Created for magicians, by magicians. "The Magicians Playing Cards" by Riffle Shuffle are a custom deck of playing cards that features a built-in puzzle and super fun battle card game for magicians—and, of course, can also be used for all your favorite card tricks.
Inspired by the Golden Age of Magic, these playing cards pay homage to some of magic's biggest performers and also some of it's most innovative creators.
The Puzzle
Each court card is abundant with rich information about the magic world. These contain the name of a famous magical effect (such as "TnR", "Ambitious Effect", etc.) and features the portrait of a famous magician. The custom illustrations also feature a small puzzle offering clues that hint at a magician themed movie.
Each number card features a famous magician, a prop used by magicians and an effect created or usually performed by that artist.
The Game
"The Magicians: Playing Cards, Card Game and Puzzle" also comes with a set of instructions that teaches you how you can use the court cards to battle your magician friends. This game was specially-designed with magicians in mind. It was created in a way that allows you to have fun with you fellow magicians while also using the deck of cards to perfect your craft.
The Detail
The embossed tuck case takes inspiration from a Victorian Era painting which showcases a devil playing cards with the magician on stage. On the inside of the tuck case you will find the names of all the backers who have helped make this project a reality.
