Comment on How do you use the "uno reverse card"?
sem@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 weeks agoI’ve also played with this variation before.
My FAVORITE house rule was that when “reverse” was played by anyone, EVERYONE had to give their hands to the person on their left.
I literally only encountered this rule at one person’s house, but it really made the game less predictable and more fun.

That’s a cool rule! Kinda destroys that strategy though (TBH I can’t even remember if uno has viable strategy)

I thought so too at first, but it also introduces a 2nd level of strategy: you are guessing whether or not the other people are likely to use a Reverse before you can go out, and if yes, you’re making plays with that in mind – planning to give a less optimal hand to the person on your left, balanced against the chance that you might be able to win with your current hand.
