Tri-Phoggle Block

A three-state toggle designator: its marked blocks walk three stored shapes in turn.

Pattern​

Hover a tile to name it. Reading pattern diagrams explains the symbols.

7 × 7, one layer. Drawn flat on the ground, facing any compass direction.

  • Tier block × 21
    Every T is the same block, and that block’s Tier sets the rune’s strength.
  • Signature block × 4
    Each arm holds a Tier 1+ block other than the Tier block, or stays empty (air or Tier 0). Read by compass direction, the arms spell the rune’s signature.
  • Air or a Tier 0 block × 12
    Leave these as air, or fill them with Tier 0 blocks such as dirt or stone.
  • Activation block
    The glowing cell is the one to click.
  • Spent
    Cells with a corner mark are used up when the rune wakes.

How it works​

Tri-Phoggle Block forges a designator whose marked blocks remember three shapes. Right-click any block of a set and it walks to the next shape: first, second, third, and round again. All three shapes are yours to build.

Three-shape blocks never join a set with two-shape blocks, even under one signature. Drive them with a Tri-Lock Block, a Tri-Latch Block, or a Tri-Loggle Block.

Tips​

Three shapes make a drawbridge with a half-raised step, or a room that changes season.

See Toggles, locks, and phases.
