Solo: an European alternative to Uno

It is practically the same game with slightly different design and cards. There are several localized boxes across Europe.

Or simply reject proprietary clones all together and go back to the OG public domain versions: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mau-Mau_(card_game)

FIY: this is also why Uno corporate gets its panties in the a that people are playing their game wrong. Once people realise any card can have any function the illusion falls.

As a kid I could never remember the rules (it was called Makao here) whereas the moment I saw Uno I knew kow to play it.

Usability matters.

Ah the Amigo games! They are very good but the boxes look dated. I like Llama and Halli Galli.

That is their appeal :) Solo on the beach for some reason is more aesthetically pleasing than Uno

I have a box of Ena too but I do not remember where I bought it. As far as I remember the cards set is slightly different but yeah, basically the same game
