Game Daze Park Place Mall Employee Recommendation, January 2011

Janae -

Set is a great game that is fun for both individuals or groups. The goal of Set is to collect the most sets. Sets are made up of three cards that are similar in either color, shape, shading, and/or number. To play, cards are laid out for everyone to see. Players look through the cards until they see a set. Once they do, they call out “Set” and take the cards, which are then replaced. Game play continues until all cards have been laid out, and all available sets have been collected. The player with the most sets is the winner.

Because Set uses shapes, numbers, and color instead of words, the game is perfect for families of all ages, including children who may not be old enough to read well. At the same time, however, Set provides players the opportunity to exercise their brains through pattern recognition. Set requires players to identify patterns and groups quickly, without giving any single person a definite advantage. This makes the game challenging and fun, while being simple enough for anyone to play.
