    Excellent family game

    My kids loved this game. It's more challenging than it might seem at first glance, thus keeping the boredom level low for adults, yet easy enough for my 8-year-old to master. Making the required matches involves lots of thought on several levels for each round. An intelligent game that makes for good interaction between players.

    A Game That Keeps You Coming Back for More!

    SET is one of those games that keeps you coming back, even long after you've "mastered" it. The fact that everyone plays at the same time keeps it interesting, and the game definitely keeps you on your toes. Its so fast paced and so much fun. My daughter's beat my husband and I every time. Great game for the entire family and makes a gwonderful gift for teachers. SET also travels well!

    Great Card Game for All Ages

    I lost several times playing this with my nine year old niece. I also won this ten times in a row against my husband. In conclusion, this is a great card game for everyone in the family to play.

    Learning has never been so fun

    Great game for all ages. Need to help out younger kids at first to understand the concept. My son is 5 and he can find some of the more difficult sets now on his own. Teaches stratedgy, logical thinking, sorting, all sorts of great math and analytical skills. Not to mention it is a blast to play!

    Great for kids and adults

    This is a game that keeps your mind active. The kids love it. I saw my kids play it elsewhere and now they love to bring it out and teach other adults and kids to play. My son is 13 and gifted, and it is fun for him to see how sharp and quick his mind is. Everyone can learn and play and it is so portable, it is good for quick fun anytime.

    Great math skill practice

    This game of patterns is an excellent math-building activity. Fun to play as a group or solitaire.

    FAMILY FUN, FUN, FUN!!

    We were introduced to this from my daughter's Critical Thinking Class and we all love it! Whenever two of us start a game, everyone else just joins in. Even though the younger kids (6 & 9) had a tougher time catching on, once they figured it out, they always want to be a part of the fun in the end.

    Great Game! Family loves the challenge!

    This game is one of those that takes practice. The more you play it the better you get at it. It's a great memory game and recognition game. It really helps perception and logic. Don't get discouraged... keep playing!

    SET: The Family Game of Visual Perception

    My whole family loved it. We played it at Christmas. It is fast paced yet requires some skill and competitiveness. The instructions weren't very clear but once we practiced playing a couple of times the instructions began to make sense. The age of the people who played,understood what to do and liked it where male and female between 20yr. and 49yrs and varied from a school teacher, maintenance person to a captain in the military. I believe This game really makes you think and most any one can play it. We even had my granddaughter involved who is 8 by keeping score because it's pretty fast going. It's lot of fun when you have a group to play too.

    A reviewer

    This deceptively simple game is loads of fun for my friend's daughter, my daughter and I. Ages range from 8 to 50. It takes only a few minutes to learn and actual games don't go on forever. This would be a good one to carry around for dead times in restaurants, doctors' offices, etc. However, you'll pull it out just to play for fun, too. Great game.
