Full Details
The deck comes flat-packed and requires assembly. Once assembled, the cards are extremely small but still usable for magic. The novelty factor makes it an interesting prop for close-up performances. Cavan Booth mentions that while it is not a standard item to carry, it adds an unusual element to a compact magic kit.
Who Should Consider the Trick

Information on How Difficult It Is to Perform
The deck itself is not difficult to use, but handling such small cards requires practice. Cavan notes that assembling the deck is fiddly, but once prepared, the cards function like regular playing cards. The challenge lies in adapting standard card tricks to the tiny format.
