Games collection

Set collection games

24 games in this collection.

Set collection games reward you for gathering matching or complementary items. The tag tells you what players gather, but little about how the game feels. You might be matching colours, balancing several kinds of item or deciding when to cash in a set, in anything from a light family card game to a heavy engine builder. Watching a scoring turn makes that difference clearer than a list of components.
