When coupled with nostalgia, novelty items can be a massive hit among consumers, and [Uno's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uno-x-miu-miu) mini cards are proving just that. Recently, the brand launched a new deck that stands only 1.75-inches by 1.25-inches. No bigger than the size of one's thumb, these cards can be packed into one's pocket or purse for easy traveling, and the novelty of the miniature game as an extra level of excitement.

The adorably tiny game arrives complete with everything one might need to play. This includes the full deck of cards, a small box to hold everything together, and a set of instructions so that everybody can follow along. While the [miniature Uno set](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wind-and-sea-x-uno) isn't available everywhere, it can be purchased for $6 at [Urban Outfitters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-pie-mini-calzones).
