UNO Wild Twists Playing Cards is a standard deck of 52 playing cards for a number of classic card games. However, in typical UNO fashion, each Wild Twists Playing Cards deck also includes eight special Wild Cards to help take game night to the next level.
“Expanding UNO into playing cards marks another category of gaming that UNO has explored in recent years, and feels like a natural evolution to amplify gameplay,” said Ray Adler, Global Head of Games, Mattel. “This twist on UNO is another milestone on our journey to innovate in new areas of culture and a testament to our brand purpose to become more inclusive.”
Each Wild Card features a different way to change up the game. While there are Wild Cards for each individual suit, there are also extra Wild Cards to represent multiple suits at once. The “Red Wild Card” can represent any Heart or Diamond card a player may need, while the “Black Wild Card” can stand in for any Club or Spade.
UNO Wild Twists Playing Cards also exclusively includes the instructions for “Wild Race,” a fast-paced card game that can only be played with this deck.
The launch of UNO Wild Twists Playing Cards marks the first time that UNO has entered the playing card market. The UNO brand continues to introduce new ways to play the classic game, including the unpredictable UNO All Wild™ game and a venture into the collectibles category with the UNO Ultimate™ game.
Recent expansions into online gameplay, art and fashion collaborations, the NFT community, and the first-ever UNO Championship Series Invitational Tournament to culminate the UNO brand’s 50 th anniversary last year continue to encourage fans everywhere to celebrate their love of the game.
UNO Wild Twists Playing Cards will be available for $2.99 at Target nationwide starting this month.
