PROs
- very thin/flexible right out the box
- gorgeous back design
- matching jokers
- double backer (red and blue version back on each side)
- Extra 2 of hearts (great for
impossible location tricks)
CONs
- Though RED version is relatively centered, it's not
perfectly center-cut. The BLUE version is cut even further off to the side.

These decks are about escaping, discovering, and journeying - the word "visa" evoking trips to
foreign places. But you can retain a luxury look even when you're on a journey. The tuck boxes are
classy, with striking colour combinations: red/gold for the Red Edition, and blue/silver for the
Blue Edition. The combination of red/gold is stunning, with intricate gold producing a pattern that
brings to mind flowers, waves, or perhaps clouds. The deck title is presented in a banner, the A of
VISA stylishly mirroring the letter V.
The card backs use the same pattern from the tuck
box, while two circles give a focal point of interest, the words "Escape, Discover, Journey" around
each. Finished off with a solid border, it makes for a very classy look. The artwork on the faces
is a standard design, but intead of the garish red, yellow and blue usually seen on court cards,
there's a more regal red and deeper blue, with a wealth of metallic gold. This metallic gold looks
super classy, and I can't say enough about how stylish and elegant it makes the look, which fits
well with the card backs. Minimalist Jokers both feature the V icon from the VISA title, and two
extra cards are included for magicians. Produced by USPC, the cards also handle fantastic.
These decks are extremely practical, and are especially a great choice for magicians, given how
true they stay to the traditional design, while adding a touch of class at the same time, especially
with the regal look of the court cards. - BoardGameGeek reviewer EndersGame
