Effect
Brainfluence is a three-phase mentalism routine designed to create the illusion that the performer can influence the minds of the audience.

The routine convinces spectators that the performer has genuine mental influence over their thoughts and decisions.

Since it doesn't require advanced technical skills, it's also suitable for beginners in mentalism who want a powerful effect without difficult moves.
Information on how difficult it is to perform
The difficulty level of Brainfluence is moderate. While it doesn't require advanced sleight of hand, it does need proper presentation and timing to maximize its impact. The three-phase structure means performers must manage the pacing of the routine carefully. The method is described as straightforward, but like all mentalism effects, the performance relies heavily on the presenter's ability to sell the illusion of mind influence.
