The Missing Piece

The magician starts with a puzzle featuring Alexander, a well-known mind reader, and asks the audience to pick pieces. No matter what they choose, the missing piece always matches their selection, creating a neat illusion of free will. The trick shines with its audience engagement and visual payoff, though it might not work with just any puzzle set. You can find it at stevensmagic.com, but the price isn't shared in the video. It's a solid 8/10 for its creativity and crowd-pleasing nature.

Takeaways:

• Engages the audience with interactive puzzle pieces.
• Creates a visual and surprising payoff with the missing piece.
• Relies on the illusion of free choice for effect.
