Default 1 game. 3 letters. UNO!

Good game earlier Nino/etalien... even if the computer AI pipped us to the post

Uno's such a good little game though, Hardwood Hearts felt a bit rubbish but this is really refined. And the webcam should make it doubly good.

Seriously, I was thinking about playing some Oblivion tonight, but I'm going back to Uno instead...

Don't feel bad, I won 3 and lost 16. But hey, it's all in the cards. You can't actually suck at a game based on chance.

I've won 100% of my offline games, and 0% of my online games

It was quite funny yesterday though, I was ranked 20th in the world (Presumably because nobody else had downloaded it...!)

Uno rocks it all! With the real Uno it's so easy to cheat 6 - 9 switching trick, or 2 cards on top of eachother

I let the girlfriend loose on Uno tonight. Not only did she win almost every game but she also unlocked three achievements in about 60 seconds (all of the "...play 40 cards" ones, in fairness I appeared to have played 39 of each...)

Not many people in the game lobbies tonight though. We need to spread the word!

Ok, I admit it, I have no idea what Uno is and what the rules are, but all these great reviews about the game make me want to know. Is it easy?

Anyone who want's to play a game; add me to your friendslist. But watch out 'cause I'm a lucky person when it comes to UNO (so it seems). Made almost all of the achievements in one day

I love UNO. It's one of the best arcade titles. You HAVE to have your own custom soundtracks though because thee music they provide sounds like Mexican elevator music.

I read the rules for it, you have to match colour or number? Is that it? Is it a game where you pick up and get the rules within a few matches?

I bought the game blind, I had no idea what Uno was. I think it is THE best arcade game yet, the rules are dead simple and it is a lot of fun, well worth the buy if you're not sure.

It's a bit too easy if you ask me. You can push A/green over and over again until you have one card left, press X/blue and voila, another win.... I've only played the trial but I expected more out of this. Does the full game have more to offer?

Well the rules are fairly simple, and yes the computer highlights the card that generally it thinks it's better to play, but it's often wrong. EG if you're pretty sure the guy next to you has one red left, and the computer is telling you to play a high red, you'd switch suits. Or play your Draw 4 card (it never advises you to play that card - the most powerful in the deck - unless you have no other options).

So there's a little more to it than that, plus it's a fun online game with no lag, and once the webcam's released it should be a double hoot.
