Required Tasks
1. Implement a game of solo (i.e. one player) Set.
2. As the game play progresses, try to keep all the cards visible and as large as possible.
In other words, cards should get smaller (or larger) as more (or fewer) appear on-
screen at the same time. It’s okay if you want to enforce a minimum size for your
cards and then revert to scrolling when there are a very large number of cards.
Whatever way you deal with “lots of cards” on screen, it must always still be possible
to play the game (i.e. cards must always be recognizable, even when all 81 are in play
at the same time).
3. Cards can have any aspect ratio you like, but they must all have the same aspect ratio at
all times (no matter their size and no matter how many are on screen at the same
time). In other words, cards can be appearing to the user to get larger and smaller as
the game goes on, but the cards cannot be “stretching” into different aspect ratios as
the game is played.
4. The symbols on cards should be proportional to the size of the card (i.e. large cards
should have large symbols and smaller cards should have smaller symbols).
5. Users must be able to select up to 3 cards by touching on them in an attempt to make
a Set (i.e. 3 cards which match, per the rules of Set). It must be clearly visible to the
user which cards have been selected so far.
6. After 3 cards have been selected, you must indicate whether those 3 cards are a match
or mismatch. You can show this any way you want (colors, borders, backgrounds,
whatever). Anytime there are 3 cards currently selected, it must be clear to the user
whether they are a match or not (and the cards involved in a non-matching trio must
look different than the cards look when there are only 1 or 2 cards in the selection).
7. Support “deselection” by touching already-selected cards (but only if there are 1 or 2
cards (not 3) currently selected).
8. When any card is touched on and there are already 3 matching Set cards selected,
then …
a. as per the rules of Set, replace those 3 matching Set cards with new ones from the
deck
b. if the deck is empty then the space vacated by the matched cards (which cannot be
replaced since there are no more cards) should be made available to the remaining
cards (i.e. which may well then get bigger)
c. if the touched card was not part of the matching Set, then select that card
d. if the touched card was part of a matching Set, then select no card
