About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for an extra dose of fun with DOS, the evolution of the classic UNO! If you enjoy card games that get straight to the point, with easy-to-grasp rules that guarantee good laughs and that pleasant tension, DOS is for you. The objective is simple: be the first to get rid of all your cards each round. On your turn, you play cards by matching their number to the cards exposed in the center. But pay attention, the magic happens when you can combine two cards from your hand to sum up to the desired number! And if luck smiles upon you and you match both number AND color? Then the game heats up: you can play extra cards and even make opponents draw more. Oh, and don't forget the golden rule: shout "DOS!" when only two cards are left in your hand. Failing to do so can cost you dearly (and more cards!). Each round, whoever empties their hand scores points for the cards remaining in others'. The first to reach 200 points takes the victory! It's a fast-paced game, ideal for livening up any gathering, whether with family or friends. The complexity is low, but the strategy of when to use your cards and when to risk a combination requires a bit of thinking. Perfect for those seeking a light experience, but with that competitive edge we love.
