The problem with the “find the unique item” challenges is that there’s usually multiple distinctions you can draw. For the ores one, for example, lapis ore was the only block that will drop multiple items without fortune.
tip for solving mazes since I saw a lot of people struggling: the only go right strategy only works if all walls inside the maze are attached to a perimeter and there are no free walls inside the maze. for a method that is useful in general for any maze that will not always get you the best time but will get you a relatively good time, use the flood method the flood method is done by assuming there are no walls between you and the target destination, and every time you hit a wall, reroute to the shortest path assuming there are no other obstacles by just going around that specific wall. by doing this every time you hit a wall, you should reach your final destination relatively quickly, but this method only works if you have a destination in mind or if you know where the destination is, so if the exit is hidden somewhere in the maze and you must find it, this method will be ineffective. for more details, look up 'flood fill algorithm'
Also they didnt even know Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, so they still dont know it lol Edit: Ik that purple isnt actually in the rainbow and that its actually Violet, but i dont really care.
Honestly, I thought in the last "Spot the Difference" puzzle that it was TNT, because you *don't* need redstone to craft TNT and the other three redstone blocks you *do* need redstone to craft. For the noteblock, you need redstone to craft. For a dispenser, you need redstone to craft. For redstone blocks, you need redstone to craft. The TNT just needs gunpowder and sand
The first puzzle was nice, there was actually a pattern to the place you were teleported to: everytime you stepped on a pressure plate, you would end up at a platform 2 platforms away from the one you were before, pretty clever.
F1NN: "They can all be activated by redstone." Skep: "Can they?" F1NN: "Yes put a redstone block next to each and they'll activate, except the actual redstone block ofcourse" Also F1NN: *jumps into TNT*
The teleport one I actually understand. Whatever pressure plate you go to, you go three in that direction. The blocks are just too confuse you. If your 2 away from the edge, you go to the next row or column, then one up or down.
It amazes me that they didn’t catch onto the color thing earlier? That was my first though, and it’s just amazing to me how people brains work so differently
I think the colour maze shows the difference in everyone’s personality. Some people think close minded and logical while others think outside the box and creative. I literally could not for the life of me figure out the rainbow thing even though I know the colours of the rainbow. Other people in the comments are saying how they figured it out right away but I even paused the video at times to think and could not figure it out. I probably would have done what skeppy did.
I thought the odd one out was the wood log too, but not because you cant make a mob out of it, but because you can place it in different ways to change the direction of the texture, but the others look the same, no matter how you place them
34:16 soul sand could've represented many different things. 1.) Soul sand is the only thing there that is found in the nether 2.) Soul sand is the only one there that cant be crafted into more items (snow - snowballs, iron block - iron ingots, oak log - oak planks 3.) Soul sand was the only thing that had an effect to it - slowness when walked on Personally, I think the builders should've spent more time on this section
Fun fact: The "always go left/right" guide to getting out of a maze won't always work if the entrance is *inside* the maze, as opposed to having the starting point located on the outer edge. Other fun fact: Infrared and ultraviolet are named for the colors that they border on the spectrum of visible light.
30:32 lol i figured it out pretty quick, it's which one you cant make like a golem thingy with. with soul sand you can make the wither, with iron an iron golem and with snow a snow golem
Dude for the "pick the door" my brain was going "well, dispensers make noise when u activate them, so does note block, and so does tnt, but Redstone doesn't" when it was legit just "haha redstone activate, the others get activated." *my brain hurts*
at the snow, soulsand,iron block,wood part there are multiple answers 1) snow-the only one that drops more then one thing 2)soulsand-only one from nether 3)iron block-the only one you can NOT find without crafting it 4)wood-the only one that you can NOT make mob from So all of them are technicaly right
Reasoning for choosing soulsand: The other 3 you can turn into more items/things. Snow = 4 Snowballs - Wood = 4 planks - Iron block = 9 Ingots - Soul sand - Nothing.
44:48 "All of them can be activated by redstone" "Can they?" "Put a redstone block next to all of these, they'll all activate. Except for the actual redstone block" "Oh really?" *Jumps in TNT* Big 1.9k likes.
46:10 all ore can be smelted if you have the ore block, like if you use silk touch enchant to get diamond ore, then you can smelt it to get a single diamond, idk why you would ever do that but you can
For people who is wondering what is the difference between Snow, Soul Sand, Iron Block, and Wood is, its because Snow can summon the Snow golem, Soul sand can summon the Wither, and the Iron block can summon the Iron golem, but Wood cannot summon anything.
at the spot the difference puzzle, he could have used “odd one out” instead of spot the difference. It makes things less confusing because Preston was looking for a difference instead of picking one that was the odd one out
Notable things I’ve observed from this: Finn: doesn’t know the rainbow Skeppy: also doesn’t know the rainbow Preston: g o o g l e BadBoyHalo: did amazing on this puzzle along with the rest of the team!!!
I found two ways to solve the fourth set of doors. 1. What was already said, red stone cannot be activated 2. The redstone is the only block with a recipe using only one item.
How about, letting stone buttons lead you back to the beginning of the maze and wood buttons transport you to the end? Now that would have been a nasty trap after all those buttons. xD
