Playing Uno with the family on a roasting day under a tree in the garden, with plenty of snacks and drinks... Uno really is the perfect holiday game, easy to play and a real laugh. And yes we stack +2s

We play Uno regularly with the kids. Great game. And I’m with you on the +2’s - got to be done!!
The stacking of +2's is the way to start a fight in our house. I have now banned stacking.
First experience today on the Elizabeth Line. It's not exactly futuristic, but a hell of a step up from my usual commute on the Victoria Line. Smart, clean and air-conditioned.
4G or wifi would've been good though.

Shocking Uno behaviour- do you do the same for +4 , skips and reverse ?
I haven't played Uno much in a while, but I always thought stacking the +2s was just part of the rules. I never knew there was a debate surrounding it or any other way to play.
You have certainly played more Monopoly than me. Not heard of the first two, but that third one was how it worked when I played monopoly online with some pals during one of the lockdowns, so I figure that's a common rule. Maybe American rules differ to English ones, I don't know.we have always played stacking of it.
its one of those rules that people seem to vary
much like monopoly
ive played with people who if you land on go its £400 not £200 (£200 to pass)
ive played with all the fines etc going to free parking and if you land on that you get all the fines (love that one)
ive played with ones where if you dont buy something it goes to auction to the rest of the field straight away

The third of these rules (property goes to auction if not bought when landed on by player) is, IIRC, a basic original rule...just that for whatever reason it was ignored when I learned to play the game and is in general not played.You have certainly played more Monopoly than me.

I've heard of that strategy but you can't do that on the online version either, I think there are just infinite houses rather than being limited to what you have in the box.I used to have a copy on the pc like 15 years ago, and you got the option to set up those are options
I mean I've played with people who play smart and keep 4 houses to cause a housing shortage so you can't buy any lol would never happen growing up my mum is too nice ...oh let your sister have a house
Yeah I suspected the same. I think it speeds up the game, but it also means whoever has the most money picks up more of the property quicker I guess - so the rule is not played in the interest of balance?The third of these rules (property goes to auction if not bought when landed on by player) is, IIRC, a basic original rule...just that for whatever reason it was ignored when I learned to play the game and is in general not played.
But at the start of the game when all properties would be bought or auctioned as the squares are landed on all players have pretty much got the same amount of money - they just choose their investment strategy; what to invest in; whether to wait for what they want, or whether to go for (any old) properties as fast as possible as that helps you build some money quicker and gives you a hold in the property market. Thinking about it it's probably a better way of playing, just not as simple for younger players who wouldn't be so understanding of the auctioning aspect and so would find themselves with no properties and going bankrupt very quickly and out of the game.Yeah I suspected the same.

True - it does mean you can get some of the more rubbish properties at lower than normal value potentially.But at the start of the game when all properties would be bought or auctioned as the squares are landed on all players have pretty much got the same amount of money - they just choose their investment strategy; what to invest in; whether to wait for what they want, or whether to go for (any old) properties as fast as possible as that helps you build some money quicker and gives you a hold in the property market.

No stacking on +4's either. we had a proper meltdown after trying that and we didnt play for 3 months....
Skips and reverses are fine!!
What about the custom cards?! And can you win by laying Shuffle hands as your last card?!
