Hide an entrance behind a waterfall you can switch on and off.
Every legend has a cave behind a waterfall. Yours has a switch: one press and the falls vanish into thin air.
- New skill Placing and picking up water with a dispenser
- Level 6 · Inventor's Lab
- Difficulty Intermediate
- Mode Creative
- Time 40–60 min
- Ages 13+
What you’ll build
Build a tall cliff with a hidden cave behind a doorway, then set a dispenser at the top loaded with water. One press of a secret button pours a waterfall over the entrance, and the next sucks it back up. Light the cave and hide the button somewhere clever.
Finish line: Your glowing cave hides behind a waterfall that pours and vanishes at the press of one hidden button.
Bonus challenge: Make the falls 3 wide with 3 dispensers on one button, so the whole cliff face pours at once. Does it switch off just as cleanly?
You’ll need
- A dispenser
- Water bucket
- A button
- Glowing blocks
- Cliff blocks
You choose
- My hidden cave's name
- Cliff style: stone, sandstone or
- What glows behind the falls
Stuck?
- Use a button, not a lever: the dispenser acts on each new pulse, and a lever only sends one when switched on.
- Water spreading everywhere? Dig the pool in front of the door so the falls drain into it.
- Falls don't vanish? Press again: the dispenser must pick up its own water source block.
