Instructions could be better Report this review

First this trick's promo made me think, "Take my money! I've got to have it!" The trick handles well and presents a visually stunning transformation as seen in the promo video.

I do want to mention some issues I had with the instructions. They were on a website that made me hunt for the link. I suppose that's OK since it was a "hidden area." I found the link but then the user interface was so dimly constructed that I could hardly find the text box to enter the secret code unless I angled my laptop just right. (Maybe, again, that's part of making it secret?)

Next, the instructions were fairly simple and straightforward but I missed some things the first time around due to their heavy accents (and my own aging hearing) and their brief teaching. In my opinion the instructions were too fast and did not cover some of the finer points of handling. After watching it three or four times I finally figured out what I was missing.

This trick could have earned four stars if the instructions did not make me work so hard. I like the trick but I would have liked a little more effort and detail to the finer points of handling.
