How to play ONO: The object of the game is to get rid of all your cards by matching either colors or numbers and face patterns. Player turns proceed in the order indicated by the arrow at the left. Each player must either play a card that matches the color or pattern of the upturned card at right, play a special wild card, or draw a card if no matches or plays can be made. To play a card in your hand, point to it with the mouse arrow and click the mouse button. The card will be placed on the play stack (if legal) and the next player will try to make a match. Special cards include: Reverse: reverse the order of players' turns Skip: force the next player to skip a turn Draw2: force the next player to take two cards and lose a turn Wild: the player dealing this card may pick the active color Wild4: pick the active color and force the next player to draw four cards and lose a turn! This card may only be played if you cannot match the current color with a regular card. If you cannot play a card, click on the stack pile with the mouse. The card that is turned up may either be played (if legal) by clicking on the play pile or added to your hand by clicking on your cards. Thus, a drawn card may be played right away or saved. To pick the color for a wild card, click with the mouse on the desired color in the color box at the right. Note that because wild cards have no color until you choose, they may be matched with any other card, and you may choose to keep the same color in play.
