Card Game Like Uno

Unity Engine
1

I want to create a card game like UNO, where there is a card in play and the card plaid has to match the type of card on the table.

Who would I go about assigning different attributes to a card? Would I make several tags for each card?

There’s many ways to set up a ‘type’. I would not recommend relying on Unity Tags. My favorite way is to create an Enum.

Examples:

public class Card : MonoBehaviour
{
    public enum Type
    {
        Normal,
        Special
    }

    // can be assigned as a dropdown menu in the inspector
    public Type type;
}

public class OtherClass : MonoBehaviour
{
    public void CardComparisonFunction(Card card1, Card card2)
    {
        if(card1.type == card2.type)
        {
            Debug.Log("They're the same card type");
        }
    }

    public void DoAThingWithACard(Card card)
    {
        // do something special depending on what type it is
        switch(card.type)
        {
            case Card.Type.Normal:
                Debug.Log("Did a normal thing");
                break;
            case Card.Type.Special:
                Debug.Log("Did a special thing");
                break;
            default:
                Debug.Log("That was not a card.");
                break;
        }
    }
}
