Don't hesitate. Just install. I can always turn to Oblique Strategies to give me fresh perspective and steer my consciousness around a stubborn logjam. It's good for the mind, good for the soul, good for life.

No fancy graphics to get in the way. A simple interface to a legendary creative tool. Draw a card and use the card's message to help you.

Peter Schmidt.... Watford School of Art.... I remember him telling us that he was creating these with Brian, then he brought them to show us.... I pulled a card from the pack.... Can't remember what it said, but great memories.... and great artistic influence.... Babs (aka: L.)

Not as full-featured as other offerings, was great while it was the only Oblique Strategies app, though.

Its awesome but after using this on an iPhone, you realize it hasn't been updated since Froyo, not that it needs a crazy interface but it would definitely be nice with a graphical refresh.

The app is simple to use.. but would be more useful with a simple widget that pulls up a random card, either via a toast notification or a quick modal with the card.

A perfectly simple presentation while the cards themselves are useful and provocative.
