Cards with a fun twist!
on August 3, 2022

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an awesome deck of cards that was a great addition to our family game nights! It comes with the standard 52 playing cards and it also includes 8 special wild cards and a guide explaining what each one can be used for. This means that you can play all the traditional card games-regularly or with a twist-plus some super fun extra games. There is also a guide for a fun game to play with the wild cards. There are definitely endless possibilities with this one deck!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fun Idea at the Right Price

I'm not going to bury the lead here. I love this product, but I do have a couple complaints that keep it from being a perfect 5 out of 5.
What do you get?
This 60 card deck includes the standard 52 ( four traditional suits with cards Ace - King in each suit) as well as 8 wild cards. There are three types of wilds: suit specific, color specific, and wilds that can be any suit or rank.

How is it packaged?
There is no plastic shrink wrap here. As with most of their UNO products, the deck box is "sealed" with a small circle of tape. It is not very sticky, so the box is not damaged when opening it for the first time. The deck has a small paper ring that keeps the cards together within the deck. It's nice to see Mattel being plastic conscious.

Card Quality
The cards are paper with a linen finish. I actually like these cards better than their standard UNO deck. The lined finish gives the cards a nice feel and they have a pleasant snap-back when shuffling. A very surprising quality for only three dollars or so.

Design
The only thing keeping me from giving this a perfect 5 star rating is the card design. They did a very nice job on the court cards. I enjoy their incorporation of the one eyed cards as well as the suicide king. They did very well with this. However, the Aces are quite lackluster. I like the UNO card format, but I wish the Aces had more design. It would have been nice to have a filigree pattern in the Ace of Spades at the very least. The wilds are fairly plain as well. The card back is a fun design though.

Overall, I think the Wild Twists deck is a very fun idea, and I would like Mattel to continue using the UNO brand as much as possible.

No rules for go fish

Bought this soon as I found it. Back of box says special rules for Go Fish, but I'm here on the website and no instructions on how to incorporate the wild cards. Disappointed
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
