How to Play Drunk Uno
To play Drunk Uno, you'll need a standard Uno deck, drinks of your choice, and a few simple rules. Here's a brief overview of how to play:
- Shuffle the Uno deck and deal 7 cards to each player.
- The remaining cards are placed face down in a draw pile.
- The top card of the draw pile is turned over and placed beside it, face up, to start the discard pile.
- The player to the left of the player who drew the first card goes first.
- To play a card, you must match the color or symbol of the card on top of the discard pile.
- If you don't have a playable card, you must draw a card from the draw pile.
