This is ( obviously) a utility device. The secret is in the title. One die makes the sound of two.
Think about that. ONE chip makes the sound of TWO. You're not wearing a shaker underneath your
sleeve. Do it with shorts sleeves. Every thing is open. The possibilities are beyond my brain
capacity. The video instructions are comprehensive & will only inspire your own creations.... the
most practical & useful device in...

If you have ever purchased a rattle device then you know how expensive they are. By comparison this
is extremely affordable. If you have ever added an audible aspect to your magic, you know how
powerful it can be. This shortens the time between the “move” and the “magic.” People will believe
that the die is in your hand until the moment it vanishes.
This is the type of thing that
is going to sell out and years from now it will sell on eBay for ten times the price.
The
dice are of great quality and work just as advertised. If you want to silence your die, I can’t
think of why you would, but if you do, buy a tiny magnet from amazon. The ones they use with metal
collar stays. The magnet provided won’t last and you do not need it.
The instructions are
fantastic. They are mostly coin effects with dice. Dice/coins come back, dice/coins through the
table and a dice through cup that is a combination of coins through glass and a cup and ball
routine. There is a cheating with dice demonstration that will require some practice.
Using only the simplest of slights within the reach of an absolute beginner and believable
offbeat switches and ditches Wilson provides you with well choreographed routines with no
unjustified moves. I got a little tired of him saying “come on!” As an applause cue, but that is a
minor complaint. If anything, I think he should have remained silent for a few seconds and let the
effect sink in. If $ was not so tight right now I would have purchased a back up set. If you are
worried about people figuring it out you are wrong. Presentation is the key. The dice will be
switched out and placed on the palm of their hand and they will never know. You will only do one
routine but it will be remembered. It is a worker and and an EDC. Purchase 2 before they are all
gone!

This did not disappoint. It’s well made, and sounds even better in person. If you’re hesitant, just
do it, it does what you want it to.

Greg is right. Can't believe no one thought of this sooner. Absolutely original and versatile. Audio
fooling at it's best. A true winner. DO get this!

Dice are part of my EDC and this will be too! Great tool to add to my toolbox.

Great product. I hope penguin puts out more stuff like this. I could see this being a classic
gimmick if it was released 30 years ago. Mine did have a small blemish on one of the edges but it’s
small and hard to see, so I’m not worried about it. The price is pretty great for what you get. The
extra tool that’s included also broke pretty quickly but I would suggest using a different one
anyway for some of the ideas Greg mentions on the download. Overall I would recommend this to anyone
who wants to explore audio illusions or dice magic.

Roll a winner with this trick! This is very strong magic. So strong, laymen will have no idea. You
get two regular dice, a gimmicked die, and an extra piece to silence the die. This extra piece can
easily be replaced. Greg's teaching is top notch like always. You will learn some sleights and some
fake rolls. I highly recommend this, it all fits in your pocket. Perfect for walk around and table
hopping.

This is quality made gimmick with clear video instruction. Great to pair with other dice trick like
Mental Die. I do recommend this trick.

What’s up fellow Magicians! Man….what a beautiful set of dice! Shout outs to both Gregory Wilson and
Nick Locapo for their spot on routine ideas! I’ve been using them every night for my Table Hopping
and Bar gigs. I start with a few effects with the non-gimmick dice to set up the Rattle Dice
routine. This allows you to let the audience handle the dice before introducing the gimmick die. It
makes for a seamless transition to continue with two dice (gimmick and non-gimmick) dice for a
killer closer! Thanks, as always to Penguin Magic for offering such incredible Magic effects!
