Set Game 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.

Here are the Rules for the Set Game - from Wikipedia

Several games can be played with these cards, all involving the concept of a set. A set consists of three cards which satisfy all of these conditions:

1. They all have the same number, or they have three different numbers.
2. They all have the same symbol, or they have three different symbols.
3. They all have the same shading, or they have three different shadings.
4. They all have the same color, or they have three different colors.

The rules of Set are summarized by: If you can sort a group of three cards into "Two of ____ and one of _____," then it is not a set.

Given any two cards from the deck, there will be one and only one other card that forms a set with them. One example of a set would be these three cards:

1. One red striped diamond
2. Two red solid diamonds
3. Three red open diamonds

In one game, the dealer lays out cards on the table until either twelve are laid down or someone sees a set and calls "Set!" The player who called "Set" takes the cards in the set and the dealer continues to deal out cards until twelve are on the table. If a player sees a set among the twelve cards, s/he calls "Set" and takes the three cards, and the dealer lays three more cards on the table.

It is possible that there is no set among the twelve cards; in this case, the dealer deals out three more cards to make fifteen dealt cards, or eighteen or more, as necessary. This process of dealing by threes and finding sets continues until the deck is exhausted and there are no more sets on the table. At this point, whoever has collected the most sets wins.

The Set Game has been on Amazon's Top 100 Best Seller List for over 3 years now. It would appear that this game has what it takes to go the distance!
