opponent challenges you, gets to see all your cards, then UNO reverse is played, now he knows all the cards you have.
This Game is a knockoff of a very old game played ( at least that I know in Spain and Latin America) with regular playing cards. It’s called “ Ocho Loco” ( Crazy 8) because the 8 card can change and count as any card. In this game if you receive a 2 and you have a 2 you can throw it and the next person takes 4 cards. Are you allowed to put a patent on a traditionally played game because then … any traditional game is up for grabs …
draw 4 went down anytime around my way lol
Yeah, most people don't know about this one
I took my turn and my son had two cards and just sat there and I said uno, but I was told his hand had to be in motion before I can say anything, am I wrong?
Thanks , now I know why the app keep saying CHALLENGE and opponent draw 4 + 2 = 6 cards
You're welcome! Glad it was of help!
Rules are made to be broken.
Ha ha, I like that answer
i learned this real quick in online
Great!
Actually, I did know that rule, but I always am honest with the card.
That role you can 4+ card to next player but in next player have 4+ card you can change color yellow and need yellow card
How do you check whether he has that color... Should we ask him to show all the cards...?
Yes! If challenged, that is the only way to know. The challenged player shows their cards only to the challenger, though.
@@LegendaryTactics his/her cards will be revealed with numbers right thn it will be a major disadvantage for him/her...
It could be, as one player will know their hand, although it is only shown to one player. You could add a house rule where the player revealing their hand has the option of shuffling their hand into the deck and redrawing it, but that might also lead to issues...
Thank you.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Its literally on the paper rules but its so hard to explain to them 😂😂 they thought i made it up 😂
To be fair, it seems that the rule was added in later editions, after the game became really popular. I suspect because people were saving up the +4s for when someone was about to win, and they deemed it to be unfair...
do wilds count as the same color
I'm not sure if I understand your question. If your question is "can you play a wild and keep the suit the same color?" then I believe the answer is yes
Challenger draws 6 cards or 4 if the challenge was proven invalid?
The challenger draws 6 on a failed challenge. If the challenge succeeds by calling their bluff (the challenged player had cards of that color in hand) , then the player who played the +4 has to pick up 4, not the intended victim! It is high stakes!
A lot of people should become familiar with official rules because it is buggy when they don't realize the RULES ARE TO BALANCE THE GAME. Who tf wants to play an unbalanced game? People get mad when you say "You have to put down a train one at a time because 1. we have to validate what you're putting down 2. You have to give everyone a chance to call your "Uno", which leads to 3. Always have your hand visible; I don't know when mofos started hiding their hand or holding it down, because when I was younger EVERYONE required your hand to be up so we can count how many cards you have. Playing Trains is the WORST; People don't know how to properly train numbers; THEY HAVE TO BE THE SAME COLOR, BUT A DUPLICATE NUMBER CAN CHANGE THE COLOR. This rule is so you can't just easily train numbers together, it makes training a challenge that otherwise wouldn't be much of a challenge if we're ignoring colors.
Totally agree. I think a lot of those "house rules" are in place because people like to find an advantage where they can, and if they personally like a particular advantage, why not make it canon? The same type of thing happens in Monopoly and most games that are casually played.
Does it mean that we can show all our cards to them
If challenged, yes, but only to the person challenging. If they're wrong and you're out of the current color, they pick up 6 cards instead of 4!
does this apply to draw 5 in uno flip?
Can I play wild 4+ with 2 card 2+ together ??
At the same time? No, sadly. I don't know where this particular rule came from, if it's the one I'm thinking of. It's a house rule that has gained some traction in recent years, as far as I can tell.
this sucks the stuff we should be talking about is if it’s legal to stack + cards
Great idea! I will be putting out a video soon on this!
Suppose my friend gave draw 4
And I have draw 2 and draw 4 , so can I give either of the cards by which I don't have to draw 4 cards?
Thanks
You're welcome! I hope it helped!
Yes, I knew that.
Nice! You're more well -informed than most!
I knew this to
Great!
Hyundai do I would like to know how is it that the people that you're playing against can pick up a card from the deck put it in their hand and then throw out another card. I've been trying to do that and it never work
Many questions.
1-how is this rule accepted? If another person challenge me, they can see my cards and now know what I have.
2-does this also work if say I have a special card like colour change? That I have to play that first before a +4
I have seen a comment about ur 1st question: I think the comment is "to make UNO more fair"
@@MrCobaltYT I get it, the creators make the rules, but fair should not be a good reason, not everyone is on the same intelligence level.
@@johnvines4875 Well I'm pretty much "okay with it" because it adds excitement (just my opinion)
The reason the person who false challenged you draws 6 instead of 4 is so that they don't get the benefit of seeing your cards for free.
idk why but when i explain them the rule they would get mad at me lmao they just say that the rule doesnt exist
It didn't exist in the original rules, but was added later to balance the game a bit better. So they are not wrong, but they're not right either 🙂
I knew this but people think its not a rule
Well, most people learn the game from others, and never read the actual rule book. That was my inspiration for making the video! Thanks for watching!
Thanks a lot🙏🙏🙏
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
"If my opponent challenges me I have to show my HAND to him"
You really going to expose your cards to the opponents?
This is why I don't go for this rule.
to be honest, i don't like this rule, i only play it on the online game cz i dont have to ACTUALLY show them my cards -_-, cz it would ruin the game if the oppenents knew what i have in hand ..
True, but you only have to show the hand to one person, and only if challenged... Still, I get what you mean
I don’t get it like sometimes I challenge and they do have the colour why does it still give me +6. And sometimes I press no and I’m right but still gives me +4 it’s pissing me off and making me frustrated
what happens when all cards are already drawn yet no one got uno?
I have always played that you take the top card of the discard pile aside, and reshuffle the discard pile to form a new draw deck. Then you put back that top card of the discard pile to form the new discard pile and you play from there.
@@LegendaryTactics ok, i did not know it
But can you play it with out doing that rule?
Of course! It's your game and you can choose to play it any way you like! This rule is a way to balance the game, so that +4s can't be dropped on the leader without some way of the leader protecting him/herself
totally unbalanced game if played with 2 players since draw 4 also skip next player's turn but draw 2 doesn't skip player's next turn.
I know this rule but you didn't explain what is the person that showed their hand to everybody suppose to do... LEGALLY PER THE RULES cuz one can ASSUME the one that showed their hand would dump and redraw those cards.. but what if they didnt want to do that or show their hand cuz they had a fire hand?! Does the rules SAY the hand HAS to be shown OR is it an integrity thing?!
just my thoughts!
Can we throw +4 card on +2 card
No, sadly those cards cannot "stack". I did a video on this as well, which can be found here: ruclips.net/video/R10jVv-gq6U/видео.html
When I play the four plus and the person coming up next does not have the color matter fact they have to go into this pile and get a color. But yet I still get the hammer even though they do not have a + 4 or a wild card. How is this possible?
But in team game i sometimes don't have the color i choose but then also I lose challenge
I'm not clear why that would happen? Unless I am misunderstanding how the team game is played...
What if you have an colour changing card
I don't believe there are any restrictions on that one
@@LegendaryTacticslets say i have 4 cards 2 of red, 4 of red, “color changing” card and a +4 card. Beforehand player drops a 6 of yellow and then my turn comes i drop a +4 card. If the next person challenge’s me. Should i need to take 6 cards from the ? As i was having the color changing, wherein i could have dropped instead of +4?
We had a huge fight over this, we couldnt able to come to conclusion on this, when we played
Now we learned how to cheat in uno
By following the rules! Ha ha ha
@@LegendaryTactics yes
@@LegendaryTacticsNO IM NOT DOING THAT STUPID RULE IM CHEATING I GUESS I ALSO GUES MY FAMILYS CHEATING TOO THEN
Can draw +4 card be stacked by two players?
That is a house rule I think
Does the numbers on the uno counts as a points?
Does the card 7 and 0 do anything?
........if I payed for it my rules how you gone tell me how to play my hand
Of course! That's why house rules in board and card games are a thing! Best part is you can play any way you like!
I knew it, but... I'm accused sus
Ha ha!
@@LegendaryTactics wut?
UNO = ONE in spanish
I challenge you to make an even longer video to explain something that needs 5 seconds to communicate.
I'll see what I can do!
Do you challenge it if they just got the card from drawing and place it is it legal then
The idea is that you can challenge a +4 however it ends up being played.
Its a stupid rule.
Hence why UNO is a fringe kids game.
I don't know if that's the only reason it's a fringe kids game (it's basically a revamped version of Crazy 8s), but I think the rule had to be added later because it wasn't leading to outcomes that were perceived as being fair
I knew it
Sweet! You are ahead of the curve!
0:14
LOL!
I've played UNO for almost 40 years & I never heard anyone one use this rule. NEVER!
I only discovered it when I downloaded the app.
It's just one of those house rules like free parking.
Or one rule in my favorite board game CLUE which I absolutely hate & insist its not used.
That would be when during a normal turn a player makes his suggestion and the person & weapon named are moved to the room the suggestion was made it even when the character moved is a player in the game.
I guess i can live w/ using it as a tactic to slow someone down.
But if the player was unlikely enough to choose the character who's the murder his game can be over before it starts.
Yes, I have never liked that rule in Clue.
The UNO rule was added later to address balance issues, so if you were an early adopter of the game, it's possible you missed the rules revision...
I though it was who has more of that color
No, in order to play a +4 successfully and survive a challenge you have to be out of that color.
