We're Snap Finger Click, a small independent studio that specialises in party games. We’ve previously worked with Ubisoft on Family Feud® and Trivial Pursuit Live! 2, and we took over the development of UNO™ last year. We’ve already delivered the UNO Party! Mania™ DLC to you, a Twitch Extension, a Happy Hour feature to give you free access to the game’s DLC, bug fixes ❤️‍🔥, and more.

Today, we released our biggest update for UNO™ yet, and we couldn’t be more excited to share all the new content with you:

**🔥 New DLC: UNO Show 'em No Mercy is Here! 🔥**

You asked, we listened! Show ‘em No Mercy has been by far the most popular request to add to UNO™. Prepare yourselves for the most cutthroat, chaotic, and ruthless expansion yet!

The Show 'em No Mercy DLC introduces a whole new level of mayhem to your games with its merciless ruleset, extreme stacking penalties, and a host of pain-inducing action and wild cards.

Here are just some of the rules you’ll need to master to survive to the end:

- Stacking is MANDATORY! If a Draw card is played, you can stack the penalty by playing your own Draw card of equal or higher value. The stack continues until a player can't play a Draw card and must draw the full accumulated penalty. Ouch!

- Eliminate players to be the last one standing! If a player's hand ever grows to 25 cards or more, they are immediately knocked out of the game. While you can still win by playing all your cards and yelling "UNO!", you can now also win by being the last one left in the game. Can you take out your opponents one-by-one?

- New cards to wreak havoc! Along with some massive new Draw cards (Draw 10, anyone?), you can now Skip Everyone to skip all other players and take another turn, Discard All to discard every card of a matching colour, or play the Wild Color Roulette card where the next player must draw cards until they find the colour of their choice.

- Even your numbered cards are out to get you! Play a 0, and all players must pass their entire hand to the next player in the current direction of play. Play a 7, and you MUST swap your entire hand with any other player of your choice. It’ll change the course of the game right up to the last moment when someone could ditch their huge hand and snatch a win from the player just about to call “UNO!”

Get ready for endless nights of intense grudges and monumental comebacks!

**The UNO Show 'em No Mercy DLC is available NOW on Steam!**

##### ✨ A Fresh Look, More Online Options, and a Brand New Coins System ✨

We've rolled out a major menu overhaul that not only gives the interface a sleek and streamlined look, but also introduces new features to make your online games easier to set-up and customise. We’re also welcoming a new Coins system that rewards you for every game you play, giving you full control over your cosmetics.

The key changes we've made include:

- Quickplay gets you into an online game faster! If you’re the type of player who doesn’t mind which flavour of UNO™ you play, then this is the feature for you. The new 'Quickplay' option lets you jump straight into any available online game. No need to pick a mode and limit your choice - just click and play!

- MyDesign your way! We’ve unified the MyDesign and Classic modes so you no longer have to pick a separate game mode to play online with your customised designs. But don’t worry if you prefer the Classic look, because you can now choose to see only your designs during a game.

- A new Coins reward system! We're introducing a new virtual Coins system that rewards you as you play and lets you control your collection. The more you play, the more you get, in the brand new in-game Store.

##### 🃏Two New House Rules Change Up the Game🃏

We're excited to introduce two brand-new house rules to UNO™:

- Skip n' Flip! You don't have to take that hit from a Draw card. If you're holding a matching coloured Skip or Reverse card, you can bounce that penalty over to the next player or push it back to th
