About Absolute, from BoardGameGeek:

In Absolute, players make sets of 3 or more cards whose sum equals zero. Swap cards with played sets, add cards to your sets, or regroup your sets for more points. Cards are colored blue/white for positive numbers or red/black for negative numbers. Play Description: Each turn you draw a card from the deck or discard pile. You can swap cards up to 2 cards in your hand with up to 2 cards in any one set on the table (yours or another player's). This can help get you get the numbers or suits you need for better hands, decrease the value of another player's set, or both. Then you can play your own sets of cards, add cards to your existing sets, or play cards to regroup your sets for more points. Play 3 sets and discard your last card to "go out" to end a round. The player with the most points after 3 rounds wins. -description from the publisher
