Product Description
This award winning card game is for one or more players. It is recommended for ages six and above. The object of the game is to identify "sets" of three cards. Each card is unique in its four features; color - red, green or purple, symbol - diamond, squiggle or oval, shading - solid, striped or open, and number - 1, 2 or 3. A "set" consists of three cards on which each feature is either the same on all of the cards, or different on all of the cards. This game contains complete instructions for play, 81 cards, and a durable plastic carrying case.

Editorial Review
SET is a card game of quick recognition and deduction. Each card contains one of three symbols (squiggles, diamonds, ovals) in varying numbers (up to three), colors (purple, green, red), and degrees of shading. A dealer arranges 12 cards, face up, and the players--without taking turns--hastily scrutinize the images for logical "sets" of three cards linked by combinations of sameness or difference. It's not as complicated as it sounds: examples include a trio of paired ovals with increasing levels of shading between cards, or disparate symbols in different colors which increase in number on each card (card one has a green squiggle, card two a pair of purple ovals, card three a trio of diamonds). The trick is to keep calm while trying to make the rapid connections. The Darwinian nature of the game (remember: everyone plays simultaneously) is certain to cause some feistiness among more competitive players. --Tom Keogh

5 out of 5 stars Great mind game   August 17, 2008
This is an excellent thinking game. Finding patterns that are not obvious at first glance is great for encouraging problem solving skills. Besides being educational, this game is fun! I've been playing it since I was a kid and finally just bought my own set (no pun intended).


3 out of 5 stars Educational-not fun!!!!!   August 10, 2008
This "game" is truly only a deck of standard sized cards in a case. It was purchased by a very game playing family of four, and mom is the only one who somewhat likes it. It's not because it's too hard (once you get the hang of it), it's just not very entertaining. I've tried it with both kids and adults, and both groups would rather choose any other game in the house. We love most games and puzzles, and this one just didn't cut it. I'm really surprised with the number of positive reviews.


3 out of 5 stars Frustrating   August 1, 2008
This card game was given to my son when he was four years old. I tried to simplfy the instructions, and we were able to "play" a few games, but it was not very much fun. Now he is six, and we still don't enjoy this "game". Perhaps it takes a certain personality to actually have fun with SET. We have enjoyed games like Gobblet and Blokus much better.


5 out of 5 stars Great Mind Game!   August 1, 2008
A great way to exercise the mind. If you enjoy puzzles, visual stimulation or games that require more than just luck, this is for you! Enjoy!

(This games can be played with 1 or more people. I actually prefer playing it alone!)


5 out of 5 stars Stimulating game for thinkers   July 13, 2008
This is a terrific game - fun in a group, but also entertaining alone. It exercises the brain and can be addictive! It makes a great gift for children and adults alike.
