Build a note block music box and a keyboard lock that opens for the tune.

The door only opens for those who listen. Press the music box, hear the tune, then find the keys that play it.

What you’ll build

Build a keyboard of tuned note blocks and a music box that plays a short three-note tune. Hook a lever lock up so only the tune's keys open the door, then challenge a tester to listen, match the notes and escape.

Finish line: Your singing door plays its tune, has eight tuned keys and opens only when the right levers are pulled.

Bonus challenge: Stretch the tune to 5 notes and let your tester hear the music box only twice. Mean? Yes. Fun? Absolutely.

You’ll need

  • Note blocks
  • Repeaters
  • Buttons
  • Levers
  • Redstone dust and torches
  • Your lock from Mission 721

You choose

  • My singing door's name
  • My secret 3-note tune (your own!)
  • The instrument (block under the note blocks)

Stuck?

  • Each tap on a note block raises it one step. Go past the top and it loops back to the lowest note.
  • A note block needs an empty air block above it, or it won't make a sound.
  • Notes all at once? Put a repeater between each note so they play one after another.
