When using a Wild Card, can we say the same colour as the current colour in the game?
E.g. If the current colour was red and my brother played a Wild Card and said the colour will stay red so that he can discard his red card and win. Is it the correct way?
I felt that a change of colour should have happened?
According to the official rules found via a google search 'uno rules' (emphasis mine):
Wild Card - When you play this card, you may change the color being played to any color (including the current color).
This means that when you play a Wild Card you can name the current color.
First of all, you don't have a turn after using a wild card.
Second, Your brother didn't violate any rules. If the going color is red and he used the wild card to keep the color to red only- there's no fault in that.
