Gameplay

The UNO Flash is a fun fast playing card game that uses an electronic unit to select the next player and the time limit for each turn. To start the game, insert batteries into the electronic unit and turn it on. Choose the speed switch on the bottom of the unit to select how many seconds you want to give the players to play a card. You can choose between four seconds, six seconds, or unlimited time.

As you have a dealer machine to select the player now, shuffle all the cards and deal seven cards to each player to start, and then place the rest of the deck face down on one side of the unit to form a draw pile. Turn over the top card of the draw pile and place it on the other side of the unit to start a discard pile.

Each player presses the player button in front of them. This will be their personal player button for the whole game. Press the play/pause button to start the game. The unit will randomly pick a player to go first and light up their player button. When your player button is lit up, it is your turn and you have to play a card from the draw pile by matching the card by its color or numbers. If the card you draw can be played, you can play it in the same turn. Otherwise, you must keep it in your hand.

As soon as your turn ends, you must press your player button and the unit will then randomly pick the next player to play. Watch out, it could be you again. If you don’t press your player button before the time runs out and the buzzer sounds, you must draw two cards as a penalty.

Some special action cards have different effects on the game. Here is a summary of what they do:

• Draw Two: The draw 2 card allows the next player to draw two cards and skip their turn.
• Skip: The next player loses their turn.
• Slap: when any player plays this card, press the slap button on the unit. All players must race to press their player buttons. The last player to do so must draw two cards. Press the flashing player button to resume the game.
• Wild: You can play this card on any card and choose the color for the next player to match.
• Wild Draw Four: You can play this card on any card and choose the color for the next player to match. The next player must also draw four cards and skip their turn and if in case any player doesn’t have any matching cards, you can play this card.

When you have only one card left in your hand, you must yell “UNO” to let the other players know and if in case any player forgets to yell “UNO” and someone catches him before the next player starts their turn he must draw two cards.

Winning

The round ends when one player has no cards left in their hand and again the next round starts begins and continues until the winner gets 500 points first by collecting all round points and that player is the winner of the game. Note: if any player plays a slap card on his turn, then there is no need to press the player button, instead the player must press the slap button.
