Uno changes the rules every few years so that people have different ideas of which "house rules" are canon. Being "the game that people argue over" keeps it in the public consciousness much better than "that game that's kind of fun to play two rounds of occasionally"
Bullshit, uno and its precursor crazy eights is hands down the best card game ever created. We even played that in big groups in jail and had a blast. The house rules thing is bullshit, agree on something beforehand and play, no stress.
I will say that anyone who doesnt play stacking draw cards is losing out on a ton of fun though.
Stacking draw cards is in the rules book, at least for uno no mercy. It says you could only stack equal to or higher.
I'm actually stealing this as an explanation next time I'm at a house party and someone whips out the uno cards.
