The Creative Whack Pack is a “creative workshop in an App.” It consists of 64 illustrated creativity strategies. Each of these packed with stories, examples, and questions.
— 16 Explorer strategies highlight places to find new information.

Work with these creative strategies in four different Creative Workshops. You can use the Creative Whack Pack by yourself, or with colleagues and friends.
The ideas you generate will delight you! Your involvement in each session can be as brief a 30-second “quick hit of stimulation,” or as long as ten-minute “creative workshop.”

Customer Reviews
Get Whacked!
Creative Whack Pack for the iphone is a fantastic digital extension of the original Creative Whack Pack! For those you who know this tool, the portability of it on your iphone means you can easily inspire your creative mind anywhere. If you're not familiar with it, and you're a creative professional, the anecdotal outside the box viewpoints, are fantastic at giving you new perspectives on your projects. Great for the muddled mind, and now portable too! (Oh and sssssh, keep this a secret, but it's also a fantastic bargain when compared to the best selling original! )
This is an everyday app!!
Think of this as an expanded version of the card-based whack pack. It takes great advantage of the iPhone platform, and provides a great user experience. Simple to navigate, even share Creative Whacks with friends and associates. For inspiration, select Whack of the Day, a new card pops up, and each and every card provides a spark to your imagination, jogs your mind and helps you solve problems big and small. It does a great job addressing the creativity process from many perspectives as well. This is definitely worth the money.
This Whack Packs A Punch!
This is a very good smart-phone rendition of one of my favorite products, the Creative Whack Pack card deck. But it has a lot more playability. Lots of stories and good questions.
I especially like the "Whack of the Day" and "Oracle" workshop functions. Nice design and execution.
