Reviews for "The Science Behind the Magic: Contemporary Assortments Demystified"
1. Sarah - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the contemporary magic assortments. I expected a variety of unique and interesting magic tricks, but instead, it was just a collection of the same old tricks that I have seen a hundred times before. There was nothing innovative or original about it. I would not recommend this assortment to anyone looking for something new and exciting in the world of magic.
2. John - 1 star - The contemporary magic assortments were a complete waste of money. The tricks were poorly made and did not work properly. I spent hours trying to figure out how to make them work, but they were just useless. The instructions were vague and unclear, making it even more frustrating. I regret buying this assortment and would not recommend it to anyone.
3. Emily - 2 stars - I had high hopes for the contemporary magic assortments, but unfortunately, they did not meet my expectations. The tricks were fairly basic and lacked the wow factor I was looking for. I have seen better magic sets at a lower price point. Some of the props included were flimsy and broke easily. Overall, I was not impressed with this assortment and would not purchase it again.
4. Michael - 3 stars - The contemporary magic assortments were decent, but nothing extraordinary. The tricks were average and didn't offer anything new or unique. The props provided were of average quality and didn't hold up well after a few uses. While it wasn't a terrible assortment, it also didn't leave a lasting impression. I would recommend exploring other magic sets before settling for this one.
