My LEGO Network walkthrough

The My LEGO Network is a social network designed to be kid safe. You can't compose your own messages, your picture is an avatar you construct out of minifigure parts, you can't really upload music or videos or anything that could be offensive. So what's the fun? They've written a crazy resource game into this based on the concept of building with LEGO bricks, from LEGO blueprints. You use your MLN page to generate resources, and when you build each masterpiece, you will gain a rank in the network. This is pretty new and not well documented, so as I go through this, I will try to note the necessary steps for each rank.

Initial Setup:

Required: N/A

  1. Put out your LEGO Tree Module right away.

Rank 1 - Crimson Apple

Required: 12 red bricks

  1. Construct an Apple (1 red brick)
  2. Mail apple to Echo
  3. Collect Apple Pie blueprint attachment from Echo's response.
  4. Go to Echo's page, and add Farmer John as a friend
  5. Make 5 Apples (5 red bricks)
  6. Make an Apple Pie
  7. Send Apple Pie to Farmer John
  8. Collect Crimson Apple blueprint from Farmer John's response.
  9. Make 1 Apple (1 red brick)
  10. Make Crimson Apple masterpiece (5 red bricks)

Rank 2 - Royal Hive Queen

Required: 159 red bricks, 17 red flowers, 71 honey pots, plus a couple of worker bees worth of red bricks, depending on luck

  1. From Farmer John's page, visit and befriend: Flora, Henrietta, and Beekeeper Bill
  2. From Beekeeper Bill's page, befriend Bartlebee
  3. Make 5 Apples (5 red bricks)
  4. Visit Henrietta's page and trade 5 red apples for the mason jar blueprint
