This is one of those mental / psychic items that you need to get out into the real world and perform, only then will you see the true strength of the effect.(In this case I do not think you would benefit from a video demo.)

The more you do it, the more confident you become and the more you can "jazz" as you go along. It is also a great way to start to add cold reading to your routines.

Although mine is a comparatively recent purchase, I have the USA version (the cards in question are about credit card size.) I would assume that the wording of a couple of the memories have been changed for the UK market ie baseball to football, movies to film etc.

Just to cover some of the as yet unasked question, it works particularly well in a hospitality/walk round situation, yes it can be repeated for the same group and there is nothing to reset.

Thanks for the review - ordered it!

I've performed Kioku several times now and the reactions are absolutely great!! My mum was freaked out and looked at me all weird when i started describing to her that she was little, and it had something or someone else involved; something smaller than you; an animal; Your first dog! [In fact i could of added to this as she told me the name before, i could of said Sasher! ]

Absolutely amazing effect!!!

Thanks guys....just to have to have it. Also just got 13 Steps to Mentalism by Corinda, what a fantastic tome!

Don't want to go off topic too far, but yes, incredible book. Lots of stuff that would look odd these days but lots of great stuff too, including simple things like a grain of rice in an envelope in a L&D test etc.

Yeah, I said that. They are all on your site, but if you add the photos to the proper product description pages, it will be better I think.

I really have to change the rating to a 10. I have used Kioku on alot of people now and going into their memory gradually releasing alot oof detail i got amazing reactions! I do really lvoe this, once you get it it might seem obvious to you but it simply amazes the specs!

We shall wait and see.

Well Homicide has not arrived yet and it seems C.U.P.S has done what I predicted.

Pah...I'll win the lottery one day anyway.

U go boy! I suffered the same fate, but can't wait to get it! Got a nice gig next month where this will go down well.

Could anyone who has this tell me if it is similar to Mental Yarn?

thanks

I don't have mental yarn but have seen the video on PM. I don't think these are the same, no. For a start Kioku has four cards with Memories on, not random objects. Kioku is more free as they can pick any card, so it can't be 'done down the phone' as said on Penguin with Mental yarn. Kioku can be performed at any distance and detail can be given about the memory they think of.

How long does it normally take to go from clicky order to British doorstep, Roth? Only I ordered on the 23rd of April and it hasn't turned up yet. I am, naturally, (excuse the pun) going mental.

This is the problem when we have more than one thread on the same thing - have a look at http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/sutra84888.p ... ght=#84888 . It looks like we're due for delivery on the same day so first one to get it can shout loudly to all and sundry, 'I gottit, I gottit, I gottit!'. OK, perhaps not .

I just bet every time I pull this from my pocket anywhere in the West Midlands, someone will say, 'Oh, look. It's that great trick that Mandy did yesterday."

I'm going to have the sleep under the letterbox and race out the moment it falls through onto my face to get a jump on you. Oh, and don't try to top me. I've been honing my bouncy and engaging delivery style by listening to the greats, so you've no chance.

Nah - every time I do this I'll tell 'em I'm Sexton Blake ! (Excuse me, I'm hearing the voices again - it sounds like Houdini this time - oooer!)
