UNO, the popular card game known for its spirited competition and wild rules, has announced the release of UNO Flex, the latest version of the game. UNO Flex plays like regular UNO, but with the addition of Flex Cards, which have two sides that allow players to change the color or action of a card.
Flex Cards offer players the option to "flex" between a primary and secondary color, adding a new element of strategy to the game. Action Cards also add an element of surprise, with a second, more powerful alternative to the indicated action. For example, the "flex" option on a Draw 4 card allows the card user to choose which player will draw 4 cards.
Power Cards determine whether players can use the "flex" side of their Flex Cards. This added layer of gameplay keeps excitement high and power shifting throughout the game.
UNO Flex is the perfect addition to family game nights during the colder months and can be purchased nationwide at Target and Amazon.
