Play this came with at least four people. There has to be a "guesser" and a "giver." You can introduce the game to the group either by hinting that you can read minds or asking them if anyone knows how to play "Black Magic." Ask the "guesser" to leave the room and instruct the group to choose an item. That is all they need to know at this point.

Allow the "guesser" to uncover his eyes and start guessing what the object is. Go around the room pointing at objects; the "guesser" will keep repeating that the object is incorrect. Example: "Is it Henry's white t-shirt?" "No." "Is it the blue curtains?" "No," and so on.

Point at something black; this is the trigger. The "guesser" will then know that the next item is the correct one.

Point at the item that the group chose. The guesser will affirm that this is the correct item. Confounded by the correct guess, the other members of the group will usually demand to try again. They will probably keep attempting to discover the trick. If someone reveals that they do know the secret, take him into another room so he can share his guess privately without giving away the secret. If he is correct, he can then become a "guesser."
