What people are saying about Open Minded by Eric Stevens
BAM_magic says...
Open-minded by Eric Stevens and alakazam magic is a very fun new take on the classic brainwave effect but with some really fooling new convincers.
magicorthodoxy says...
Open-minded is a mystery card Effect where the one card The Spectator picks will have an opposite color back [...] it's a really cool visual.
