All these years, we thought we couldn't end an UNO card game with Action cards. But the matter has finally been put to rest.
Now, we have the verdict from the horse's mouth.
In the digital age, who needs a rule book when you can directly ask UNO through Twitter:

What is interesting is that there is nowhere specifically mentioned in UNO's rule book about ending the game with Action cards. It is not even listed online.
For those in the dark, here's how UNO's Action cards look like. Playing these cards are essential in seriously fucking up your opponent's game-plan.
For instance, the wild cards and draw cards, when played, would force your opponent to pick cards based on the numbers displayed (and sometimes colours).
However, these can be thwarted through the skip and reverse cards. These five cards are what makes the UNO game thrilling so it's no surprise that over the years there has been an ongoing debate among players if the game can be won through Action cards.
Now, the 48-year-old debate can finally be put to end.
Hi Samitha! You can end on an action card, however, you can only play one card per turn.
— UNO (@realUNOgame) January 28, 2019Yes, you can end the game with an action card. If it is however, a Draw Two or Wild Draw Four card, the next player must draw the 2 or 4 cards respectively. These cards are counted when the points are totaled.
