Uno (/ˈn/; 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]

Uno Flip Card

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:

Uno
  • 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]

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]

To play Flip, you need..:

  • 2 decks of 54 cards
  • To be 2 players
Uno

Start a game of Flip :

At the beginning of the game, the cards are shuffled and distributed to the 2 players. Each player takes his pack face down.

You put 4 cards each in front of you and you put one in the middle (side by side), all face down.


At the count of 3,2,1, all cards are turned over at the same time, ending with the card in the middle. Each player tries to put his or her cards on one of the cards in the middle as quickly as possible (regardless of who put it there at the beginning of the game). Players play at the same time, there is no turn.

Important:
You must always have 4 cards in front of you. As soon as one of the cards is played, one of them must be put back in its place.

The cards in the middle of the deck will be covered with cards from the top or bottom of the deck as the game progresses.
Example:
A jack will be covered by a queen or a 10 (regardless of suit).
An ace will be covered by a king or a 2 (regardless of color).

Uno Flip Card Instructions

Essential rule:
If the cards in the middle are identical, the first player to place his hand on the 2 middle cards by saying 'FLIP' forces the opposing player to take all the cards in the middle.
Afterwards, each player places a new card in the middle to continue the game.

Uno Flip Card

It happens situations where none of the 4 cards put down of the 2 players do not allow to play. In this case, the cards are discarded at the same time and put back by the players under their deck. New cards will be placed in their place.
