UNO Origins: How a family game got serious
UNO isn’t just a card game — it’s a global phenomenon. Like Monopoly, Clue, and Scrabble, UNO has earned its place in the hall of legendary games. With its bright colors, fast-paced gameplay, and infamous “Draw Four” drama, it’s brought families together — and torn them apart — for over 50 years.
In this video, we explore how UNO became a cultural staple, break down the official rules (including a few that might surprise you), and meet the world’s very first UNO champion. He’ll share his winning strategies, sneaky tactics, and expert insights to help you level up your game. Whether you play for fun or play to win, this is everything you need to know to become an UNO champion.
