Card game:Deluxe Uno

Originally developed in 1971, Uno applies a specialized card deck to the basic principles of Crazy Eights. The game was a word-of-mouth hit and has continued to be a sales success. Its popularity is evidenced by themed card versions--Barbie Uno, Family Guy Uno, and Notre Dame Uno (the Indiana university, not the Paris cathedral), for example--and electronic versions for Xbox and Nintendo platforms.
