UNO was invented in 1971 by Merle Robbins, a barber from Reading, Ohio. Robbins created the game to resolve a dispute about the rules of Crazy Eights and initially sold copies of UNO from his barbershop.

Over Thanksgiving weekend in 1971, the game caught the attention of Robert Tezak — owner of a funeral parlor in Joliet — who became hooked. The following year, Tezak made a deal with Robbins to take over UNO, and International Games was formed.

Following decades of massive success, International Games was acquired by Mattel in 1992, and UNO has remained a global phenomenon ever since. According to Mattel, approximately 17 decks are sold every minute worldwide.

Today, UNO is available in more than 80 countries and has expanded to include numerous themed editions featuring popular franchises, including this special edition based on the hit television series "The Office."

The Office was an American mockumentary sitcom that aired on NBC from 2005 to 2013, spanning nine seasons and 201 episodes. Adapted from the British series of the same name, the show depicts the everyday work lives of office employees at the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company in Scranton, Pennsylvania.

The series featured an ensemble cast led by Steve Carell as Michael Scott, the well-meaning but clueless and insensitive regional manager. Other memorable characters include Jim Halpert (John Krasinski), Pam Beesly (Jenna Fischer), Dwight Schrute (Rainn Wilson), and many more unique personalities that created the show's distinctive workplace dynamic.

Known for its cringe humor, heartfelt moments, and documentary-style filming, The Office has become a cultural phenomenon that continues to gain new fans through streaming platforms years after its conclusion. Its unique blend of comedy and occasional poignancy has made it one of the most beloved and quoted television series of all time.

Setup: Each player is dealt 7 cards, and the remaining cards form a draw pile. The top card is turned over to start the discard pile.

Gameplay: Players take turns placing a card from their hand onto the discard pile. The card must match either the color or the number/symbol of the card on top of the discard pile. If a player cannot play a card, they must draw a card from the draw pile.

Special Cards:

• Skip Card: When played, the next person in line loses their turn.

• Reverse Card: Reverses the direction of play.

• Draw Two Card: Forces the next player to draw two cards and lose their turn.

• Wild Card: Allows the player to choose any color for the next player to match.

• Wild Draw Four Card: Allows the player to choose any color and forces the next player to draw four cards and lose their turn.

Winning: When a player has only one card left, they must yell "UNO!" If they don't and are caught, they must draw two cards. The first player to get rid of all their cards wins the round.

Office Edition Special Rule: Whoever drops all their cards LAST has to draw two cards with the Kevin's Famous Chili rule!
