Review: After reading Peter Duffie’s review on the café, I had to check this out. You really can hand this deck out to a person and the stack is invisible. The technique used is very clever and concise to get the little information needed to apparently read the spectators mind. It can be used also in a 2 spectator routine where one card is chosen and another mentally selected. It can also be performed as a thought of card at number effect.

Some key points:

* Normal cards
* No crazy math formulas
* Instantly reset

Overall:
This now could be the best mindreading decks, bar none. I believe it is far cleaner than the Kennedy deck and also includes a no questions asked divination.

9/10

I also got it but haven't had the chance to play around a lot, but these are also my initial thoughts.
I have and use the Mindpower deck but so far this looks better.
Also if you mail Nick or Jeff they will send you a supplement with extra routines, plus they are really friendly and will answer all your questions and give you more ideas. Thumbs up from me too.

the website is a bit vague on this

It talks about a number. I thought it was supposed to be a playing card that is revealed. Can you explain where the number comes into it... is it a countdown of some kind..please be specific

The Mindpower Deck which it was compared to is a playing card reveal and as clean as it gets i suppose for this kind of effect. And would take some beating IMO

I agree with you. It is vague.
In reality, the number does not have to be used at all UNLESS you want to use it.
In other words, you can perform the effects as a mind reading or precognition.
It is an extra convincer, but I can tell you this can easily be done as a mentally selected card at number written before the person even thought of the card.
I do not believe that is possible with the MPD.
Try divining the card in less than 3 questions or letting the spectator handle the MPD.
Now, the DD can not be used to divine 3 cards like MPD.
