After playing a single card or drawing, the next player clockwise takes a turn, or anti-clockwise when a reverse is in effect. A player may choose to draw the top card of the stock even if they have a legal play (known as reneging), but after having drawn, the top card of the stock, and only that card, may be played that turn (a player may intentionally do this when desperate to keep another player from going out). If a player has no legal card to play, that player draws the top card of the stock, and may either play it or place it in their hand. If a player has two of the same numbers, they can play both if one is the color needed. clockwise.Īt each turn, a player may play a card from their hand that matches the color or rank of the top exposed card, or play a wild or wild draw four. Play begins with the person to the left of the dealer, i.e. If the exposed card is a wild draw four, however, it is returned to the deck and the next card is exposed. If the exposed card has a special ability, it is treated as if the dealer played that card, and the special effect occurs (i.e., skip, draw two, reverse, or wild). Any other cards are then put back into the deck.Īfter the dealer has been selected, seven cards are dealt to each player, and the top card of the stock is exposed to start the discard pile. Only number cards are used for this purpose. The person with the card of the highest face value is the dealer. In older versions, only the 6 is underlined to distinguish it from the 9, which is not marked newer versions have both the 6 and the 9 underlined to further distinguish the two ranks.īefore playing, a dealer must be selected. There are four "wild" and "wild draw four" cards each, producing a total of 108 cards. There are two copies of each regular and honor card, except for the zero card, which only have one per suit. There are special black cards, "wild" and "wild draw four". There are 3 "honor" cards in each color, labeled "skip", "draw two", and "reverse".
The deck consists of cards of 4 colors: red, green, blue, and yellow.
