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

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.
Love this game! July 7, 2008
This is a fun "pass the time" kind of game. You can do it yourself or get lots of people involved.
Great Mind Game! June 21, 2008
My family loves the game! We became addictive after the first round. My kids, 10 and 13, love a lot of mind games and this is definitely one of them. Great educational value too!

This has to one of the most simple yet intelligent games to play - as you have to think multi dimensionally - colors - shapes - numbers

Pros: Flexible player numbers (from one to many, especially if you accommodate team play), allows all players to constantly be playing, portable, and simple to explain but hard to master.
Cons: Plastic case could be hinged or otherwise latch close; the cards fall out very easily in a backpack.
