Quiddler Card Games for Kids - Playing Cards Word Games, Deck of Cards, Fun F...

Pros - Easy to learn and teach. The rules are actually in the back of the box already, it is that simple. - Fast to setup and play (less than 30 minutes). Actually there is no setup needed, just shuffle and show 12 cards, no need to deal any to the players. The gameplay doesn't have turns, it's just a racing game where whoever would be the 1st to find a set among the 12 cards would gain the point, so it's gonna be fast. - Small table space is enough to play. A table that can fit 12 cards is enough. Can definitely be played on an airplane table! - A bit addictive. You would always want try try it again after a game. - The game is replayable. You would always want to do better. When you weren't able to find a set, you are really focused to get the next one. If you found a set, it feels very satisfying. An endless cycle that doesn't feel samey at all and can definitely be played multiple times, you can even play it multiple times in a row without getting tired of it. - The game is not multiplayer solitaire. Both of you are racing to see a set! - Highly interactive and engaging. Perfect for groups! Cons - While the game is extremely simple, this is not a game you would want to play with your partner after a long day at work as the race creates tension and you need to have a clear and sharp mind, which might feel exhausting especially when you are already tired. Just play Tangram cooperatively. - The box is trash. The insert can't fit sleeved cards. The box is not the usual open-the-lid box but rather those like the cereal boxes, making it hard to get the cards inside.

Easy game, super fun, anyone can learn it in five minutes and it provides a ton of laughs and gets your brain working. Also great for traveling with! This is a perfect game to kill 30mins-1hr with a friend or a whole group of friends and family. Love it! One minor note is the box doesn’t hold up great, but we moved it into a little card tin so we don’t really mind.

Very fun game for a variety of ages and abilities. Compact to take with you when meeting others.

This is a fast and fun game. Easy to learn. Can be played with any number of players. Easy to transport.

We really enjoy Quiddler which for young and old is a fun to play and good for your brain involving spelling and counting. You can play with just 2 players or more and really stimulating. Can be played in a long haul plane ride or in the airport. At home on the beach. Or in the bed or where ever you are

This card game has been a family and friends favorite for years. I have ordered several decks over the years to give away as gifts, and as prizes in school. My career was as a college math professor, and I used these to demonstrate math concepts in class and Math Club. I also used them to play a fun game with 5 year olds. Often the 5 year olds can beat the adults! It's a game with simple concepts of pattern recognition, understanding "like" and "different", and other traits like shape, number and color. I especially like that it is not necessary to stick around through a whole game to have fun - you can jump in on any round. This too is great for kids. I highly recommend for anyone.

I love Set! It's been like 15 years since my first game and honestly, I don' think I'll ever get tired of this game. It is repetitive, but if you buy the game knowing the replay value, you'll find that is a pro, not a con. It's useful because the simple gameplay makes it an easy task for your hands to keep busy while allowing you to focus on the conversation if you're in a chatty mood, and to pretend to be thinking deeply if you have nothing to add to the current conversation. The best thing about Set to me is that it grows with you. Here's how Set has aged with me over the years: A teacher in elementary school had a copy that was a popular go-to game for many students. We were competitive so it helped us practice speed, coordination, and social skills. This game is small, slightly taller than a regular deck of cards so it generally fits in a purse/bookbag, making it great for middle and high school-ers with limited space/weight. Granted, I grew up during the days before most students had smart phones so things might be a bit different now... Anyway, I prefer Set to regular card games like BS, 13, ERS, and etc. because the rules do not vary based on who you are playing with aside from "is this round a let's-slam-our-hands-down-and-hand-on-bottom-wins kind of game or the polite I-called-Set-first kind of game?" because people either know how to play or don't. It's a great game to bond over, especially when everyone's brains are mush from homework and lessons. In college, I didn't have a copy, but I can tell you that simple and quick games like this are attractive to everyone in the room, even drunk people. You can even set up in public places like dorm lobbies to make new friends with similar interests when fellow students stop by to ask what you are playing - who knows, you might have a new study-buddy or future roommate! After college, it's been a great first game of the night for the the host(-ess) and early birds who are waiting on the rest of the attendees to arrive (-or finish grabbing/eating food) since people can jump in and out as they like. Also great as a drinking game! Very good way to chill out with friends who refuse to play epic/long/complicated games like Monopoly, Catan, Betrayal...etc. Nothing builds a bond quite like a competitive game of Set! Anyway, here are some other things worth considering: It's a decent budget gift. Group size is pretty much limited to the size of the table. Everyone must have a decent line of sight. I've played with like 12 people at once before. Color blind individuals may not enjoy this game unfortunately. My only other complaint is that my first purchased copy of Set came in the pictured box with a crumpled corner, like super fan-like crumples about 1 in x 1 in. I was amazed that the cards inside weren't ruined. Luckily I didn't have to ask for new copy because the cards were fine. Just be ready in case you buy it as a gift or like to have nice pristine game boxes that that can occur. None of my subsequent like 5 gift purchases came crumpled so it doesn't seem to happen often so may have been a 1 time thing.

Love the game, great for everyone
