Set Fury

Set Fury is a free browser puzzle about spotting sets in a grid, made by the front-end developer Cassidy Smith. Every tile has two properties: the shape of its speech bubble (spiky, angular, ghost and so on) and the symbol inside it (an asterisk, a spiral, an exclamation mark). A group of tiles is a set when, for each property, they are either all the same or all different.

Each day's board is numbered and generated from the date, so everyone works on the same tiles, and the page shows how many 3-, 4- and 5-tile sets are available. You click and drag to connect 3, 4 or 5 adjacent tiles, touching horizontally, vertically or diagonally.

A 3-tile set scores 1 point, a 4-tile set 3 points and a 5-tile set 7 points. A day's board holds 50 tiles, only part of which is in view at once: claimed tiles are replaced by the ones waiting above, and two arrow buttons rotate the board, and the puzzle ends when no valid set remains, so the order in which you take sets changes your final score. The result can be shared as an emoji line.

It suits fans of SET and other pattern games who enjoy squeezing the most out of a board.

The page has no ads and asks for no account. A stats panel keeps your games played, high score and current and best streak in the browser, and the share button copies a line of emoji with the count of each set size you found.
