Description

An UNO variant. Each card shows a short word. Goal is to get rid of all cards in hand. In turns, players play a card which has the same vowel or the same starting letter as the one on top of the discard pile (or draw one card, if unable to do so). As usual, there are a number of action cards (draw 2, change direction, ...). Unlike standard UNO, these also have a word that must match up. So it's often not possible to play a 'take 2' directly onto another one. In addition, there are a number of variants; for example, when a player plays a card which starts with a 'z', each player gives his cards to his neighbor.
