To start the turn, the player sitting next to the left of the dealer goes firs<\/a>t, and the play proceeds next clockwise. The players match cards and play them until one player gets to ride all his cards and the round ends.<\/gwmw><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On each player’s turn, players must play a card<\/a> that matches the top card’s color, number, or symbol from the remaining face-down cards in the discard pile. For example, if the top card is a blue 3, you can play any blue card or any card with the number 3 on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wild Cards<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The wild card can be played at any time and allows the current player to choose the next card’s color. The next player must then match that colour. When players play a wild card, they can choose the color that the next player has to match. This can help you get rid of other cards in your hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Skip Cards<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
