Merle Robbins, who invented the popular card game Uno with several family members, died at the Good Samaritan Hospital Saturday. He was 72 years old.

The Official Uno Rules states that after a card is drawn the player can discard it if it is a match, or if not, play passes on to the next player. The other type is where players continue to draw cards until they have a match, even if it is 10 times. The game continues until a player has one card left. The moment a player has just one card they must yell âUNO!â. If they are caught not saying âUnoâ by another player before any card has been played by other players, the player must draw two new cards.
