Simply doesn't work Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 26th, 2018
This seems like it should work and presumably has worked for others but I've tried 2 different pens and a pencil (many times each). I've watched the video 7 times in case I missed something but it still doesn't work. *You were warned* The best part was Peter Turner's insight on Mentalism and aside from the method not working at all, the worst was Dee Christopher apparently in a bath robe. Come on Dee, you're better than that. 1 Star because I can't get it to work, which makes it a waste of money for me.

Macgyver meets the impression device! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 14th, 2017
This is a gem of a download. Imagine being able to create an impression pad literally in seconds using completely borrowed items. You can do that, essentially anytime, anywhere, with the knowledge you will gain in this video. Peter and Dee teach lots of subtleties and some really clever concepts on top of the core method.

Highly recommended.

PROLONGED BOREDOM Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 22nd, 2018
If I had known that this download would be an hour of Peter Turner's boring philosophizing, I would have never purchased it. The effect itself is disappointing, but Peter is a real downer. I know he may be highly regarded in the UK as a mentalist, but every video I've seen him in has been a gushing of uninteresting verbiage. It's quite obvious he's quite taken by himself. He goes on, and on, and on attempting to portray some wise guru with endless verbal philosophy that frankly puts me to sleep. In addition, coming from the old school, I find the excessive tattooing of all the exposed parts of his body quite distracting, thus making it hard for me to take him seriously. And, although I try very hard to stay awake and listen to what he is saying, his thick accent is difficult for me to understand. I suspect he's a nice guy, but I'm afraid he's just too full of himself.

creative but not revolutionary Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 14th, 2018
I had thought of using the same principle myself but its a little risky. People generally are aware that they may have made an impression just my pressing hard on any pad I have used. This leads them to, in my experience to look a few pages under where they wrote. Even if they don't do this, there is a high chance that they could pop up the page to the impression accidently. It works but i would go to other methods and pads still. If you are stuck for something to do and don't have much on your person, it might help to know this, however, and for a reasonably low price.

too risky Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 17th, 2021
Theoretically it’s a good idea, but in practice it’s extremely risky. spectator may easily see the impression or the impression doesn’t work depending on the pen brand. There are more practical ways to receive information on the fly.

Cool impromptu trick! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on June 5th, 2018
This trick is great. Very descriptive video with a lot of options for creating your performance. It's a little bit long but has valuable information. The trick itself is simple but the content is very complete.

Love It!!! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on February 14th, 2018
I've been doing something like this using different materials before I even knew this existed and I loved it but this took what I had been working with and cleaned it up! Its nice to have something that is so simple and impromptu as well! Great minds!

Very workable impromptu effect Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 3rd, 2018
The method for this is so simple and straightforward that you will go, "Oh, man, I should have thought of that!" The real guts of the effect, is, as mentalist and dvd narrator Peter Turner tells you, how it's presented. This is absolutely true of all mentalism effects, and there's no news here. That said, someone new to mentalism will find this effect a great method for constructing and presenting a good routine to cut his/her teeth on. The materials are on hand everywhere; carry with, or get them from spectators, and you're good to go. Good for walk-around or parlor. This effect will pay for itself

My only complaint lies with the nature of the instruction itself. The setup of the method is explained thoroughly. Peter Turner's lecture on the nature of shaping spectator reaction is also very thorough, and a good reminder for all mentalists on what's most important in mentalism. What is missing is any performance footage of the main method Turner teaches; some demo, in teaching or of live-shot footage of the total routine with real spectators, would be of great help in explaining the complete handling of the effect. Can you figure it out? Yes. Will that take practice? Of course.

Simple Solution Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 15th, 2017
You won't be surprised by the secret behind this trick. You probably did it back in school when you're little. It's true, you can do this while you're performing with no other gimmicks other than a pen and paper. However I prefer doing the prep ahead of time and I think it will still be a strong trick. 10 seconds prep is all you need! Teaching is clear! The reason for 4 stars is I personally think that the "move" involved to make this trick work will be a little weird if you do it for as long as they recommend you to do it while spectators are in front of you. I can't say anything more without revealing the secret. Overall this is nice trick to do strong mentalism on the fly without using any of the expensive pads available out there. Buy it if you want to learn something quick and easy to do but still gets strong reactions from the spectators if presented well!

It's a Good Idea Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 14th, 2017
The actual principle is very straightforward and simple. It is what it says on the ad copy and is an imp device.
Would I stop using my Psypher? No.
However, in a pinch if someone has index cards or sticky notes and a pen, I can create a workable imp device in real time.
The whole instructional video is an hour long. I do wish there were more close ups, but the video covers all the subtleties. Peter goes over a lot of his thoughts on how to use an imp device which is valuable and important. Matt Melo also has another idea involving a prediction which I couldn't get to work exactly for me.
I would say if you're happy with your current imp device, you would be fine without this. However, I do feel comfortable that I can borrow a sticky note from someone and a pen and create an imp device in case I forget mine.
However, it still takes experimenting to get comfortable and 100 percent with it. I personally would stick to my good ole' reliable imp. However, Peter's advice is really good.
