This is another wonderful and interesting looking puzzle effect from Alan. His two previous items: Red Chinese Puzzle and The Oracle are quite different to Rainbow Puzzle and all have a place in your collection. This starts of as a simple geometric rearrangement of the puzzle pieces from one complete puzzle to one with a missing piece. Then the missing piece disappears from one box and ends up embedded in the puzzle in the other closed box.
Easy to do and easy to reset and remember with Alan’s clever visual aids 🙂 Never underestimate the power of a visual aid when it comes to setting magic props. Alan uses the lid to remind you the order of the puzzle pieces and a black dot in the corners of the pieces to tell you which direction each piece should go. It doesn’t sound much, but once you read the simple rule you’ll be able to create either puzzle without once referring back to the instructions – which is always a welcome feature in my book.
If you don’t have this one in your collection then it is time you did.
