Magic Tricks

This deck was a collaboration with seven different designers under the supervision of an art director from Bocopo Playing Cards. The navy blue tuck box makes a statement of class, while also revealing what it took to produce this deck: 8 artists, 348 hours of work, and 58 illustrations.

The card backs feature a complex college of triangles full of earthy colours and patterns, that combine well to produce a singular impression. The geometric fragments enhance flourishing, while the singular whole and colourful edges with the thin white borders help create pleasant fans and spreads.

But the real highlight is the card faces, each having a unique and fresh design that is its own work of art. Each tells a different story, such as "An Entanglement Giraffe" (4 of Hearts), "Humorous Octopus Magician" (6 of Diamonds), and "Fire Balloon with Sunset Clouds" (Jack of Spades).

Wherever you look in this deck, there are things to explore and enjoy, that capture the imagination and attention, from poker playing dogs to chameleons, hot air balloons, and much more. It's a true collection of fascinating individual masterpieces.

Instead of a plain white background, the cards have whites, browns, greys, and blacks, and the result is that it feels like a more authentic collection of art, that isn't overly stark or artificial.

This deck was also produced by USPCC with their classic air cushion style finish for quality and good handling. - BoardGameGeek reviewer EndersGame
