Objective for UNO Disney 100

The objective of UNO Disney 100 is to play all of the cards from your hand before the other players.

Setup for UNO Disney 100

  • Choose a player to be the dealer. They will shuffle all of the cards together.
  • The dealer deals seven cards face down to each player. You can look at your own cards, but you shouldn’t show them to the other players.
  • Place the remaining cards facedown in the center of the table to form the Draw Pile.
  • Flip over the top card from the Draw Pile and place it next to the Draw Pile face up. This card is the beginning of the Discard Pile. If the card you flipped over is an Action card, you will ignore its effect and flip over the next card from the Draw Pile.
  • The player to the left of the dealer starts the game. Play moves clockwise/left to start the game.

Playing UNO Disney 100

On your turn you will try to play a card from your hand to the Discard Pile. To play a card it has to match one of the following criteria:

  • Color
  • Number
  • Symbol

If you have a card in your hand that matches one or more of those criteria, you can play it to the Discard Pile. If you played an Action card (anything other than a number card), you will take a special action. For details check out the corresponding section below. Play will then pass to the next player in turn order.

Playing a Card in UNO Disney 100
The top card on the Discard Pile is a yellow seven. An example of some cards you could play are shown at the bottom. The green seven could be played because it matches the number. The yellow nine could be played because it matches the color. The final three cards could be played because they are wild.
Matching a symbol
The top card on the Discard Pile is a Reverse card. The next player could choose to play their own Reverse card because it matches the symbol of the card on the top of the Discard Pile.

Should you have a card in your hand that you can play, you can choose not to play it. In this case you will treat the rest of your turn like you didn’t have a card in your hand that you could play.

If you do not have a card that you can play to the Discard Pile, you will draw the top card from the Draw Pile. If this new card can be played, you can play it immediately. This new card is the only one that you can play, even if you have another card in your hand that you can play. Otherwise you will add the card to your hand.

If the Draw Pile ever runs out of card, you will shuffle the Discard Pile to form a new Draw Pile.

After you have drawn a card and either played it or added it to your hand, your turn ends. Play passes to the next player in turn order.

Cards of UNO Disney 100

Number Cards in UNO Disney 100

Number

Number cards do not have any special action in the game. You may only play a number card if it matches the color or number of the top card on the Discard Pile.

Draw Two card in UNO Disney 100

Draw Two (+2)

When you play a Draw Two (+2) card, the next player in turn order has to draw two cards from the Draw Pile. The next player also loses their turn.

You can play a Draw Two on top of another Draw Two or on a card that matches its color. You cannot play a Draw Two card on another Draw Two card to avoid having to draw the two cards.

Reverse card in UNO Disney 100

Reverse

A Reverse card changes the direction of play. If turn order was passing clockwise, it will now pass counterclockwise. If it was moving counterclockwise, it will now pass clockwise.

Reverse cards can be played on top of other Reverse cards or on cards that match their color.

Skip card in UNO Disney 100

Skip

When a Skip card is played, the next player in turn order loses their turn.

You can play a Skip card on top of another Skip card or on cards that match its color.

Wild Card in UNO Disney 100

Wild

A Wild Card matches every other card in the game. Therefore you can play it at any time. When you play a Wild card, you will choose the color for the Discard Pile. You can choose any of the four colors. This includes keeping the color the same as it was before you played the Wild card.

Wild Draw Four card in UNO Disney 100

Wild Draw Four (+4)

The Wild Draw Four (+4) card can be played on any card since it is wild. There is one exception though. You can only play a Wild Draw Four if you have no cards in your hand that match the current color of the Discard Pile. Wild cards count as matching the color of the Discard Pile.

Since the Wild Draw Four is wild, you will choose the color of the Discard Pile. You can choose any of the four colors including the color it was before you played the Wild Draw Four.

When you play the Wild Draw Four the next player in turn order has a decision to make.

Playing a Wild Draw Four
A Wild Draw Four was played to the Discard Pile. The previous top card on the Discard Pile was a red one. The next player in turn order has to choose whether they will accept the play of the card, or if they are going to challenge it.

First they can accept the play of the card. In this case they will draw four cards from the Draw Pile and they will lose their turn.

Challenging a Wild Draw Four

Otherwise they could choose to challenge you playing the Wild Draw Four.

If they choose to challenge your play of a Wild Draw Four, you must show them your entire hand. They will check the cards in your hand to see if you played the Wild Draw Four (+4) correctly. They will compare the cards against the color of the Discard Pile before you played the Wild Draw Four.

If you do not have any cards in your hand that match the Discard Pile’s color, you played the card correctly. Due to the failed challenge, the challenger now has to draw six cards (instead of four) and loses their next turn.

Playing a Wild Draw Four correctly
The player that played the Wild Draw Four card did not have a red card in their hand. Therefore they played the Wild Draw Four correctly. The challenging player now has to draw six cards.

If you did have a card in your hand that matches the Discard Pile’s color, you played the card incorrectly. For playing the card incorrectly, you will have to draw four cards instead of the challenger. The challenger also doesn’t lose their next turn.

Playing a Wild Draw Four incorrectly
The player that played the Wild Draw Four had a red card in their hand. Therefore they played the card incorrectly. They will have to draw the four cards instead of the challenging player.
Wild Mickey Movie Madness card in UNO Disney 100

Wild Mickey Movie Madness

This card is exclusive to UNO Disney 100.

When you play a Wild Mickey Movie Madness card you will choose another player. You will then choose a movie from Disney’s first 100 years. The player you chose has to name four characters from the movie you chose. If they correctly name four characters, nothing happens. If they are unable to name four characters from the movie, they have to draw four cards from the Draw Pile.

The Wild Mickey Movie Madness card is also a Wild so you will choose the color of the Discard Pile. You can choose any of the four colors including the color it was before you played the Wild Mickey Movie Madness card.

Calling UNO

When you only have one card left in you hand, you are close to winning the game. To alert the other players that you are close to winning, you need to call out “UNO”. You need to do this as quickly as possible.

Only one card left in hand
This player only has one card left in their hand. They should call out “UNO” as quickly as possible to avoid having to draw cards.

If another player catches you not saying UNO, you have to take two cards from the Draw Pile. They must call you out for not saying UNO before the next player starts their turn.

Winning UNO Disney 100

The first player to play the last card from their hand wins UNO Disney 100.

The Draw Two, Reverse and Skip will score 20 points each. Finally the Wild, Wild Draw Four and Wild Mickey Movie Madness cards will each score 50 points. The player will score a total of 226 points.

The first one to get to 500 loses the game they do not won the game.

In the normal rules the winner of each hand wins the game.

In the variant rules for UNO Disney 100 the winner of the hand collects points for all of the cards in the other players' hands. In this case the first player to score 500 points wins the game.

In some versions of UNO there is a variant to the scoring rules. The UNO Disney 100 version does not mention this rule at all in the instructions. In the versions of UNO that do have the rule, players collect points for the cards left in their own hands. The game ends when one player has collected 500 points. All of the players then compare the points they collected during the game. The player that earned the least points in the game, wins the game.
