Very similar to the XBLA version. Well polished, with good gameplay. It costs less then an actual Uno deck, and you get online play as well. I'd definitely recommend it to Uno fans.

Which also makes it a memory hog. If you have trouble with it crashing, reboot your phone to clear out memory. Reminds me a lot of the Xbox version. Very similar style and feel.

Didn't know you were not allowed to put 2 cards if you had two three's for example. Haven't tried online play yet, though I see the option, but so far it looks like a polished game.

Gameloft seems to target that portion of the market though, they rarely go out on a limb from what I've seen. They market toward owners who will gladly pay for well recognizable titles or clones thereof. In this case, the $8 is probably in part due to paying licensing fees. As a business, I suppose it's their choice to make. All I can do is echo the sentiments above… it looks nice, but $8 is rather silly.

I just took on someone named 666 not much more than 15 minutes ago.
