Ellusionist Invisible Deck App for iPhone

If you are already familiar with the invisible deck concept, then you will already know, that this is a very hard hitting effect. It can be presented sooo many different ways depending on the story line you come up with for your patter. This effect has been around for many many years and is not downplayed in the sleightest (magic pun of the day) in this brilliantly designed iPhone app from Ellusionist.

That said, lets get right to the review.

The interface is very clever in that with minimal input from the performer, the iPhone can then be handed out to the spectator for the entire trick to play out IN THEIR HANDS.
This concept is novel to the original invisible deck, in which, if the cards were handed out to the spectator the trick would really not play so well.
Any time magic can happen in the spectators hands it really helps to seal the mystery of the effect adding to the final impact of the trick.

The app includes full instruction, interactive training and practice modes, so you can be well rehearsed when it comes time for the actual performance.
There are 3 backgrounds to choose from and 5 different unique Ellusionist decks to perform with.

The cards look exactly like the real ones!


All in all with a little practice this is a fun hard hitting effect that I would reccomend to ANY magician with an iPhone. The UI takes almost no time to master, so you will be able to perform the same day you purchase this app.

This app can be purchased at the Apple app store for $2.99 here: 

As always make certain you practice until you can perform the effect flawlessly before you show anyone.

Now for the stars...
