Pain Game 2.0 by Jon Allen

The Pain Game 2.0 takes one of magic’s most suspenseful plots and makes it stronger, safer, and more practical than ever.

A nail is placed into a wooden block and sealed inside one of four identical paper bags. The bags are mixed by the audience, and they decide which three bags you slam your hand down on.

The final bag is opened to reveal the nail still standing upright.

The Pain Game has become a go-to version of the Russian Roulette plot for magicians and mentalists around the world. Once set, the method is completely safe, allowing you to focus on presentation and build real tension without worry.

Version 2.0 features redesigned, sturdier gimmicks, recessed blocks so the nail sits flush, and the ability for a spectator to push the nail into the block themselves.

You receive the wooden blocks, gimmicks, and 40 paper bags.
