What you’ll build

Legend speaks of treasure on a lost island. Write the legend in a book, then hide a trail of clue chests across three islands using directions, riddles and coordinates. Test it yourself, then send a seeker off and time the hunt.

Finish line: Your clue trail leads across three islands and your seeker found the legendary treasure.

Bonus challenge: Add a false trail: one sneaky clue that leads to a decoy chest with a sign saying 'The sea laughs at you'. The real trail must still work!

You’ll need

  • Chests
  • Signs
  • A book and quill
  • A treasure worth finding
  • A family member to be the seeker

You choose

  • The legend's name
  • The treasure at the end
  • Who I'll challenge to follow the trail

Stuck?

  • Seeker went the wrong way? East is +X and south is +Z, so check your directions.
  • Follow your own clues word for word before anyone else tries them.
  • Make sure the seeker has Show Coordinates turned on in the world settings.
