What you’ll build
Build a prank room where flipping the switch ON turns the light OFF, using a redstone torch to invert the signal. Predict what two and three flips in a row will do, then build and test each. Pick your best version and invite someone to try it.
Finish line: Your backwards room works, and you've tested one, two and three flips in a row.
Bonus challenge: Go full backwards: one lever that opens a door AND switches off a "Closed" light at the same time.
You’ll need
- Redstone
- Levers
- Redstone torches
- Signs
- Building blocks
You choose
- Name of your backwards room
- What the sign by the lever says
- Who you'll prank first
Stuck?
- Put the redstone torch on the opposite side of the block from the lever, so powering the block turns it off.
- If a torch stays lit, check the dust actually runs into the block the torch is attached to.
- Write your guess for each chain before you test it.
