SleightfulMagic Review - Word Games by Chris Rawlins
David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers a passionate review of Chris Rawlins’ *Word Games*, a marked deck of cards cleverly disguised as a Scrabble tile deck. Acknowledging his bias as a fan of Rawlins and mentalism, David highlights the deck's quality, subtle markings, and versatility for mentalists. The deck features a solid green back with the Scrabble logo and Phoenician alphabet letters with point values. David showcases four included routines: 'I Do,' 'Favorite Word,' 'Deeper Foundations,' and 'Magic Vending Machine,' and notes its compatibility with Magic Dream Paris effects. He emphasizes a casual approach to using marked cards, encouraging natural handling to avoid suspicion. Praising its realistic appearance, quality construction, and diverse routines, David considers *Word Games* a valuable addition to any mentalist's arsenal, calling it 'the alphabet deck you have been waiting for your entire Mentalist career.' The deck retails for $37.50 at Stevens Magic Emporium. David also promotes his Magic Orthodoxy membership, offering exclusive content and tutorials.
