The Flash Mind Reader

The “Flash Mind Reader” game below is a mystery — it seems to work magically, unless you think about it mathematically.

I have put a screenshot. To play the game, just click on it and you will get a swf (Flash) file. Unfortunately, WordPress does not allow to embed flash files, so I had to put it this way (i.e. as a link).

How to play ?

1) Choose any two digit number (i.e., any 2 digit number greater than 9)
2) Add the two digits together
3) Then subtract the total in 2) above from your original number in 1) above

For example if you choose 59: 5+9 = 14.
59 minus 14 will give you your answer (45).

4) Now find your answer on the chart.
5) Concentrate on the symbol beside it.
6) Then click on the crystal ball.
7) It will show you the symbol you are thinking of!

It is guaranteed that to work, until you play it properly i.e. as specified above in steps.

So now what are you thinking ?

I know, what you are thinking. How in the hell is this possible? Well its nothing more than a very very very simple mathematics.

I also have solution for this. But please try it first yourself. Because, once you have looked at the solution, all the fun will vanish. Click here to get the solution.
