This cup game is an online flash version of the ball and cup magic trick, the one where an object is placed under one of three cups, then the crossing begins and you have to keep a beady eye on the cup covering the ball. Its as simple as that to play, just don't take your eye off the screen for a moment. The game ends when you have run out of points by guessing incorrectly too many times.

Now, this is a straightforward version of the cup and ball game, a bit different from the one you may see in pubs and seaside amusements. There they try and make money by effectively conning innocent tourists who watch as the performer plays the game with people who pretend to be tourists but are actually accomplices.

They appear to win to encourage watchers to give it a go who then win the first round but lose thereafter as a range of tricks are used from magnetic balls that get stuck inside the cup to foam balls that can be pressed against the side of the cup and then drop down when the cup is moved.
