It's a lot of fun once you get some practice, however, and quickly becomes vaguely addictive. | Set is a fun intellectual game, but is difficult at first, even for talented youth, because it requires very specific pattern recognition skills, rather than just academic smarts.

Set is a card game played with a special deck. Each card has symbols on it, with four features: number, shading, color, and shape. Cards are dealt out 12 at a time, and the goal is to be the first person to find a "set" in the 12 cards. Sets are made up of three cards for which, on each feature, the cards are either all the same or all different. For more details on gameplay, use the above link.
