I’ve seen this before as a minigame and can’t play it. I can identify whether any three cards are a set, but when presented with 12-15 cards I have to brute-force combinations, which is far too slow a method with the time limit.
Mostly I’m curious what the nature of my impairment is, because I think it’s psychologically interesting. I’ve been doing some experimentation and reading, and I think I may have identified autism as the problem, specifically issues with global processing and parallel feature integration. Can any other autists share their experience with the game?
In the course of my reading I found the claim that one cannot improve one’s skill at Set with practice, but in less than 24 hours I’ve more than halved the time it takes to go through a deck solo. I’m really excited to see how practice in this area translates to other tasks, and to find more games which require similar skills.
