Why this VERY controversial little-known UNO rule is dividing thousands: Skip and +2 rules

Popular family card-game UNO just revealed a shocking rule that states players can use their Skip cards to avoid Draw 2s – but only if they’re the same colour.

‘Skipping never felt so good,’ wrote UNO on their official Twitter account. ‘If someone plays a Draw 2 on you and you have a Skip card of the SAME COLOR in your hand, you can play it and ‘bounce’ the penalty to the next player!’

UNO also disclosed that if the next player has a Skip card of any colour, they can use it and pass the penalty on further.

‘The next player must draw the two cards, unless they have a Skip card (of any colour) they can play, in which case they pass the penalty to the next player and so on until no one has a Skip card and must draw two cards.’

UNO also took to the replies to settle several age-old debates – such as a player being unable to ‘Skip’ a Draw 4 card.

‘You can’t Skip a Draw 4, that’s crazy talk,’ said UNO.

The official account also revealed that players could not stack cards on top of another, and that people were only supposed to play one card per turn.

‘You can only play one card per turn – stacking is not allowed!’

However UNO admitted that a player could use a ‘Skip’ if two Draw 2s were played during the previous turns.

Thousands were shocked by the revelation and refused to accept the new rule into gameplay

Thousands were shocked by the revelation and refused to accept the new rule into their gameplay.

‘Absolutely not,’ said one devout fan. ‘I’ve lost enough friendships over fighting this exact rule.’

‘I can’t find this in the rulebook – surely this is fake!’

While others admitted that they had been using the rule all along.

‘This is standard – why are so many people shocked?’ asked one ardent UNO fan.

‘The UNO video game uses this rule as well, it’s legit.’
