Weird messages at end of game

Like another reviewer, I find the messages at the end of each game off-putting. I just finished a game, ending with a new high score, and at the top there was a banner that said "Don't be discouraged, try again." I'd rather have no message at all than these "encouraging" messages. (I looked in the game's settings to see if there was a way to turn that off, but the settings area is pretty bare-bones and there was nothing about this there.)

More, Please

I like the game Set a lot. I love being able to play it on my phone wherever. I’ve been spending my time analyzing the mathematics of it. I’ve been modeling it as a 3 or 4 dimensional torus, and a set is any straight line within it.I wish that the app explained what all the different games are. For Rediscovery, Marathon, and Arcade, it feels like I’m just playing regular Set as fast as I can, and then it stops at some point, because I can’t figure out what the rules are precisely.I got really into Set when I found it on the New York Times crossword puzzle page. It gives you four games of Puzzle, 2 basic and 2 advanced. With the basic pack, it picks one attribute to keep constant, but it changes from day to day for variety. In this app, the basic pack always has all the cards have a solid pattern. I really wish they could change that up randomly, because it doesn’t change the gameplay at all, but it does give you opportunity to see different sets. And variety is fun. I’d love it if there could be a shuffle button to rearrange all the cards. It’s a nice tool when I am stuck, and I use it all the time on the nytimes page.

Wish it had a vertical mode

Love the game of set. I’ve been playing it since I was a kid in the optimal card format. Having an app is handy for solo play. I did find all the game descriptions buried in the settings somewhere. That helped. Having them more easily findable would be good. But what I really want is to be able to rotate the game and play 3 cards across and 4 down and be able to play one handed. In horizontal mode you really have to have two hands unless maybe you have gigantic hands.

Great game & good app

Set is a fantastic game. It may seem hard at first, but be persistent. I've taught the game to many people and they are all hooked.The app itself has the basic game plus some other game modes like Arcade, Puzzle, and Marathon. For each game mode, you can choose a basic deck (easy) or the advanced deck (harder, more like the real game). I'm not giving the App 5-stars for two major shortcomings.1. The statistics can only track your best speed. More stats would make me play the game more often. Also, more stats would encourage players to use the app to exercise their brains. And they could see improvements on different factors beyond speed. Come on guys, give us more stats.2. There is a hint option. But the hint itself is hard to see with only a light border around the card-hint. Please make the border into a black, bold border . In fact, a border should also appear whenever I select a card. Currently, I can't tell which card has been selected so there are a lot of time-wasting taps.

Easy way to play a classic game

I’ve been playing SET for the last fifteen or so years, mainly as the card game, and it’s always been one of my favorites. I like the app a bit more, as the portability is unbeatable. There are some things to know, as the game, like all games, has a couple quirks. (Also, I only play Classic SET with the advanced deck.)First, there are not always sets in a given group of 12 cards, which can be frustrating if you’re new to the game. (1/33 chance, I believe.) If I don’t think there are any, I’ll start from the upper left and scan starting from card to right and all the way to end, repeating with next card (since any two cards have exactly one card that can make the three a set). Second, the way this app rewards with one, two, or three stars is intense! It takes some luck (i.e. no or almost no no set groups) to get top marks. It will take some practice to get even one star. My record is 9.6 seconds per set, but i average around 14 or 15.

Great pastime!

This is really a five star app except for the ads that keep popping up. Even though they are easy to ignore, it breaks the flow of the play. I play Set Puzzle a great deal to see how fast I can can find the 4 sets in the basic deck. It absorbs my mind and is just plain fun. I play it on the iPad and iPhone. Here are some improvements I’d like to see:—make the iPad start screen the same as the iPhone. —keep track of all my scores and let me see how I’m doing in a variety of ways: for example how many games were under 1.5 seconds, 2 seconds, etc. Graph my performance over the session (relaunch). Graph my performance for the week, etc. I sure you can come up with some great ways to show performance. I think if you did this, the game would be even more fun to play against myself and by being able to email the performance stats friends could share their performance with each other. Keep up the good work.

Needs multiplayer

This app is fine as a rudimentary set game, but so much of the fun of playing is playing against other people. It’s beyond my comprehension why there couldn’t be a multi-player mode wherein, as soon as you click on a set, a little screen pops up asking which player to credit the set, which the player who got the set can click, after which it returns to gameplay with three new cards. Without that functionality it’s seriously stunted in what it can do.

Does anyone own the rights to this app? Change it!

Love the card game. Love the game as it appears in the app. Hate hate hate the discouraging messages at the end of play. I end each game feeling like an idiot. And a lot of my friends are too dumb even to play the game lol — yet I end up feeling like a pathetic loser. I think I did pretty well and the app tells me “Don’t give up!” I have a good time playing and the app tells me “Persevere and get it done!” like I just slogged through some difficult and boring task. How hard would it be to either take all these messages away and say nothing OR say something encouraging like “Way to go!”? The card game that sold the rights might be able to prevail on the developers who have probably moved on to other things. As a teacher I can’t even recommend this to my students for fear of discouraging them. Get it together, Set! Try harder!

Love playing, but could use ONE improvement.

This is very well done — a great and authentic version of the card game. But, I would love to see one improvement over the card game. Why not program it so the player is told (if s/he wants to be) when there are no sets? This would make the app even better than the card game.

Love hate relationship with the app

This app is great except for one thing that was removed about a year ago. There used to be the option in the settings that would make it so there was always a set out on the board, sure it may seem cheap to those who have played the physical card game, but it was great for playing on the app. Now that that is no longer an option the game can get stuck throwing out cards with no sets and killing an otherwise perfect round! It is also helpful for those learning to play the game. So basically what I’m trying to say is, great app, but bring back the old options!
