Game Play
The player left of the dealer is first to play. A card can be played into the middle if it matches the top discard in color or number, or a special card can be played (see above). If a player cannot play, a card is drawn from the draw pile. If the card drawn can be played, the player can play it. If the card drawn cannot be played, play moves to the next player.
Once a player is down to one card left, he/she must announce “Uno.” Uno should be announced as a player is playing his/her second to last card. If a player fails to announce Uno with only one card left, another player can catch it by calling Uno before the next player plays a card. If caught not saying Uno, the player with one card must draw two cards from the draw pile.
The first player to get rid of all his/her cards wins the round.
Score
The player that got rid of his/her cards first is awarded points based on the cards remaining in the other players’ hands. Only count the points on the side of the cards that were being played when the round ended.

Uno (/ˈuːnoʊ/; from Italian and Spanish for 'one'; stylized as UNO) Flip is an Americanshedding-typecard game produced by Mattel.[3] The cards from the deck are specially printed for the game. This game is a sequel to its predecessorcard game, Uno.[4]
Gameplay[edit]
As in the original Uno, the goal of Uno Flip is to be the first to play all the cards in one's hand, scoring points for the cards still held by others.
All cards have two playable sides, one 'light' and one 'dark' as indicated by their borders. Only one side is in play at any given time, starting with the light side at the beginning of each new hand. Each side has its own set of four colors, action/Wild cards, and number cards from 1 through 9.
Both sides contain two 'Flip' cards in each of their respective colors. When a Flip is played, the deck and discard pile are immediately turned over and all players must turn their hands around to play the other side of their cards.
Light Side[edit]
Colors for this side are red, yellow, green, and blue. Special cards are as follows:
- Draw One: Next player in sequence draws one card and loses a turn.
- Skip: Next player in sequence loses a turn.
- Reverse: Switches the order of play (clockwise to counterclockwise, and vice versa).
- Wild: Player names the next color to be matched. May be used on any turn.
- Wild Draw Two: Player names the next color to be matched; next player in sequence draws two cards and loses a turn. May only be used if the player has no cards of the current color.
- Flip: Switch from light to dark side.
Dark Side[edit]
Colors for this side are orange, pink, teal, and purple. Special cards are as follows:
- Draw Five: Next player in sequence draws five cards and loses a turn.
- Skip Everyone: Grants an extra turn.
- Reverse: Same as light side.
- Wild: Same as light side.
- Wild Draw Color: Player names the next color to be matched; next player in sequence must draw cards until receiving one of that color, then loses a turn. May only be used if the player has no cards of the current color.
- Flip: Switch from dark to light side.
Penalties[edit]
A player who fails to call 'uno' after playing their next-to-last card and is caught by another player before the next draw/play must draw two cards as a penalty.
When a Wild Draw Two or Wild Draw Color is played, the next player in sequence may challenge its use if they believe the holder could have played a card of the matching color. The challenged player must then show their cards privately. If the challenge is valid, the challenged player must draw the cards, if not, the challenger must draw them, plus two more as a penalty.
Scoring[edit]
Uno Flip Cards And What They Mean
When one player uses their last card, they have 'gone out' and the hand is over. That player scores points for all cards held by opponents as follows:
- Number cards: Face value
- Draw One: 10 points
- Draw Five, Reverse, Skip, Flip: 20 points
- Skip Everyone: 30 points
- Wild: 40 points
- Wild Draw Two: 50 points
- Wild Draw Color: 60 points
Points are scored based on the side that is in play after the last card is laid down. If a player goes out by using any card that requires the next player to draw, that player must take the appropriate number of cards before the scores are tallied.
The first player to score 500 points wins the game.
Reception[edit]
Uno Flip has gotten mild reviews, with Board Game Geek giving it a 6.6 out of 10, saying that 'UNO gets a brand new twist in the new UNO Flip! card game' and the only negative thing is, 'if you don't yell 'UNO' and someone catches you, you must draw two cards'[5]
