UNO Stacko (1994)

About this game

Jenga meets Uno. The blocks are colored and numbered, so you have to pull a block that matches either the color or the number of the previously-pulled block. Earlier editions of this game (1994-1996) had a die, the Uno cube, which was used to determine which kind of block had to be moved. In the versions with dice, the die determined either the number or the color of the block to be removed. The Reverse and Draw Two actions were only reflected on the die. In the later non-dice versions (1999-present), the actions were instead represented with symbols on some of the blocks (Reverse, Draw Two, Skip Turn, and Wild).

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 10.
• Rules load. At 1.1/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
