Animated Spells: Cantrips

Keep the spell. Lose the page flipping.

Bring a little movement to your magic with Animated Spells: Cantrips by Hit Point Press, a deck of 30 tarot-sized lenticular spell cards designed for 5e tabletop play.

Tilt a card and the artwork comes alive in an original 8-frame looping animation. Flip it over and you'll find easy-reference spell information ready for the table.

Instead of searching through a rulebook every time you cast, bring the cards for the spells you actually use—and keep your magic right in front of you.

Watch Your Spells Come to Life

Each Animated Spell card uses lenticular printing to create a short animation as the card moves in your hand.

Fire Bolt fires.

Mage Hand moves.

Eldritch Blast does what Eldritch Blast does best.

It's a wonderfully tactile way to represent magic while still functioning as a practical reference during play.

Made for the Game Table

The spell information you need is printed on the reverse of each card, helping players and Game Masters quickly reference spells without interrupting the game to search through a book.

At 70 × 120 mm, the cards are tarot sized—large enough for the animated artwork to shine and for the reference information to remain useful.

Choose the spells your character knows or has prepared, put those cards beside you, and leave the rest of the deck tucked away until you need them.

Why We Love It

They're genuinely animated. The 8-frame lenticular artwork isn't just decorative packaging—the individual spell cards move when tilted.

They're useful. Pretty is nice. Pretty and eliminating rulebook flipping is considerably better.

Bring only what you need. Pull your character's spells from the deck and keep a compact reference beside you during play.

They're wonderfully tactile. In a game built around imagination, there's something satisfying about putting the spell you're casting physically onto the table.

And frankly, Eldritch Blast deserved its own trading card.
