The Blurb
A fantastic coincidence effect that is great for all ages. Animals, colors and a puzzle. It’s a no-sleight trick with a big surprise reveal. Check out the video and you’ll see how it all comes together.
You show the faces and backs of a packet of oversized cards and state, “Think of a number between one and ten, and I’ll deal exactly that number of cards on the table, face up.” Any number is named (no force) and the dealing begins. You stop when that number of cards is dealt. You show the selection.
The cards are turned over and pieced together. And guess what? The design magically matches the name of the animal they selected earlier!
Coincidence or is it magic? That’s the fun of Animal Tarot. It’s by the Other Brothers, so you know it’s clever, practical and easy to do. In fact, it’s so easy to do that the spectator can even deal the cards themselves!
Includes Animal Tarot cards and online instructions.
Jheff's Guide
WHAT IT IS:
Effect with Props
HOW ACCURATE OR COMPLETE THE AD COPY IS:
It’s accurate enough, except that it implies that these cards are tarot cards with animals. They are not and this has nothing to do with tarot. The cards look more like children’s animal flash cards.
SET-UP AND RE-SET:
The cards need to be in a specific order, which takes seconds to arrange. It can be done in front of the participant. And, with practice, in the clean-up phase, you could set it back up as you put the cards away.
SUITABLE VENUES:
Close-up, Internet
JHEFF’S JUDGMENT:
This is a very strong and incredibly cute effect that appears to be more of an effect for children, due to its use of the animal theme, but, rest assured, it’s just as strong for adults, too. I’ve had very good response with this and you probably will too if this is something that suits your style and needs.
