Love the Creative Whack Pack !
I use the Creative Whack Pack for quite a few things . Problem solving instead of over thinking and stinkin thinkin. From just fun to serious creative thinking. I started with this app a long time ago when it was a disc 3 1/2”. I guess it was in the 90s. I recommend the app to everyone. Love it . Thank you !Gis DB
Love this!!!!
I took a Creative Thinking class years ago. The ‘Whack’ book and related book was our guide. Then I bought the Creative Whack Pack.
I recently found this app. I love it. If my journaling is blocked, I journal about whatever the card triggers.
Fabulous app.SCspirit
Useful, quirky app
Personally, I think this app manages to evade the typical spiral into antiquity that SW normally faces after even 2-3 years.
Brings a smile to me when I use it, even still!
Here is borne (and remains) the fruit of timeless genius. 😄instantIncense

I took a cue from my own Card 21 "Simplify" and turned the Workshops into an easy-to-use "Ask the Oracle." I also included pre-selected issues in case you need help coming up with some. Whenever you need a catalyst to generate and access creative ideas, just "Ask the Oracle!" -- Roger von Oech
