First off...you should probably buy this trick. I mean, it's a collaboration between Spidey and Rick
Lax. How sweet is that!?
NAME GAME is a simple and very clever mentalism trick - perfect
for all skill levels. The trick is self working, so you can really focus on the presentation aspect
of mentalism - no wonder Spidey is such a BEAST when it comes to working a crowd!
The video
is well produced, and clearly explained - everything you would expect from Rick Lax. Within an hour
I was all setup, practiced, and ready to try this out.
The secret seems simple, but SOARS
PAST LAYPEOPLE. I spent the day performing it and nobody questioned anything and everyone was blown
away or thrown for a total loop!
This trick is GREAT FOR BEGINNERS. Keep it in your pocket
and perform for one or a group with no moves / no angles to worry about. The nametags make for an
easy way to break the ice. Throw on a 'Hi My Name Is..' and go up to some strangers to introduce
yourself and then introduce NAME GAME. What a great opener!
It is a principle that you
could play around with for lots of different ideas / presentations. One day in and I have already
come up with a few ideas for tailoring/tweaking it!
