Product Description:
UNO is the classic family card game that’s easy to pick up and impossible to put down! Players take turns matching a card in their hand with the current card shown on top of the deck either by color or number. Special action cards, like Skips, Reverses, Draw Twos, color-changing Wild and Draw Four Wild cards, deliver game-changing moments as they each perform a function to help you defeat your opponents. If you can’t make a match, you must draw from the center pile. And when you’re down to one card, don’t forget to shout “UNO!” The first player to get rid of all the cards in their hand wins. Now card game-lovers can get UNO in a sturdy tin that’s great for travel and makes storage stress-free. Colors and decorations may vary.

Believe it or not, I forgot how to play UNO. Which is weird, considering how much I played it when I was younger. Even as a young adult. But just like riding a bike, you never really lose it. Open the tin, break out the cards and the rule sheet. And in a minute, it all came back. So easy to play, that even toddlers can participate.
BONUS TIP: HOW TO GET EVEN THE SMALLEST KIDS INVOLVED
So Mattel recommends that kids ages 7 and up can play. But any kid 4-6 can most likely grasp the basic rules, as long as they can recognize numbers. The catch is that it may not hold the attention of a five year old all that great. But there’s a way that you can still put the UNO cards to good use, while enjoying some bonding time with your little ones. Here’s what I figured out, after a couple of games of UNO with our Little Girl….
Make it a memory game. What I did was go through the cards, and picked out two identical ones for different numbers/colors. So two green 5 cards. Two red 4 cards. Two blue 2 cards. Two yellow 7 cards. I tried to avoid sixes and nines. Basically take eight to twelve cards in total. Then place them in two to three rows, face down (UNO side up). I’d ask our Daughter to flip a card over. Yellow 7. Okay, now try to find the other Yellow 7. And she gets to flip over another card. If it’s not the right one, I let her know that was a really good try. Now let’s flip the cards over, and try it again. If she gets it right, I congratulate her, and she gets so excited. This way, she can play a simple game that also helps her work on her memory skills. So she can remember where certain cards were, and match them up. When she does well with six cards, I bump it up to eight cards. Then ten cards. It’s simple, but fun for the smaller kids that may lose interest in actually playing UNO. And she still gets to have fun with the rest of us.
There are no negatives about this set. The only thing that could have possibly been improved, is to have made the tin a tiny bit more travel-friendly. The two stacks of cards are held in plastic, inside of the tin. But it seems like they could have simply made the tin much smaller, and still fit the cards in. Making it a bit easier to just stick in your pocket. That’s not a dealbreaker, just thinking out loud. Otherwise, the quality of the cards and tin are both great.
Look. It’s ten bucks. That’s it. People spend more than that on two iced coffees, or a drive-through at a fast food place. But those are things you only get to enjoy once. Whereas you could use these cards in this tin for well over a decade. Plus you can make it a family tradition, or have fun when friends come over. It’s advertised as a kid’s game. But truth be told, we played it more in our dorm’s game room than I ever did as a child. UNO never gets old. Why put it off? Add it to your shopping cart. You’ve got the ten bucks to spare, right now. Check out. It will show up at your home in as soon as a day, if you have Prime free shipping. And you can take that ten dollars, and turn it into million dollar memories with your family. But you can’t do that, if you don’t order it. So buy a set today, you’ll be thankful you did.

The game is incredibly simple to learn, making it accessible for younger kids and non-gamers, but it still offers enough strategy to keep older players engaged. With 2 to 10 players, it’s great for large gatherings or small family nights at home.
The cards are durable, and the illustrations are vibrant and fun. We love the special action cards that add a twist to the game, like Skip, Reverse, and Draw Two cards. Plus, the Wild and Wild Draw Four cards can change the game in an instant, keeping everyone on their toes.
Overall, the UNO Card Game is a must-have for family game nights and a fantastic gift for kids and adults alike. It’s a game that never gets old, and it’s sure to bring laughter and friendly competition to any gathering. Highly recommended!
Time and Space –
The tin case came tightly packaged, slipped in a cardboard box with no padding. The box appeared to not have been impacted nor crushed. The tin case was perfect with no dents nor scratches.
Inside, the cards are divided into two decks, side-by-side, within a red cardboard frame to keep them from shifting and rattling in motion. There’s a 1.7-2.0 cm. margin that the inner cardboard frame takes up which could end up being removed to make the case smaller and more portable.
Checking the cards, there were no scratches, bends, dents, creases, fraying, or any other physical defects. The printing is technically perfect as well so, combined with no physical defects, it is practically impossible to recognize specific cards from their edge or back. However…
Be it from printing alignment or cutting alignment, the graphics are slightly misaligned from the edges of some cards, either shifted off, or rotated by, a millimetre. Nothing egregious, but it isn’t perfect. I am not expecting perfect precision though but if that is what you’re looking for you would probably end up buying multiple sets to assemble all the cards you found to be perfect into a single set. That, or produce your own custom set. I wouldn’t go so far to create a perfect set for a game like Uno though.
I won’t comment on the game itself as it is the same as it ever will be other than different variants and whatever group or house rules. That said, I got what I paid for and expected.
