To discard, match a card from your hand with the top card on the discard pile by number/symbol or color (suits are disregarded). If you do not have any matching cards, you must take a card from the draw pile which ends your turn. If you successfully discard, you have the option to play a card from your UNO® hand onto your poker hand using the matching rules. Action cards force an action: "Reverse" play, "Draw Two" cards, "Draw Four" cards or "Skip" next player. Wild cards let you name what color will continue play. Before discarding your second to last card (or immediately afterwards), you must call "UNO." If another player catches that you forgot before the next turn begins, you will receive two cards from the draw pile. Once you have called "UNO", you must wait until your next turn to play your last card either on your poker hand or the discard pile. Draw Two Card: When played, the next person to play must draw 2 cards and miss their turn. Reverse Card: This simply reverses direction of play. In two-player UNO®, it acts as a skip. Skip Card: When played, the next person to play is skipped (loses a turn). Deck and Action Cards The UNO 52TM deck has 240 cards. There are four standard 52 card decks, each unchanged, save for being colored one of the four UNO® colors: red, yellow, green and blue. There is a blue deck, a green deck, and so on. There are also 32 of the regular UNO® action cards in the deck. These cards behave just as they do in original UNO®. Wild Card: The person playing this card calls for any color to continue the play. 12 13 Wild Draw Four Card: Behaves as a wild and a draw card. This may only be played when the player has none of the active colored cards in their hand. Players may bluff and play it illegally, but the next player may challenge it using SELECT. If caught, the bluffing player must draw four cards. If the challenger is wrong, they must draw six cards instead of the four they would have. Going Out When a player has only one card left, they must call "UNO." This is done by pressing the R Button before the second to last card has been discarded. If the player fails to do this, opponents can challenge that player for forgetting to call "UNO" by pressing the L Button. This challenge must be made before the next player draws or discards. Players who are successfully challenged for forgetting to call "UNO" are forced to draw two cards. The player must also allow for an entire round of turns between calling "UNO" and playing their last card. However, once the round of turns has passed, that card may be played either on the discard pile or the poker hand. chip (10 points) goes to the player who is first to go out and the red chip (5 points) goes to the player that finishes with the best poker hand. All players that did not go out first that round must pay one white chip (or one point in chips) per the remaining cards in their hand to the pot. For example, if a player has 5 cards remaining when the round ends, they must pay 5 points in chips to the pot. When a player wins both the blue and red chip, they win the pot as well. Poker hands are scored at the end of the round using standard poker scoring. BEST Five of a Kind Royal Flush Straight Flush Four of a Kind Full House Flush Straight Three of a Kind Two Pairs One Pair High Card WORST Two of a kind Highest card in your hand Two of one kind, three of another Five cards of the same suit Five cards in sequence A straight flush of 10-J-Q-K-A Five cards in sequence, all of the same suit Scoring Chips are used in place of points to determine the winning and losing parties. Before each round, players all ante a white chip (1 point) to the pot. At the end of each round, the blue 14 15 Team Play UNO 52TM teammates play completely separately, while being affected by each other in the form of wins and chips. Between teammates, chips are shared. Should one win the poker hand and the other "go out" first, they will take the pot. Alternate Cards Wild Reverse: This card is a combination of a Reverse card and a Wild card. It can be played at any time, allows the player to choose the new color, and reverses the direction of play. House Rules Stack Draw Cards: When a Draw Two card is played, instead of drawing two cards, you can stack a Draw Two card on top. The next player would have to draw four or stack a Draw Two card on top. Wild Draw Four Cards: Choose when Wild Draw Four cards can be played as well as whether to allow bluffing. Draw Card Penalty: Choose the number of cards a player who is caught forgetting to call "UNO" must draw. Dealt Cards: Select the number of cards dealt: from 5 and 15. Wilds on Poker Hands: Wild cards can be played on poker hand cards. A new color is selected, but the suit and value of the card underneath are retained. Wild Symbol: When this card is played on the discard pile, the player chooses a symbol (0-9, Reverse, Skip, Draw Two, All Draw Two). After the symbol is chosen, this card can only be played upon by matching the symbol or by playing a Wild card. Wild Skip: This card is a combination of a Skip card and a Wild card. It can be played at any time, allows the player to choose the new color, and skips the next player's turn. All Draw Two: When this card is played on the discard pile, all other players must draw two cards. This card is available in all 4 colors. 16 17 Level 2 Win Condition: Get the best poker hand twice Joker Card: This card is available in all 4 colors and can represent any poker card value when played on a poker hand. Once played, the card number or value will change automatically whenever your poker hand changes. The Joker may also be played on the UNO® discard pile to match a like-colored card or another Joker, but no special actions occur.

The object is to make your score as high as possible before you run out of chips. Add some strategy to your game! UNO 52TM Solitaire UNO 52TM Solitaire is a blend of UNO® and Solitaire that is loosely based on the UNO 52TM deck. The type of Solitaire used in UNO 52TM Solitaire is the most common version called Klondike. The deck in UNO 52TM Solitaire is a regular deck of 52 cards, but with no suits. Instead, the UNO® colors replace suits. There are also no UNO® action cards in this deck. UNO 52TM Solitaire is played just like regular Solitaire, but with a few exceptions. First, the foundation piles are segmented by UNO® colors instead of suits. There are only six tableau piles and most importantly, the tableau piles are built downward using UNO® matching rules. There is also a five-minute timer. Timed Mode Timed Mode features a single computer-controlled opponent of normal difficulty. In this mode, a game lasts 20 minutes, and each round lasts a maximum of 2 minutes. If either timer runs out before either player goes out, the best poker hand is awarded and the value of the pot increases. The value of your winnings each round is added to your score, which can never decrease. Antes and penalties are paid automatically and have no adverse effect on you. Race against the clock to make your score as high as possible! How to Play Solitaire In a game of Solitaire, the object is to build the four foundations piles from Ace to King segmented by color. Top-most cards on the tableau piles and the waste pile are in play. They can be placed on a foundation pile in the correct ascending order or on a tableau pile if it can be matched. You can also page through the cards in the stock pile and play those as they are overturned. When a tableau is empty, you can place a king in that spot or place a group of cards that is headed with a king. 20 21 CREDITS Developed by: BLACK LANTERN STUDIOS, INC.
