FAQs
What makes UNO Liars different from classic UNO?
UNO Liars introduces a 'Liar's Card' mechanic where players can bluff about the card they are playing. If caught lying, they draw cards, but if they are telling the truth and are wrongly accused, the accuser draws cards.
Is this game suitable for young children?
The recommended minimum age is 7 years old. The basic rules are simple to grasp, but the bluffing strategy might be more intuitive for slightly older children and adults.
How many players can play UNO Liars?
UNO Liars can be played with a minimum of 2 players, and it is designed to accommodate larger groups as well.
Can people with color blindness play this game?
Yes, UNO Liars includes special graphic symbols on each card to help identify the colors, making it playable for individuals with various forms of color blindness.
What happens if I forget to say 'UNO!'?
If you forget to say 'UNO!' when you have one card left, and another player catches you before the next player takes their turn, you must draw two penalty cards.
Do I need to buy classic UNO to play this version?
No, UNO Liars is a complete, standalone game and does not require any other UNO decks to play.
What is the material of the cards?
The cards are made of paper.
Troubleshooting
Game won't start due to missing cards.
Ensure all cards are accounted for before starting. If a card is permanently lost, the game may still be playable, but the deck will be incomplete.
Confusion about when to play a 'Liar's Card'.
A 'Liar's Card' can be played at any time during a player's turn when they would normally play a card from their hand. The player then announces what they claim the card is (e.g., 'It's a Red 5').
Players are unsure how to handle accusations.
When you suspect a player has lied about a 'Liar's Card', you can challenge them. If they lied, they draw two cards. If they told the truth, you draw two cards. Remember to only challenge when you strongly suspect a lie.
Difficulty remembering to shout 'UNO!'.
Give other players a chance to catch you if you forget. If another player catches you before the next player takes their turn, you must draw two cards. Practice helps build this habit.
