CUNO is an excellent coffee table game with quick and repeatable gameplay. It's been a joy to share with friends and family. It's easy to set up and learn with lots of room to refine and improve your title placement strategy.
A quick game that is easy to learn and fun to play. Sometimes you don’t want a long drawn out game, this is one that gives you thoughtful strategy without all the rules to follow.
This game is quick to play and it turns out you can have A LOT more fun than I thought in 20 minutes!! I loved it! I think this game would be perfect for traveling because it’s small and the rounds are quick. I could even see myself playing it at a winery with friends. Next, I want to try and play with my 5 year old. I think he would love the game and pick it up quickly!
Our family absolutely LOVE this game. Our 8 year old son picked it up right away and had a blast…beating poor ol Dad in his first game! I would recommend this game for any age group. My wife and I have enjoyed casually playing with friends on couples games nights and with our son before bed as a wind down and to practice his math skills.
So much fun! My mom and I played tonight and we had the best laughs. It really made me think about my next move. I kicked her behind! Can’t wait to play with more of my friends. Love it!
Lots of fun as a two-player game. Looking forward to trying it with more players!
We are really enjoying this game. It is easy and fast to set up, and easy to play a few rounds whenever we want. It has become a frequent go-to option after dinner on a weeknight, as it is stimulating enough to entertain us while accessible enough to allow for conversation. A terrific alternative to sinking into our screens!
Love this game. Bonus, both times I have played, the opponents decided they needed their own copy. Easy to teach; it’s a fun competitive tile game.
We really enjoyed this game! Easy set up, easy to understand but fun to play! Kids could just play but adults can strategize to make more challenging to find ways to block opponents! Well done!
Excellent excellent excellent game! My family and friends absolutely CUNO! It is a hit on our home!
We are having fun playing this game. It is great with 2, 3 or 4 players! It is quick and easy to learn and has endless possibilities because of the playing of the tiles. I gave it 4 stars because it doesn't have as much strategy as I would like in a game, but its simplicity allows for quick learning and ease of play.
This game is so fun, we love it 😀 😍.
Excellent family night game. So easy to learn. We love it!
These games are great. Cuno is basically intuitive to learn, and Mrbls can be learned in under five minutes. Both are fun. I play these with my son for a quick game before bedtime or as part of a longer gaming session.
This is a game that everyone in my family has enjoyed playing! I love that it is strategic and family friendly at the same time.
We think this game is super fun and no learning curve Great for family game night for all ages. We bought it as a gift!
Interesting, fun game. Could use more of the numbered tokens, you often run out with two players, maybe even add a fifth and sixth set of tokens so more people can play.
Terrific game! I played it with my husband and we thought it was fun. Then I took it up to play with my parents - long-time bridge players - and they took it to another level! I never did win a game against them. Seemingly simple, Cuno is a serious strategy game!
Love it!From kids to adults it is fun.
Only draw back are the tiles are cardboard-like material so it is easy to ruin the edges/water stains etc. Would love to see an upgrade to the material of the tiles that is more sturdy!
Fun easy game to play. Not a big time sink which is what we needed.
great quick game, yet strategic
We love the game, and our friends and family are now ordering their own set.
I waited to do this review until I got the chance to play it with friends. Four of us played it today and we loved it! It was easy to play, and fun! One person wondered if there was a way to make it magnetic so the cards would connect with a click. We played about 10 games with a break for lunch. We are all grandparents and thought it would be a nice multigenerational game as well. I am really happy with this purchase!
Just received our game and LOVE it! It is great for my husband and I to play together because I feel I can compete without getting super frustrated. We look forward to trying it with more people.
This game rocks! Easy enough to learn and always something new Great for all ages!
Easy to learn and quick game.
played with neighbors...its a fun game
Our neighbors invited us over for dinner and they wanted to play dominoes. I told them I had just ordered a new game. After dinner, we played Cuno and we had so much fun. I have to try working on my strategy : I lost every game.
I love games that are casual enough to still chat and hang out with friends while we game. Absolutely loved Cuno to enjoy a game while also enjoying conversation and time with friends. Very easy to learn and also play with kids! I bought one for myself and one as a gift.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make a connection with just a blank side?
No. All tile placements must create at least one valid ring connection. However, it's allowed to match a blank edge to another blank as long as the tile also makes a complete ring elsewhere on the board.
I ran out of point tokens for a ring connection. What should I do?
If you run out of the correct point tokens, you can stack other tokens that add up to the same value. For example, use a 1 and a 2 token stacked together in place of a 3.
Why do I need to remove tiles at the start of the game?
Removing a number of tiles equal to the number of players minus one ensures that the first player also places the final tile of the game. This balances the number of turns, giving every player an equal chance to make ring matches.
