Effect

Hearken Dice is a mentalism trick where the magician divines the numbers on two dice placed inside a wooden box. The spectator freely chooses which numbers face up, closes the box, and hands it to the magician. Without looking inside, the magician reveals the exact numbers on both dice. The effect can also be adapted for card-at-any-number routines, adding versatility to performances.

Full Details

Hearken Dice is part of TCC Magic’s Classicho Collection Season 2. It consists of a wooden box and two large, high-quality dice made from Cambodian Rosewood. The box is designed for one-handed operation, making the method easy to execute. Unlike single-dice versions of the trick, Hearken Dice allows two spectators to participate simultaneously, increasing engagement.

The trick is self-working, requiring no advanced sleight of hand. However, performers must be mindful of angles, as the method can be exposed if viewed from behind. The dice and box can be examined before and after the performance.

Who Should Consider the Trick

Hearken Dice is ideal for:

Mentalists who want a clean, prop-based method for number divination.
Close-up and parlor magicians looking for an interactive routine.
Performers who enjoy classic plots but want a modern, well-crafted version.

It may not suit those who prioritize portability, as the box and dice are bulky.

Difficulty

The trick is beginner-friendly, with no complex sleights required. The one-handed box design simplifies the method, but performers should practice handling to ensure smooth execution. The included tutorial is brief, so those unfamiliar with similar tricks (like the Color Vision box) may need to develop their own presentation.

What Magicians Say

RealMagicReview (Steve Faulkner): "They’ve mixed Color Vision with dice prediction... it’s a complete fooler. The dice are beautifully made, and you can use it for any card-at-any-number routine."
ChrisEdwardsMagic: "The one-handed design makes the move effortless. It’s perfect for mentalism or card routines, though it’s not pocket-friendly."
MonsterMagicShop (Alex Kirk): "The two-dice addition is interesting, but the tutorial feels rushed. I prefer the single-dice version for practicality."

Hearken Dice is praised for its craftsmanship and fooling power, though some reviewers note its size and lack of in-depth instructions as drawbacks.

What people are saying about Hearken Dice

ChrisEdwardsMagic says...

The design of this box allows you to do the move very very easily with one hand... very well made.

The problem is I'm not sure adding another die really makes any difference... it's a real brick so you're going to be keeping it at home.

RealMagicReview says...

They've kind of mixed the two so color vision being a color that being a dice and now you've got two rather than one Cube as in color vision... it's made beautifully really lovely piece of Kit.
