Discover the Simplex Magic Square by Mark Elsdon
Unlock the secret to a super easy and direct magic square that Mark Elsdon has been using for over a decade in close-up, walk-around, and casual performances. The Simplex Square is not only easy to learn but also incredibly effective, using something you already carry—your business cards.
How It Works
Here’s the magic in a nutshell: a spectator secretly chooses a number and writes it down. You take out a business card, draw a square, and fill it with numbers. When asked which column their number is in, they’ll say it isn’t there. Yet, no matter which column they choose, you reveal that it, along with the other columns, rows, diagonals, corners, and middle numbers, all add up to their secret number.
Why You’ll Love It
- Zero memory work: Minimal memory required with straightforward handling.
- Highly deceptive: Appears completely unaware of the number, turning a clever math trick into an impossible feat.
- Quick to learn: Master it in just 10 minutes and start impressing audiences immediately.
- Perfect for networking: The ideal way to hand out your business card and leave a lasting impression.

The Simplex Square is the super easy and direct Magic Square that I have been using for close-up, walk-around and casual performances for the last 12 or 13 years.
It uses something that you already have in your wallet: business cards.
The effect is simplicity itself: someone secretly chooses (and writes down) a number. You take out a business card and draw a square, filling it with numbers. You ask which column their number is in.
Of course, they reply that it isn’t in any of them. You ask them to choose any one of the 4 columns and whichever they indicate, you show it to add up to their secretly chosen number.
You then show that the other 3 columns also add up to their secret number. Then all four rows…Then both diagonals… Then all four corners… The four middle numbers, etc, etc.
Almost zero memory work and the although handling is super easy it is also very deceptive. And because you are apparently unaware of the number it elevates the effect from being a clever maths demonstration to an absolutely impossible brain‐boggler!
I promise, you’ll learn this in 10 minutes and use it all the time. It is also the PERFECT way to hand out your business card.
If you already do a Magic Square, then you don’t need this. But if you’ve been meaning to learn one, or did learn one and then forgot the maths, or always been put off by the thought of having to remember a complex formula, then this is the one you need!
