SET: The Computer Game
$59.99
Please be aware that I've never played Cyber SET; I'm a HUGE fan of the card game and the daily online puzzle who finally decided to bite the bullet and buy this edition. Not only was the game no longer listed for sale on the company's Web site, but the customer service department (who, to their credit, responded to my questions very quickly) informed me that the game doesn't even run on anything more recent than Macintosh OS 8 (although subsequent sifting through their site claims through OS X 10.2--two upgrades ago at the time of this review). A revision is said to be in the works, but I was informed that it was unlikely to see the light of day before 2007.

Unlike the previous reviewer, I'm not particularly interested in playing online, or on a network against my friends which I can easily do with the cards (everyone in my circle owns a deck)--I'd just like to be able to improve by playing against my laptop. It seems a tad ironic that a game with such high "nerd appeal" is no longer compatible with recent technology. My rating reflects my disappointment that Cyber SET isn't available for newer operating systems; there aren't enough stars to rate SET itself.
