In the game of Uno, a Skip card forces the next player in turn order to lose their turn. It can only be played on a matching color or another Skip card. If a Skip card is turned up at the beginning of play, the first player (to the dealer’s left) is skipped, and the next player starts.
Action:
The Skip card’s primary function is to interrupt the normal turn sequence by skipping the next player’s turn.
Color and Number:
The Skip card can only be played on a card of the same color or another Skip card.
Beginning of Play:
If a Skip card is revealed as the starting card, the player to the dealer’s left loses their turn, and play continues with the next player.
Example:
If player A plays a Skip card, then player B’s turn is skipped, and player C gets to play next, according to Uno rules.

UNO Skip Cards Use
This card is useful when you want to prevent another player from playing or when you want to change the order of the game. Also, a skip card can help you to discard unwanted cards and save important cards for later use. However, it can also backfire, as you may skip a player with a bad hand or give another player a chance to win.
The skip card is used in every version of uno and is one of the most common special cards in the game. If a skip card is the first card of the game, the player to the left of the dealer turns skips, and the player to the left of that player starts the game.
