Hey everyone - it is our county fair week and I am rotating between strolling magic and promoting a church basketball program. Last night I had several people ask me to "read their mind" (Cubed Card) - so I had this guys daughter film effect 1 (my favorite) of Cubed Card. It is as close to direct mind reading as you can get - in the video you will notice:
1) Nothing gets written down 2) Spectator has control of the card and a free choice 3) No questions are asked 4) No fishing for information 5) The answer isn't always 14 (as it was in the video) Usually people react to stunned silence with effect 1 and each effect builds in outward reactions (the guy went nuts when I trained his 11-year-old daughter to do effects 4 and 5 right in front of him without him even knowing!) - also from my strolling sets using the text prediction in effect 3 I have tons of cell phone numbers from the fair for potential clients! These will start selling for $10 + shipping from dealers late October but get it on Trickstarter for only $10 (free shipping) PLUS a free copy of Boxology ($7.99 value) - please feel free to ask any questions about this effect (not trying to hide anything or rip people off) - it has served me well for the past year! Here is the video (girl wasn't a great filter but you do see entire effect) https://youtu.be/GI04hL36jyY

Down to the final week on Trickstarter - I sent out the effect and instructions to just a couple people to review and they have been so busy they haven't had a chance to check it out yet. I think Cubed Card is great for both hobbyists and professionals and would like to get some thoughts/reviews from some people in the final week before it goes to dealers. So if you are able/willing to watch a 30 minute instructional video this weekend (most of it is live performance examples) and post some thoughts on what you like/don't like just post "I want to check it out" below and the first 3 people that respond I will send a private message with a private link to the instructions and just ask for honest thoughts on the effects.

Review: Cubed Card
I've supported this on Trickstarter, but Mike was kind enough to send me the tutorial video for it prior to its official release in exchange for posting my thoughts on it. The tutorial video is just over 30 minutes in length and covers the working of the 5 effects with real world performances of each effect included after each explanation. The Cubed Card itself is clearly shown and looks to be made of thick white credit-card sized card stock with clear pictures of dice printed across the face and back. No words or other distractions, just the dice in a 4 x 6 grid on each face. 3 main effects are taught, along with 2 bonus "teach a spectator" effects. Although not explicitly covered in the tutorial, there is enough information shown to be able to construct your own replacement card if the original gets lost or damaged, which is what I did in order to play around a little with the Cubed Card routines. I should say here that I am not a performer, just a hobbyist and in order to give Cubed Card a fair trial I only practiced one of the main effects and one of the teach a spectator effects. So, what are the effects? Effect 1 (Mind Reading) – After showing your spectator that the rows on each side of the card add up to different sums the spectator is free to choose a row and add up the total – without asking any questions you are able to look into your spectators eyes and tell them what number they are thinking! This for me was the weakest of the 3 main effects. The method is very obvious and you won’t want your participant holding on to the card for too long. You'll also have to restrict their choice just a little, but this is covered in the tutorial. The effect could be immediately repeated with a different outcome, but you would need some additional scripting to add a further restriction. I didn't practice this one as I feel that the presentation of it requires a certain amount of confidence which I didn't feel able to develop in the short time available to me. Effect 2 (Body Language) – Spectator rolls an imaginary dice and remembers the number on top. You have your spectator answer “yes” to every number (1-6) when you ask them one by one if it is his/her number and you are able to determine when they told the truth and when they lied based on their body language and you can tell them exactly what their number was. This for me was the strongest effect. The apparently random distribution of the dice covers the method well. The spectator has a truly free choice and the effect can be repeated with different outcomes. This is the effect I decided to practice with because it was the best fit for me. There is plenty of scope for interaction with the spectator and you can have fun playing up the truth or lie aspect as you try to interpret their body language. The tutorial and performance clip shows you the basic method for getting the selection, but I found it more fun to play around with the truth or lie aspect during this selection acquisition phase sometimes asking them to tell the truth, sometimes asking them to lie, and sometimes letting them decide if they will lie or tell the truth. This effect on its own, for me, is worth the price of Cubed Card. The divination process can be presented in a number of different ways for an immediate repeat. Effect 3 (Prediction) – You make a prediction (written, whispered to a spectator, or by texting to allow you to send your web info after the performance is over) of what dice a spectator will land on after a free choice of side, row, and how many to count over in that row. This is a neat application of a well-known !@#$e. Mike covers the numerous options you can use to arrive at the predicted number, and it is clear from a quick video insert that even he is still learning new ways to present this. With a suitably confident presentation should serve you well. Effect 4 (Spectator) – Train a spectator to reveal a completely free choice of any dice on the card. You are able to train your spectator right in front of everyone without them knowing a thing! It takes just a few seconds to train a spectator in the method and it looks really clean to everyone else. You get someone to freely pick a dice on the card and your newly trained assistant is able to instantly reveal the number of their selection. This is the bonus routine I practiced with and the look of pleasure on my grandson's face when he revealed both mum & dad's selections was a joy to behold. Effect 5 (Spectator) – Train a spectator to know every dice in a freely selected row is odd or even. This effect also allows you to train a spectator right in front of everyone without them knowing a thing! Again it takes just a few seconds to train a spectator in the method and again it looks really clean to everyone else. Cubed Card is a simple carry in your wallet item that will give you a good 5 minutes of impromptu mental magic. At just $10 it's a bargain. |

Hi Rick - thanks so much for taking the time to review! It is unique that for me #1 is my favorite and strongest and #2 is my least favorite (and you are the opposite) - must have to do with performance styles - my guess is everyone won't fall in love with all 5 effects but that everyone can find at least 3 out of 5 effects they love and have with them at all times that takes very little wallet space. The goal is getting close - please consider supporting and getting your own Cubed Card here:

CUBED CARD - Official Review
Perform 5 Amazing Magic Effects with a Single Business Sized Card! One Cubed Card, one Free Copy of Boxology, download instruction, $10 I had already purchased this item via the Trick Starter web site; I was given advance copy of the download instructions for review Ad Copy Integrity The ad copy is 100% accurate. It's very transparent and fair, honest and accurate. The video trailer is also totally honest and accurate. Effect 1 (Mind Reading) – After showing your spectator that the rows on each side of the card add up to different sums the spectator is free to choose a row and add up the total – without asking any questions you are able to look into your spectators eyes and tell them what number they are thinking! This is 100% Sure Fire Effect that Packs a Punch very easy to learn and if you pop the card into your wallet you have a great effect with you at all times Effect 2 (Body Language) – Spectator rolls an imaginary dice and remembers the number on top. You have your spectator answer “yes” to every number (1-6) when you ask them one by one if it is his/her number and you are able to determine when they told the truth and when they lied based on their body language and you can tell them exactly what their number was. This effect would be best for smaller Groups or one on one Effect 3 (Prediction) – You make a prediction (written, whispered to a spectator, or by texting to allow you to send your web info after the performance is over) of what dice a spectator will land on after a free choice of side, row, and how many to count over in that row. This was my favourite effect of all the items also great idea is on the Video on how to potentially get more business if you use this strolling The Last 2 Effects are called Bonus Items Effect 4 (Spectator) – Train a spectator to reveal a completely free choice of any dice on the card. You are able to train your spectator right in front of everyone without them knowing a thing! Very Sneaky was of Cueing Spectator without any Pre Show work you can do this on the fly Effect 5 (Spectator) – Train a spectator to know every dice in a freely selected row is odd or even. This effect also allows you to train a spectator right in front of everyone without them knowing a thing! Probably my least favourite effect of all but the great thing about this card you could do all the effects and you have 8-10 mins of solid entertainment or you can just pick one or two The Training Video Download last 35 mins and you can see a lot of thought has gone into this This is easy review. If you like the effect then this is a great deal. For $10 via the Kick starter website plus the bonus Boxology I would recommend to purchase before the end of the campaign as only 6 days left and the price is sure to go up once it hits the dealers https://trickstarter.com/go/projects/cubed-card/ |

Interesting that each of us has a different view as to which is their favourite effect. I think that it shows there is something for everyone in this little pocket gem.

GREAT NEWS - Cubed Card reached its goal on Trickstarter and will begin to ship as soon as the campaign ends this weekend! Martin thanks for your detailed review (glad you like some of the effects and find it worthwhile) Rik - I tried your idea of letting the spectator decide whether to lie or tell the truth in effect 2 and it was great - awesome suggestion! There is still a few days left for people to get in on the Trickstarter deal - for only $10 you are getting $20+ in value with the free shipping and free Boxology effect. Have several effects ready to go one 1 card in your wallet at all times!
