Card Game MATTEL Games UNO Flex — Shedding Card Game, Age 7+

MATTEL Games UNO Flex is a shedding card game for ages 7 and up that adapts the classic UNO gameplay with new flexible mechanics. Players take turns matching cards by number or colour or using special Power Cards and Flex Action Cards to change the flow of the round. The Flex mechanic allows a card to change its colour, enabling new matching possibilities and additional strategic choices during play. The set is designed for family and casual group play, offering short, repeatable sessions suitable for parties, game nights, and home entertainment.

Advantages

UNO Flex keeps core UNO rules while adding Flex Action Cards and Power Cards that introduce dynamic colour changes and new tactical options. The flexible colour feature increases interaction and unpredictability without complicating the basic shedding objective: be the first to discard all cards. Packaging and components are sized for comfortable handling by children and adults, and the rules are straightforward so new players can join quickly.

How to use

Shuffle the deck and deal the starting hand according to the rule sheet. On each turn, match the top discard by colour or number, or play a special Power Card or Flex Action Card to alter the current colour or force other effects. Use the Flex mechanic when allowed to change a card's colour and create new matches. Follow the standard UNO rule to call 'UNO' when you have one card left, and resolve Power Card effects immediately as described in the rule sheet.

Usage recommendations

For smoother play, place the rule sheet where all players can see it and keep a flat surface for discards. Suitable for mixed-age groups: supervise younger players as needed and allow a practice round to explain Flex Action Cards and Power Card interactions before competitive play.
