Pocket Gamer: Simple card games work pretty well on mobile phones, as long as they get two things right. The controls and the multiplayer.
Luckily, Gameloft's Uno HD manages to get both of those things pretty much spot on for Xperia Play. But if you're looking for a single-player experience, you'll be better off somewhere else.
CalmDownTom says, "I love card games… and solitaire…. and patience… and basically anything that involves a bit of thinking a bit of luck and doesn’t require very quick reactions. So when I was given Uno I was excited. At that price and in HD quality it looked like I was going to have great time playing. I must admit I did not know the rules of the game but that is probably true for most players. I mean how many people know how to play Uno?"
This week’s ‘Deal of the Week’ promotion on Windows Phone 7 is the successful UNO HD. Original launched alongside the Windows Phone 7 handsets, UNO HD is now available at a reduced price for one week only.
WpCentral - Uno is one of those games whose rules are known nearly universally. Between the simplicity of learning the rules and strategy, and the flexibility of the game to handle small groups or large, Uno is one of the most popular games of all time. Card games translate extremely well to the small screen; the user interface is easy to replicate, and the graphics required for a game like Uno HD don’t even begin to tax the phone’s hardware.
