Uno bosses confirm you can’t stack +2 cards on top of each other

I’m not having this…

Uno has confirmed via Twitter that you cannot stack +2 cards on top of each other and people are having none of it.

It’s the highlight of an Uno match, it keeps tensions high and you on the edge of your seat – as much as a card game can, at least.

The most I’ve witnessed is a pick up of 10, when the plus two’s were racking up in a Domino effect that didn’t seem to have an end.

We were playing with the Uno 50th anniversary edition pack which has two full packs in it, so things get messy pretty quickly. 

Everyone pretty much knows that before you play Uno with a new set of mates you have to define your rules. Can +2 cards go on top of each other? Can +4 cards go on top of each other??

Taking to Twitter, the official game has put an end to the nonsense but pretty much no one is happy.

In a Tweet they wrote: “Per management: You cannot STACK a +2 on a +2. Go ahead, roast us.”

Naturally, the Tweet has gone viral, racking up over 8k quotes and almost 13k likes. 

One player asked a question to get ultimate clarity on the +2 rules. Uno responded: “No. When a +2 is played the next player must draw 2 cards and lose their turn. They cannot stack.”

Someone else wrote: “So y’all don’t know the rules to your own game”.

Uno really cleared things up too, explaining that management actually signed off on the Tweet to ensure they didn’t need to delete it later.

So the next time you play Uno and put down a +2, the player has to draw two cards and skip their go. 

It’s gonna take a while to get used to these new rules, and I’m not sure how well they’re going to go down in households across the world.

But Uno did take time out of their day to confirm that really, it probably doesn’t matter. In response to the question ‘yes I can. Who’s going to stop me?’, they said: “literally no one”. 

So either follow the rules, or don’t. You are in charge of your own Uno destiny…
