Log the ruin's glass, build a code window, see which glass blocks light.
The ruin's glass isn't random. Every coloured pane you brush up is a letter. Together they spell a message.

What you’ll build
Log the coloured glass you brushed from the ruins, then invent a colour alphabet and build a stained glass code window at your base. Hold a light showdown with three tiny huts roofed in clear, stained and tinted glass. Finally, dare a family member to crack your window.
Finish line: Your stained glass code window is built and you know which glass blocks the most light.
Bonus challenge: Make a two-pane code: every letter is a pair of colours. How many symbols can 16 colours make now, and can anyone still crack it?
You’ll need
- Sand and a furnace
- Dyes
- Amethyst shards
- Your brushed glass panes
- A family member to crack it
You choose
- My secret word
- My colour alphabet's first three letters
- Window shape: arch, circle or tall slit
Stuck?
- Stained glass is 8 glass around 1 dye. Smelt sand in a furnace to make the glass first.
- Tinted glass is 4 amethyst shards around 1 glass. It's the only glass that blocks light.
- Only a few panes from the ruin? They're random finds, so brush more gravel or use any colours you have.
