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.

should’ve named this video : 7 rules in UNO that your friends will ignore even after you showed them proof of their existence
dosu Your pic matches the comment
now this is epic.
Yes i agree, i said to them many time they said, no ur wrong
@@hesbeetsa Just tell them to show you that rule, you have proof. + Since they attempted to cheat it's similar to the draw 4 wildcard rule so they take 4 more cards or you take 6. Based on who proves it.
@@EvilMastermind *they never listen no matter what* ya know the card that have a arrow that look like swap? They don't know how to use them (i am from vietnam so no need to correct me)
I swear this game is exactly like Monopoly, everyone has their own rules.
Am I the only one that finds it to be weird to play monopoly outside of its official rules?

ha! i understand but do you think my friends are going to listen to me.?
No
I can't understand you.
Put a question mark
@@what-a-melon-studios1090 agreed
thanks!!! that is because i don't really look over to punctuations while commenting .............u understood right ??? if you did not then i will correct
@@Riya-qg3jp what? They is missing punctuation.
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.*
their rules somewhat annoyed me -to death-
I've never played a game of UNO with any house rules but, I'm sure with played incorrectly without following all the official rules many times by mistake.
I've always wanted to play uno with one hood rule. If the person who has uno, doesn't say uno,they would have to pick up the entire deck.
HAWELO92!!! THE MEGALOVANIA GUY!
I always played with the official rules :/ I don't mind house rules but if you play willy nilly it usually breaks the game and you run into weird situations that wouldn't happen if you played it right.
Friends:actually... You have to
Me,owner of the cards:reality can be what i want it to be
Gem RE haha me too my cards my rules
that's called house rules
So you're that type of person
yeah and i can burn all of your cards and board games if i wanted tho
I always wanna say that so badly lmao 😂😂
Who else learned these rules from watching other youtubers play this on pc Uno videos

Here is what my friend did that ruined our Friendship
Me:Place my 2+ cards as my final card
Friend:*Places a 2+ card* HAHA
Me:You can’t do that I already won (I’m pretty sure you can’t do that)
Friend:No I Place a 2+ down so get 4 cards
Me:No that’s not how it works
Friend:Stop cheating and lying you just wanna win
Me:I’m not cheating and lying and isn’t that what were suppose to do is win?
Friend:that’s it I’m not playing with a cheater and a liar
My Mind:-_-
This happen 2 weeks ago and were still not friends lol
Well yes my sister refuses to believe she may be older than me but I’m still smarter and more responsible not even my parents believe even tho my mom said learn to play uno I did they say those are fake stop faking it
Thats exactly the reason why i searched this up to show them some legal rules that we would not fight about 🤣
Chaotic style rule: +2 & +4 can stake on each other and player can protect themselves by passing the +stack using reverse and skip as long as the color match
Hang CC Also known as “draw cards can stack”.
(fixing your typo) +4 can *stack*
+2 can already stack tho
@@wafflepancake9699 I mean +2 and +4 can be use in a same stack, eg: +2,+4red, +2red, +2=+10
@@AsKing_ccC oh ok
ur right rule 5 is fake
Note: Rule 4 Clarification - The Accusing Player is the player with whom a Draw 4 card was played on them (ie. The next player in turn order after the active player).
Can I state that there’s house rules that cease appliance of Rules 4 and 5?
*2 Player Game*
What if player 1 gave the 2+ card for me and then I gave 2+ card for player 1 and now the player 1 gave 2+ card again for me? What will I do now? Should I pick 4 card from the deck?
Guess who's not playing legit uno
Can we put reverse on plus two of the same color
@@maryhopenicolebalacua6201 well according to the video you can't stack draw 2 cards
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
seems you never read the single piece of paper that comes with UNO pack
seven???
the drawing 7 cards thing doesnt seem true, but i think ur supposed to draw 4 or 2 cards if u dont say uno, and, its even on the box
I play if you don't shout Uno you pick up a card on your go.
@@paulrounding5260 not A CARD but 2 if someone catches you. If not before the next before the next player does their turn, you’re safe and you wont have to face a penalty.
stacking is what makes the game INTENSE
Uhhhh, we don't play with points.
Only in Uno online
It is optional though
Why? It add so much more strategy to a simple game.
@@Razorcarl its not.
@@DukeApples some people dont like extra things simplicity is sometimes opinionatedly (dunno if that word exist) good
I never play for points considering some rounds can go for literal hours
Rounds only go on for hours if there is more rules you are ignoring and custom rules you made up.
@@DukeApples is this a insult to custom rules?... am i mad or not!...

I like how he uses the word “not legally” instead of “not allowed”. It’s like saying “Cheat and you are going to prison.”.
I actually do that too
1:46 Damn, that's the cleanest pile created during uno I've ever seen.
reading the official mattel UNO rules right now and so far all of these are correct
We play a bit different, we add up our remaining hand to our own score...first to 500 ends the game...lowest score is the winner.
That’s the only house rule we use as well. Of course we also shuffle multiple decks together and play with 10+ people
That's also an official rule. Both ways are legit. The one in the video is the preferred one tho
I actually searched for this.
Thanks thou. Now let's go destroy some friendships during Quarantine!
Tbh
We don't even play with points
We just play like a normal one
But without points
And we just wait at for everybody to have 0 cards
Like we need for all of them wich will take 1 hour
And the last one that is left loses
Same here hehe
I never play with points, my family just plays until someone is out of cards, which means they're the winner.
I love stacking +2s though, it adds strategy to using them. It's sometimes smarter to hold onto it as a defensive tool than play it
It’s in uno wild tho
Because you don't play with a point system, otherwise you'd be splashing them +2, boi
My family have just got into UNO. This video was really helpful (I’ve never seen rules written in such a small font). Many thanks 👍
You are most welcome :D
O-O
Rule 4 is one of the most interesting rules that people refuse to accept in Uno. This completely changes the dynamic of the game because now you're not only playing Uno, you're also playing High Risk Poker.
thanks for your throughly explanation for the scoring of the winner!
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.
Classmate:Let's Make A Rule. If You Look At An Opponent's Cards,You will get +2.
Me: *Crap, It's Bird Box!*
Imagine that everyone was intentionally showing their cards so everyone would get +2 cards.
@@thanoof the absolute mad lad
This actually made Uno more interesting to play! Thanks for renewing my interest in the game!
Holy shit. I had to TH-cam this to believe it. I can’t believe I have been playing this game wrong for so long?!
Never thought I'd actually watch a video like this, but it's really interesting stuff I didn't know
Great clarification video. You forgot one more, however:
By the official rules of UNO, you may *not* willingly draw more than 1 card per turn ("willingly" being without a Draw card forcing you to). So if you draw a card that cannot be played, instead of drawing more cards, you skip your turn entirely.
Thanks for clarifying this. I did not know this rule! I guess it should now be 8 rules I didin't know about Uno. :)
@@BoardGameSanctuary lol 😂
Is there a grace period in yelling uno? A rule we made as kids was that a player has up until he places the card down to yell uno.
Thank you for clarifying this! When I played with my friends, they would use stacking, which I thought wasn't a rule. Now I can show them this video!
And then they’ll hate you. Imagine trying to have fun playing a card games with your friends the way you’ve always done since you were little and then some dipshit in the group calls you out on stacking +2 cards
I love this game partially because of all the house rules you can pick through.
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.
Back in my country i did not know uno but we played similar game with regular cards called crazy.
#2 is drow 2 and it stacks
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
Rule 4, 6 and 7 are normally used in the digital version of UNO with rule 4 being able to be enabled or disabled which is kinda neat.
Rule 5 also takes place in the digital version of UNO in the form of "stacking" which is normally disabled but can also be enabled.
I dont get it on rule 6, he say after draw a card from pile is the card that i wanna keep, than i have draw "1 more card " from the pile and play with discard pile.
But what if the "1 more card" i draw still doesn't match with the DISCARD pile than how??
He says that if you don't have a card in your hand that you can play, you *must* draw 1 card from the draw deck. If that card that you drew can be played, you *may* do so.
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.
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.
Did you know...when i play this games. Its never ends
Rules are meant to be broken, each family to their own
Lol I already knew all of this. If you have the official Uno online game you can see that there new rules that you can turn on that change the pace of the game like jump-in, stacking, 7-0, pain train, etc.
Thank you for telling us the rules to lay the game correctly!❤️
The draw card stacking rule is actually a house rule!
You're basically telling me UNO can be more cut throat than usual. THANKS!
I once made up a rule that states the next: you start the game only being able to put a even number card and each time a "special" card is used it switches to odd numbers and so on. It was a funny but looong play; it lasted at least 40 mins.
Would never do it again. 8/10

Nice, I’ve played it right all along 🙌
I love all these rules. They make uno more fun to me.
Now i have the sudden urge to play Uno and show off my skills
Don't we all... want to show off our skills! :)
I think the stacking draws makes the game more interesting
This is why you see youtubers playing the digital version of Uno because it enforces these base rules but allows you to put in a few optional but official house rules
Wow, goes to show that as kids we most definitely incorporate our own rules and/or are at the mercy of who shows us how the game is played. I legit had no idea these were the rules.
I will break the do not stack rule, mainly because it breaks more friendships, and also I would like to see a +20↑.
I’ve seen a +22 once in a chaotic 8 player game I had with a bunch of friends
It confused me when is started playing with friends and people stacked +2 and +4 cards or insisted that you have to keep drawing cards until you had a playable one which is a dumb rule because you end up with too many cards to hold. I'd try to tell them thise weren't the rules but it seemed like everyone around me seemed to play that one. So now I'm always the one to bring the deck, my cards my rules.
On the ' keep drawing cards until you had a playable one which is a dumb rule ' part, is it like when u dont have a playable card and u need to pick up until u have a playable card?

Woah! I actually never knew these rules existed. Especially the draw 2 cards do not stack rule.
The Draw 2 stack only applies for the version where you can discard all colors when you have that card.
Thanks for making it nerdy
The thing is that half the fun is that everyone has different rules. I draw until I can play, even if that means taking 20 cards, and I stack +2s. My neighbour only draws once and swaps hands when 7s or 0s are placed.
7-0 is a house rule
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.
ight imma need some pictures of that rule book cause that sounds like pure bs.
My friends made up their own dumb rule
and call it "The Asian Rules"
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.
In my opinion, its dumb cause it ends the game too quick (especially when they got lucky)
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 🤣🤣
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.
This is not family game this is *WAR*
Well, the only thing I can say is: "never change a running system." Therefore I will continue playing with the rules all my friends know and enjoy my time with them instead of bickering about unnecessary rule changes.
*OUTSTANDING MOOVE*
Now this is a clearer instruction guide to explain those 'classic' Uno rules. Didn't know that stacking +2 cards is totally not allowed....
Also I finally understand those Wild +4 card rules that some other channels didn't really explain in clear detail. Thanks for that....
0:16 usually me when playing with my friends 😂😂
Thank you Danie.
Omg I see now. That’s how you get points at the end of the ground in the online pc version. It adds up the total cards that the other players has! Plus the challenge system, it all make sense now!
Thank god I knew it drawing million cards till u get a match is just a made up rule it's very annoying when my friends dont believe me or people use that rule
This game made my parents divorce.
Ligma Victim my parents are dead because of Uno. I’m an orphan now.
really..?🤔🙄🤔

You answer a of these confusion I had, thanks!
I didn’t even know there was points in UNO but two rules I would implement is challenging a draw 4 and the one where you have to legally put down a draw 4.
Uno really need it's own anime adaptations so people can actually play as it's intended rules
I agree lol
Someone should get to work on that show
I know pretty much all of these rules, but nobody ever believes me, especially the one about stacking +2 cards. It's infuriating.
This video is satisfying because of his wild and wild draw 4 deck
Thanks for this video, although the best thing about Uno are the house rules :)
omg i didnt know about the num 7 fact... i always get a penalty... i will show this to my friends now
If you actually follow the rules of Uno you're the weird one not your friends
3:08 as shown,you may play a +4 even if you have a matching number card
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.
I practically follow all these rules and it's fun!
Ravenclaw I do too. I think it makes the game more interesting.
@@lauraireson6358
X to doubt.
@@xavierguinea5490 sqaure to agree
@@lauraireson6358 define interesting this isnt against your opinion i just want to understand you
So you play to 500 points.
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.
It’s more like for the legality of when you can play wild cards. You can disregard that rule, with the chance that you can get challenged and get +4.
Cool, this help me and my brother how to play with all the rules
This rules are usually called professional rules or tournament rules,playing uno casually is hard if there are many rules, except the rule 7 and rule 5
Wow I didn't know that you cannot stack the +2 and +4 cards. Also, I didn't know there was a scoring system as I have never played it that way in my life. It was always the first person who finishes their hand first wins, then second, and so on.
Why? the game comes with a rule book.
@@DukeApples you think we listen to rules, especially when braking them make the game more torturous?
Questions:
Do wild cards Stack?
Can I put a wild card on top of a wild draw card? Vice versa (if so, do I apply rule 4 in this case)?
Does the player that has to draw from wild draw skip their turn?
Thank u for this video
Thanks alot for that information..! : )
You are most welcome! :)
I think that everyone realizes that stacking +2 and +4 is not in the rules, but I prefer it because it puts an actual element of risk vs reward into playing an otherwise completely safe card.
What about 0-7, force play, or jump in?
Those are custom rules I believe
Uno is very accepting of custom house rules.
And they have added their favorites as house rule options to their rules over the years.
All those you mentioned started as just random shit people who played at home did to make it more fun.
And it grew in popularity so uno shared it with everyone.
They're cool like that.
SCREW THE 0-7 RULE
And DOS?
ヤマト宇宙戦艦 | I’ve never heard of those rules; can some one explain it to me? ((It’s probably because I live under a rock >.> ))
