Set is so easy a four-year-old can learn to play but challenging and exciting enough to make adults beg for "just one more round"! The object of the game is to identify a 'set' of three cards from twelve cards laid out on the table. A 'set' consists of three cards in which each feature is EITHER the same on each card OR is different on each card. The person with the most 'sets' at the end of the game is the winner.
