Master of Illusions - Magic Performances on the DS!

*tips top hat*

Good day today! I momentarily break the Chronicles again since there is one thing that definitely caught my interest when I was playing through some games on my DS - and that is Master of Illusions!

What is this game, you might ask? Well it's like a game that functions as a magic prop and a magic performance stage at the same time. It empowers you (along with the DS and its helpful tricks and tips) to make a dazzling performance in front of anyone - friends, family, even strangers! It's a really interesting find for me. XD

It's not dubbed as a game per se, but rather a pastime program that you'd like to visit daily (since you can only practice for so much daily and practicing unlocks more and better magic tricks to play around with). The game provides you with magic tricks to use and also teaches you the fundamentals of performing the tricks without catching the audience's suspicions - of course to do that perfectly you need to practice, practice, practice!

Aside from the fact that you can render performances with magic tricks, there is also a built-in Magician inside the game that can perform tricks for you! Of course his tricks are way better than yours and some employ the functionalities of the DS to complete.

As a taster of what I might perform for you should we meet with my DS, here's one - the Twin Candles trick:

Instructions:

1. Blow on the DS mic. Both candles should go out. Blow on it several times after the Magician lights it for you.
2. Pick a candle among the two (it's either the red candle or the blue candle). Then point your index finger at it.
3. Blow on the DS mic again.
