    Like Uno but don’t have three friends readily available to play, or the tangible card game in your game closet? Get Uno is a fun, free, downloadable version of the game that a single player can enjoy. Although this classic card game is usually a game of luck, this version allows you to track your moves in order to build strategies against three computer players.

    That’s what I like best about this game. To the right, the computer keeps track of everyone’s moves, highlighting your own. It’s a good thing, as the game play is very fast-paced. I’m not sure why the computer plays so quickly, but it does make it a little hard to follow. I believe that’s why the developers included the play tracker.

    Get Uno is a fair game and it’s not impossible to win, though just playing any card of the same color may not be that great of a tactic. It does require some thinking on your part and isn’t as mind-numbing as some free card games out there.

    The only negative I can give this game is the scrolling advertisements to the very right of the game screen. Every now and then, a pop-up would overtake my screen and the game play would freeze. But it is a free game, and such advertising normally ensues.

    Note: The game requirements say that this game will not work on Windows 7. But I downloaded and played it on Windows 7 with no problems.
