I love the presentation, but can't seem to understand the criteria of what constitutes a 3some. Going by the hints doesn't help, because it selects stuff that's not "everything matches or nothing does". Often it'll pick stuff with the same number, or two of the same number and shape, with one outlier, etc.
Honestly, it's not clear to me what the game accepts as a valid set, which gets quickly frustrating. There's a good solitaire matching game in there, but I think the explanation needs a lot of work, better examples, or something.
It can be a bit confusing, aggreed. So it counts seperately for each critereia, that it has to be all the same or completely different. For example, the cards can all have the purple color, all different number of symbols, the same shape and all different fillings. That would be a threesome.
The work on the game is not done yet. A tutorial of some might be a good idea.
I think I kind of get the idea, although the explanation still confuses me. But if I read this right, there are four criteria: Number, colour, shape and fill. 3somes have to have only one of those in common, the other three criteria must be different. So three square cards must have different colour, number and fill. Similarly three cards with two items on them must have different colour, fill and shape. Those are 3somes.
I don't know if I've encountered any where ALL criteria are different or the same, which is what the directions had me looking for. i.e., all four criteria match, or do not match.
It is possible that all 4 criteria are different. For example: - 1 empty green circle - 2 striped orange triangles - 3 full purple rectangles But those would be extremely hard to recognise. It's much easier, if at least one criteria is all the same: - 1 empty green circle - 2 striped orange circles - 3 full purple circles
But they can not be all the same, simply because each card is unique.

Thank you for the feedback.
