Nique Tan Chats - The “Shell” Game by Maibro & TCC Magic

Magician Nique Tan delivers a thoughtful review of the "Shell" Game set by Maibro, distributed by TCC Magic. Acknowledging his lack of prior experience with the classic three-shell game, Tan provides an honest assessment of the props and their potential. He highlights the set's quality, the included 20-minute tutorial, and a 15% discount available through a link in the description. The shells themselves are praised for their unique *toris* shell design, solid brass construction, and a clever feature allowing for the illusion of an empty shell while secretly concealing a ball. Tan attempts a basic three-shell routine to illustrate the effect, emphasizing that a well-crafted routine is crucial for success. He explores creative possibilities like color changes and a multiple-ball finale, but ultimately favors a gambling expose approach. Overall, Tan recommends the set to those who appreciate the three-shell game, praising the props' quality and aesthetic appeal, and encouraging viewers to utilize the affiliate link for a discount.
