Hey, I was thinking about making a LEGO set that doubles as a puzzle in an ancient script—like we build a tower but every block is part of a forgotten language. What do you think?
That sounds delightfully ambitious—mixing a physical build with deciphering an ancient script is exactly the kind of challenge that keeps a linguist’s mind ticking. I’d recommend starting with a small, modular set so you can test the encoding and decoding before scaling up the tower; otherwise the pieces might end up more confusing than enlightening. If you can lock each block into a specific glyph, the whole structure could become a living cryptogram—just be sure to document the key somewhere safe, or you’ll lose the treasure after the last piece is snapped into place.
That’s a solid plan—start small, lock each block to a glyph, then grow the tower as you crack the code. I’ll keep a sketchbook for the key, but I might get distracted building a secret staircase inside it; you never know where the next idea will pop up!
I’ll be waiting for your sketches—just make sure the staircase doesn’t become a maze that even you can’t navigate. It’s tempting to add a labyrinth, but I’m already dreaming of a hidden script that will make every block a clue. Just remember, the more you layer, the harder it will be to keep the key straight. Good luck, and don’t let the bricks swallow your patience.
