Hm, I do remember that Monopoly's actual rules are better than most people's house rules. Maybe the Uno people have a point?

If we can't keep adding +X cards to the rotation until one poor fool is left drawing 183 cards then what even is the point of playing Uno?

I fucking hate house rules

"I pulled this rule of my ass and now it's the law"

Next you're going to tell me I can't sandbag on purpose in Spades to trick the other team into reneging.

Doesn't the official uno online app allow for +2 stacking?

I hate Uno.

First you stack +2. Then you stack +4 and +2. Next, whenever there's a +n, everyone can throw a +n in. Logically this now goes for reverse too. And so on... it ends in a card fight.

Uno is just a shit version of the dutch game Pesten, which in turn is more fun if you shuffle 4 packs of cards together for larger groups.

No one has ever played Mouse Trap or Operation and followed the rules.

What are these even for?

+4 can also go in a +2 but now only +4s can be player—you can’t go back to +2.

You can skip a skip, but then it skips two people. If the person who it lands on skips again, it skips three people, and so on. Fun to figure out when you’re all wasted.

We calls it Meanuno.

remember: wild draw four should only be played on your mortal enemy

I'm not even sure where the official rules end and where the house rules begin and a quick Google search didn't find anything for me either, but I think that's stupid (no +2 on a +2) and it runs counter to how the rest of the game is played (unless I'm also going off of other house rules, I'm not clear on what the "official" rules are).

So the main mechanic of the UNO is matching cards, whether it's by text/symbol, or by color. I can play a green 2 on a red 2, because the text/number/symbol matches. I can also play a blue 'Skip' on a yellow 'Skip' or a green 'Reverse' on a yellow 'Reverse' or I can match them up by color, the whole point is that you're matching things up because that's how the color cards work. The black cards Wild and Draw 4 work a little differently, that's understood (for the most part), those you can't play unless you have no other option.

Why then is it that the 'Draw 2' cards are given a special place, why even have color versions of those cards in the first place unless you're trying to confuse players? If they had wanted them to behave differently, they should've made them black-bordered and/or multi-colored like the Wild and Draw 4 cards, that would let people know, "Oh hey, these have different rules." Instead, they're made to look like all the other color cards and then the UNO Industrial Complex says, "No, you can't actually use these the same ways as every other card, you're an idiot for thinking that." The reason so many people "screw up" this rule is because they're playing the game consistently and they're applying the main mechanic as it should be applied.

You cannot play a +2 on a +2

Sounds like the Pauli Exclusion Principle applied to cards.

If you make your own rules you may end up in:

Uno: The Movie

i played a game where we had a rule that skip cards could stack.

while being skipped, if you have a skip card, you could play it instead of being skipped. skipping your skip. the next person would be skipped instead, continuing the cycle.
