Monopoly Magic !

I like the idea of the mentalism premise where you have a 5 objects that are all the same and one different one. People from the audience all hold one of the objects, and you find who is holding the odd one.

That premise is fun, and I have a few themes for it. The other day I thought of one using Monopoly game pieces.

The hotels and houses lend themselves to a presentation about finding your way home.

This set of houses and hotels was 3D printed and is gimmicked to work with Promystic’s Flux. One of the challenges of using an electronic gimmick is what do you do if it doesn’t work? What’s the out? For some things, I’ve decided the best way to do it is to have a second gimmick. Luckily, Flix isn’t too expensive, and running two gimmicks at the same time isn’t very complicated.

I look forward to trying this out!
