UNO Wild Tiles (1982)

About this game

Players draw hands of tiles with color and number and arrow markings. Much like in the card-based UNO, each player must play the next tile that matches either the color or number of the previous one played. However in UNO Wild Tiles, they must play it on the space indicated by the arrow on the previous tile, and may place their own tile so that the arrow suits them. Winner is the first to clear their rack, or the person with the fewest points when it is impossible to play any more tiles.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• 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.
