Maze Tower Vault

WHAT IT IS:
 
Maze Tower Vault it’s a vault/safe and a fun game. The tower is made of 4 separate hidden vaults you can open. There is only one hidden compartment that can contain something small (coins, minifigures). There is a tricky combination to get all the steps right to open the main vault.
To open this compartment, you need to open all other compartments in this order:
1.    you need to open a compartment that contains a wheel. There is a hidden button to open this. The wheel is used to unlock the second compartment
2.    you need to find the second compartment and its button (it involves a rotating part)
3.    you can open the compartment with the button after unlocking it with the wheel
4.    when you open the second compartment, you reveal the third compartment button, press it and open the 3rd
5.    Inside the 3rd compartment there is the key to unlock the fourth – main compartment that contains the ‘treasure’
All the compartments are stuck so cannot slide out, you cannot open the main compartment if you don’t follow this order.
All compartments and buttons are hidden.
It is built like a ‘maze’, you need to follow the special order/steps to unlock the main compartment.

WHY I BUILT IT:
I found a mix of my old bricks in my grandad’s basement from when I was approx. 7 years old. This makes them 30+ years old.
Recently I was building some very small safe with my friend’s 12 and 6 yo kids. They liked the creation very much, they put some candies inside and open it again and again. So I decided to use my old bricks to make something even bigger, more special and fun so they could open those compartments all day. So in 2 months I had some late night sessions and built this prototype using only my old bricks.
It worked very good. It is very fun and satisfying to open the compartments, again and again.
The kids were so impressed, they play with it non-stop. Also all of my adult friends are impressed and like it very much.
 
WHY I BELIEVE IT WOULD MAKE A GREAT LEGO SET:
Because is very fun to build and to play with it. For kids and also for adults. It is very satisfying to press those buttons and hear the clicks when you open/close the compartments. It’s very ‘gameable’, it can be played over and over. It is Also can be used as a piggybank. Everyone that saw/tested it, asked where can they buy it :D
