Getting Started Tutorial

Open UNO directly from Telegram by finding the bot or tapping a game link shared by a friend. You can also access it through a web browser on any device — desktop, tablet, or mobile.

When opening from Telegram, your account is created automatically using your Telegram profile. You can also sign up with email or through OAuth providers (Google, etc.).

Your profile includes a display name, avatar, level, and XP progress. New accounts receive a starting balance of Coins to play their first games.

The main navigation has these key sections:

• Home — start games, see active tournaments, and view your balance.
• Quests — daily and weekly challenges that reward bonus Coins and XP.
• Leaderboard — see how you rank against other players.
• Profile — view your stats, match history, level progression, and settings.

1. 1On the Home screen, tap the Play button.
2. 2Select Classic Mode for your first game (recommended).
3. 3Choose a bet amount. Start with the minimum bet to learn the ropes.
4. 4You will enter matchmaking. The system finds 2-7 opponents at a similar skill level.
5. 5Once enough players are ready, a 5-second countdown begins and the game starts.

During the game:

• Your cards — appear at the bottom of the screen. Playable cards are highlighted.
• Tap a card — to play it. It must match the top discard by color, number, or symbol.
• Draw button — if you have no playable cards, tap the draw pile to take a card.
• Color chooser — when you play a Wild card, a color picker appears. Tap the color you want.
• UNO button — press it when you have one card left!
• Timer — you have 20 seconds per turn. A visual indicator shows your remaining time.

After the game ends:

• Winner — takes the pot (all bets minus 5% house fee) and earns bonus XP.
• All players — earn XP based on participation, with more for longer games.
• First win of the day — your first daily win awards an extra XP bonus.
• Level up — when your XP reaches the threshold, you level up and unlock rewards.
