No one is pushing boundaries like this.

This isn't just another pretty design; it’s a utility deck built for magic. With 52 marked cards and 6 exclusive gaffs included at no extra charge, you’re holding a powerhouse in every tuck case.

Unlock hundreds of tricks

The 6 gaff cards included are not just novelties—they’re extra tools that help you unlock hundreds of tricks you already know. How? Instead of buying a normal deck & a gaff deck, you now just have to buy Shipwreck to get the benefits of both.

Deadly Markings

This deck is marked & readable from all 4 corners, so you can be left, right, upside down or inside out and you'll still get your peek. Just be careful not to look too smug about 'how effortless' it was to read their mind. You've got to make it look hard, even if the deck makes it easy.

Awesome cards. Hands down.

These cards are great. Look good. Feel nice. In my opinion. Way easier to read than the cohorts. Just as discrete. Plus gaff cards that boost!! Hit another one out of the park Ellusionist.

This is like REAL Magic!

As a magician, I'm always looking for that one thing to amaze those watching me work. Also, as a collector of cards, I'm also looking for that special deck to show off with. Shipwreck is that deck. Imagine doing your favorite card effect without that difficult sleight, or that special stack. or having to switch decks. Shipwreck has made all that possible without being unaffordable. I got one deck as a whim, and after seeing and using them, I ordered additional decks because I knew I was going to wear them out.

More than a Keeper ;)

This is probably one of ellusionist's best decks EVER. The design perfectly blends in to any layman spectator while hiding a deadly secret. The deck is marked. But not only is it marked, they blend in perfectly that no one would see them unless they know where to look. This deck also comes with essential gaff cards such as a double backer, double facer, a blank (which is perfect for a trick from the How to Read Minds kit 2), and a few more. All in all this deck is perfect for magicians.

Shipwreck Are Ship-Shape!

These cards handle beautifully. I’m just a knucklehead amateur, so I can only imagine how well they would perform in the hands of a proper magician. As I’ve been trying to get back into card magic, I’ve been trying different cards to find what I like. These are my favorites so far. The bonus gaff cards make this a fantastic deal, too!

Shipwreck Playing Cards are fantastic

The included gaffs are fantastic. Allows for a lot of effects. The best part was me staring at the cards forever....and not seeing how they were marked...and then once I saw it...pure genius!. Once you know where to look, incredibly easy to read, but audience will never see it. The finish and thickness of the cards is perfect. I purchased several decks of these. Highly recommend.

Love these.

I got the stripper deck version of these cards so they are marked and have the long/ short principle added in. So far I’m really impressed with the extra gaff cards. I have yet to find the markings but I was hoping to find something of a tutorial somewhere.

A sequel that's worth the wait!

I was a huge fan of Keepers. Time, however, has not been kind to their old lighthouse nor its lightkeeper. I'm so happy to see this spiritual / graphical successor, complete with easy-to-read markings and gaffs to boot. Hats off to Oban & the team. Would love for a more vibrant red back, and while we're talking vibrant, a vibrant green would be mouth-watering as well.
