Advantages: A great fun family game Disadvantages: None
Recently I've been playing a lot of games and after exhausting several card games and getting bored with them I realised I had a pack of Uno cards still sealed from last year. I'd bought a new pack for holiday after having played the game as a child and remembering how much fun we used to have playing it. The cards went all that way and got forgotten about in the bottom of my suitcase though. So until recently it was shoved in a corner in my room. I'm so glad that I opened it though as it's given us hours of fun.
So what is Uno?
Uno is a simple card game, which can be played by all members of the family. The rules are easy to pick up and it only takes a couple of games to grasp the rules. Uno states that those aged 7 and above should be able to play this game. I would have first played it when I was around 10 and I never had any ...

Advantages: Very addictive gameplay. Great fun for all ages. Disadvantages: Tempting not to stop sometimes.
As far as card games go, I would have to say that Uno ranks as one of the best, if not the best. It is simple yet addictively enjoyable. Mattel have hit a success with this game. If you don't know the rules, they are easy to pick up, but I shall roughly explain them here.
Each player (between 2 and 4, but I can't see any reason why more than 4 can't play) is dealt 7 random cards. The 108 cards in the pack are characterised by both their colour (red, green, blue and yellow), and their number (0 to 9). The object of the game is to get rid of all of your cards before everyone else. This is done with a base card from the top of the shuffled pack. Let's say for example that the card is a blue 8; the first player to go has to have either a blue card to correspond with the colour, or an 8 card to correspond with the number. Play continues ...

Advantages: Great game for children and adults. Disadvantages: None
As a family we have played the traditional Uno card game for years. A couple of Christmas's ago my son who was 9 at the time put Uno Extreme on his Christmas list. I couldn't see the point of buying this as I thought the ordinary game was good enough. His Christmas list however was shown to various family members as usual.
Father Christmas kindly left my son this much wanted game on Christmas morning and Father Christmas was also on the ball enough to leave 3xC batteries as well (he is a clever fellow isn't he?). That afternoon the batteries were put in the bottom compartment which was easy and opened with a screwdriver so little fingers couldn't mess with them. The game is presented with a pack of cards and a red and purple plastic machine with a button on the front. The playing cards are stored inside when not playing and there ...
