Uno (/ ˈ uː n oʊ /; from Spanish and Italian for 'one'), stylized as UNO, is a proprietary American shedding-type card game originally developed in 1971 by Merle Robbins in Reading, Ohio, a suburb of Cincinnati, that housed International Games Inc., a gaming company acquired by Mattel on January 23, 1992.
The earlier versions of Uno Stacko include a die, called the Uno Cube, the faces of which bear the following: Red 1; Blue 2; Green 3; Yellow 4; Reverse; Draw Two; When a colored number turns up, the player pulls a block having the same color or number as the side indicated.
Uno Attack. Uno Attack (called Uno Extreme in the United Kingdom and Canada; stylized as UNO Attack) is one of many variations on the popular Mattel card game Uno. It includes 112 (106 in the later versions) cards as well as a mechanical card launcher. It was released in 1998 [1] with production overseen by Jeffrey Breslow.
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 are two-sided, consisting of the "Mild" side (also known as the "Light" side) with white fonts and borders and the "Wild" side (also known as the "Dark" side) with black fonts and borders.
The Xbox 360 version of the game offers three different game modes including Standard Uno, Partner Uno, and House Rules Uno. In Partner Uno, players sitting across from each other join forces to form a team, so that a win by either player is a win for the team. In House Rules Uno, the rules can be tweaked and customized to the player's preference.
