Jheff's Guide
WHAT IT IS:
A set of cards with line drawings on them.
HOW ACCURATE OR COMPLETE THE AD COPY IS:
The ad copy leads off by claiming that this is self-working and then later says it’s “100% self-working.” No trick is self-working, so this is, by definition, false advertising and misleading. It does not require any sleights, though.
WHAT’S NOT INCLUDED THAT YOU NEED OR NEED TO KNOW:
This is a version of Max Maven’s (aka Phil Goldstein) Designated Thinker. There is a change in the target drawing from an arrow to a house. Max is neither mentioned in the ad copy, nor the instructional video.
SETUP AND RESET:
The cards must be in a certain order, but there are six so it’s easy to reset the order if necessary
ANGLES:
None
SUITABLE VENUES:
Close-up, Walkaround, Internet
JHEFF’S JUDGMENT:
It is hard to recommend a product that is based on a classic effect that many experienced mentalists will recognize, and that does not really change the effect significantly. This is still Max Maven’s Designated Thinker and a worse version of it. The effect is easy to do and straightforward, but it can’t be instantly repeated. The change from an arrow to a house does not make it a significantly different effect. I will catalog this only because the original is unavailable (and it may not be in my catalog for long), but it will not be a featured product.
