CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Customer Rating:
Summary: great combination of joy and education
Comment: My soon to be 5 year old boy love to play this game. It is a great game to keep him thinking and focused.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Wow. What a work-out for the brain!
Comment: This game is... both easy and difficult. There are four different categories for each card (shape, color, number, shading) and each category has three options. You have to identify sets that match in ALL four categories - either they have to be ALL the same in a category, or ALL different in a category.

So if they can be all green, all diamonds, but TOTALLY different in shading and number.

The person with the most sets at the end of the game wins, and they have suggestions for variations at their website.

Teaching yourself to recognize the categories is hard, but the rules are simple. I suspect that some people are just naturally going to find this game easier than others - it seems very much to be a "way your brain works" kind of game. That means it's certain to be a good levelling game because your kids might be better at it than you are - and all kids like to win because they WON and not because of chance or being allowed to win :)

Customer Rating:
Summary: A fun, but competitive game...
Comment: The game SET is really a diamond in the rough. With all of today's video games, talking this & that and animatronic do-dads, Set is a great source of entertainment for all.

General Commentary:
- Ideal for groups of small (1) to medium size (5 or so).
- I normally play in a group of 20 somethings

Benefits:
- Great for mind stimulation.
- Great for younger (learning colors, numbers, shapes, etc) and older kids alike

Caveats:
- With older "kids", the game can get a bit competitive
- At times, the game gets very close to a game of Hot Hands and it's a matter of who can get there faster -- with apprehension anytime anyone moves a muscle
- Not good for car rides or playing outside in potentially windy areas

Overall:
- The game is wonderful, but can get a bit competitive and a little addictive.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Not for everyone, but I love it!
Comment: If you're visually-oriented or good at "spacial reasoning," this game will likely be loads of fun for you. If your brain is wired such that you get headaches when thinking through those questions like "if this gear turns clockwise and this gear turns counter-clockwise, which way does this gear over here turn?," then you'll likely not like this game. There's an online version or two you can play to see if you'd like it before buying it. Even if you do buy it and don't like it, chances are that someone in your family or circle of friends will love it. I really do!

Customer Rating:
Summary: family fun-SET game
Comment: It is a game challenging your brain and quick reaction. Finding the "set" from all the cards is not only testing the brain also testing how fast you can get the cards before your rival gets them. The overall of the game is fun and educable, especially for family. I would recommend this game to other people if they are seeking the similar type of game.
