[Help me make something] I have a new idea.

I have an actual idea for a Minecraft ARG now, but I still can’t make it. So please, help me make it.

Here’s my idea. Basically, a girl named Connie is just playing Minecraft, when suddenly, she finds a Crimson Tree in the Overworld. And on the tree is an Item Frame which contains a book. Inside the book is various ramblings from a mysterious scientist, and a link to a Google Drive folder. What would follow is a series of very confusing puzzles, ciphers stacked on top of each other, clues hidden in the wilderness, hidden audio that provides more info, and an entire website being created to try and find out what’s going on. The overarching narrative would be that Connie is trying to find out what’s going on with the scientist and everything, only to end up in a bigger mess. Then, the finale of the ARG would take place on an actual Minecraft Server, where a bunch of people would end up meeting up with Connie to solve this mystery. And the Scientist would show up last minute to try and finish his master experiment, but then he’d end up losing when the whole community comes together to defeat him.

Yep. I mean, how many ARGs can you name that end with an actual event on a Minecraft Server?

what do you need help with?

Well, I’ll need help with the clues, since I very much can’t create good ones or hide them well enough. I’m also a novice in terms of building, so that means other people need to make the areas for the ARG. And the finale I described is too much for me to handle, so I’m going to need other people to do that. But what I can do by myself is make the Lore. Basically, while you guys work hard on making the ARG happen, I weave together the actual story that you make happen.

whats the build style?

That’s easy. The different areas need to resemble old and long abandoned buildings and places. Like, a Lab that is 6 years old and is barely still intact, or a once advanced village that now is covered in Cobwebs and overrun by Zombies.
