Ever wondered why games like PUBG (Player’s Unknown Battleground) and Fortnite are growing in popularity? It isn’t because they are “rich” graphics-wise nor do they bring astonishing or great storyline. It is none other than the fact that they are online. Prior to this era, offline gaming has been what everyone was playing. But things have changed, and a lot of developers are beginning to realize that the future is online.

UNO is a card game similar to crazy eights and it’s played with specially printed cards that have astonishing colors. To play the game, you’ll need to deal each players seven cards.

Players each take turn placing the appropriate card on top of the discard pile and whoever gets rid of all his cards first becomes the winner.
