Requirements

  • 2-4 players
  • UNO cards
  • 2 dice

Directions

  1. Roll the dice and add the two numbers that were rolled together.
  2. Pass out 2 cards to each player.
  3. The players each add their cards; whoever is closest to the total number on the dice wins the round and keeps his/her cards. The other players put their cards in a discard pile.
  4. After all cards have been dealt, the players add up their cards.
  5. The player who has the most cards is the winner.

Options
Dice and cards could be multiplied together instead of adding.
