<p>So according to <a href="https://www.coololdgames.com/card-games/shedding/uno/show-em-no-mercy/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Cool Old Games</a> the new UNO Show 'Em No Mercy game <strong>allows for stacking Draw Cards</strong>.</p>
<p>Someone asked a question in the comments there and I have been wondering the same.</p>
<p>It seems clear to me that you are <strong>allowed to stack</strong> <code>Draw 2</code>, <code>Draw 4</code>, <code>Wild Draw 6</code>, and <code>Wild Draw 10</code> cards.</p>
<p>But can you <strong>stack</strong> <code>Reverse Draw 4</code> cards as well?</p>
<p>And if so, would the <strong>reverse effect activate</strong>?</p>
<p>Perhaps someone who owns the game and has access to the manual can chime in.</p>

# Stacking Reverse Draw 4's in UNO Show 'Em No Mercy?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2023-10-12)

So according to [Cool Old Games](https://www.coololdgames.com/card-games/shedding/uno/show-em-no-mercy/) the new UNO Show 'Em No Mercy game **allows for stacking Draw Cards**.

Someone asked a question in the comments there and I have been wondering the same.

It seems clear to me that you are **allowed to stack** `Draw 2`, `Draw 4`, `Wild Draw 6`, and `Wild Draw 10` cards.

But can you **stack** `Reverse Draw 4` cards as well?

And if so, would the **reverse effect activate**?

Perhaps someone who owns the game and has access to the manual can chime in.

Yes, I would say you can, since the `Wild Reverse Draw 4 Card` is (as you can tell by its name) a "Draw card".

The [UNO Show 'Em No Mercy Rules](https://service.mattel.com/instruction_sheets/HVW18-Eng.pdf) states:

“With just two players this card skips the other player and makes YOU draw 4 cards! You may use the stacking rule to send the penalty back to the other player.”

Meaning you must play a Draw 4 card or higher to avoid drawing 4 cards.
