ONE PLAYER VERSION: Here is a "rule" that's un-stated. ANY TWO CARDS are 2/3 of a 3-card "set". So, pick ANY two cards at random, and as quickly as you can, divine what the 3rd card should be. Say you pick "ONE RED SOLID CAPSULE" and "ONE RED OPEN CAPSULE". If you run through the 4 attributes (color / number / shape / shading ) you see "red/red(need RED)" / "one/one(need ONE)" / "capsule/capsule(need CAPSULE)" / "solid/open(need "hashed"). And there you have it: you would need, to complete the set, "one red hashed capsule" (don't bother finding the card, just pick another two at random & try again).

You definitely can! You're just racing your own brain instead of others. You can play one-player versions on their website: http://www.setgame.com/set/daily_puzzle or through the NY Times website as well.

I play alone all of the time.In fact, I have it on my Android phone (and used to have it on my iPhone).It is a great way to "warm up" your brain, or relax in the evening.

you can. it will be really short and boring. i find fiasco works best with 4-5 players

Yes. Two players is easy. Four is the most difficult. But you can play with three.

2 people could in theory play the game but it would get boring fast. I prefer playing the game with 6+ people So the game lasts a lot longer.

You can play the game solo, so minimum player is one. The game itself comes with enough to play four maximum...but I know there is a promo out there that can add a fifth player.

It will and the rules kind of allow a range of difficulty that players can decide. You can play this by following rules very strictly or be loose and just have fun with it.

The minimum is 1. You can play solo! The instructions for 1 player game comes in the box. The maximum is 4.

Yes. This is a single player game, where you can control the individuals in your party.

Yes. Up to 6 can play but I have only played with 1 other person and it goes well.

No. It's like verbal charades. The answer is in the screen and the one holding the screen must get his/her teammate to guess the word in the screen. You need at least two people (for companionship playing), but the game is better with four or more.

You can. I've played it with students as 3 player. But you might want to modify the rules a bit. Because with 3 players, you either score 2 points or no points. Which isn't as much fun as with 4 or more players.

This was sent to my grandson, who lives far away. This was not an electronic game, so I don't know how it could be played by one person. I believe that the electronic ones can be played alone or with two people.

I'm going to say no. I think (whether the game says it or not) you need at least three people. But I would go even further and say to have some real fun with this game, you need at least four people.

Sure. It's not as enjoyable as with more players. But two would be fine. (You could actually do it as solitaire, I would think. See how many turns it takes you until you get to X number. Then, try to do it in fewer turns.) But it's really a social game, and as such, more people = more fun.

Yes, there is both a single player and two player mode for this game to be used.

Yes... 2 groups of 10 people. In addition, this game tends to be more fun depending on who you play with. Make sure you have people who aren't too afraid to be silly and who tend to think outside of the box:)
