Uno. The children's game we all know and hate. The original destroyer of friendships. You think you know your friends, and then BOOM, they make you draw four cards AND change the suit. Monsters, each and every one of them.
But, Uno also harbors a deeper, darker secret: it is a gateway into the devastatingly bleak Assassin's Creed franchise.
The Evidence:
Also, Assassin's Creed.
Ever notice the strange, evocative symbols in the corners of Uno cards? Let's take a quick look.
Now, what other game series has symbols that are crucial to the plot?
Remember when I said to remember that thought? Here's your chance:
To draw an even closer connection to Assassin's Creed, I believe that Uno has been rereleased, updated, and followed up on even more times than the Assassin's Creed games. This is an impressive feat that can only be rivaled by EA Sports' classic WWE titles. Thus providing an indelible link between Assassin's Creed and Uno.
For the coup de grace, let's take a look outside of the games. I know this is a bit atypical, but I believe that the results warrant further investigation.
Let's take a look at two very interesting metascores:
If your children start playing Uno, they'll be Assassins before you know it.
I rest my case, your honor.

Ever notice the strange, evocative symbols in the corners of Uno cards? Let's take a quick look.
This last symbol is very circular, which reminds me of a certain object from another series, hang onto that thought.
Now, what other game series has symbols that are crucial to the plot?
Remember when I said to remember that thought? Here's your chance:
A circular object. Hm, what a coincidence.
What do you know, Assassin's Creed.

Let's take a look at two very interesting metascores:
You'll notice that if you add one to Uno, you get Dos. Dos, in English, is two. Do you know what game is included in the Ezio Collection? Assassin's Creed II (II is Roman for two btw).
If your children start playing Uno, they'll be Assassins before you know it.
I rest my case, your honor.
