god damn. what a perfect collaboration
Pinned for clout
and what a clout it is
@@ChrisRamsay52 that was fast
Oh an iDubbbz comment...what's up psycho?
Ayo 😳
This is legitimately the best product placement I've ever seen. They really went all out on this one.
agreed. i hate product placement but hats off to these guys. job excellently done 👍🏻
Right, when I clicked this i expected a pretty low effort box. But they went all out.
if you're unfamiliar with riot games, check out the league of legends world finals cerimonies and some of their movie/animations. they really keep a high standard
@@pdjinn Not to mention all the music production, the Universe page for the Lore and even the board games.
At this point the actual Moba is probably the worst product
@@swoppydo3794 agreed.
The bar for sponsored content has just been raised. Well played, Riot
Must have been on the floor
@@juggmkj It usually is with sponsorships
Agreed. Kudos to Riot for understanding and appreciating marketing rather than just dangling money in exchange for plugging Rai.. Well, you know that one. Impressive the way it both fit the brief for game context, and being a well thought out and intricate puzzle. I get the feeling though that I'd see the Victory! plaque, be pleased with myself, and then probably curse trying to put it all back together. Just as well that one came with an Antoine, presumably shipped in their own well ventilated box to help with resetting it?
That’s riot for ya lol
@@brolohalflemming7042 they needed to recover somehow from seraphine
You can really tell that the people at Riot Games were allowed to indulge their imaginations and run free with this one. I love it when you get to see how much people love their work.
The thing that makes Riot so cool is that they have a bunch of creative geniuses and people that are willing to throw conventional means and logic out the window. That's why their music is so cool, their animations are amazing, and their Worlds stages are so mesmerizing. I'd wish they could translate some of that genius into balancing the game though, lmao.
@@KidKat__ I don't see the logic being thrown out of the window in this box. It is fairly logical to me, with few tricky parts, but I haven't seen the entire video yet. It is definitely a very interesting design. True that RIOT hires the best people and pay them well. Competition is high and the company is high profile, so they can afford it. Most of the big IT companies have dozen of interviews each applicant has to complete and they are rejected when there is the slightest doubt, for instance, 10 people vote and when 1 person says "no" then the application is rejected ;)
@@pavel9652 I didn't mention the box at any point. I was referring to their music/art department.
@@KidKat__ The whole conversation is about the puzzle box, but I get it, you didn't mean it ;)
@@pavel9652 I was complimenting their creative folks, not just the puzzle makers. But yeah, I get why my comment could be confusing.
This is one of those things that you can tell the creators/designers put a lot of love and care into
lol.. nah... Riot just payed some dude to make a puzzlebox based on runesterra..
And the puzzlebox maker put alot of love into it..
@@thomasriddle8877 whoever did it- did it well and riot games was cool to even think about getting one to send because a lot of brands will just give you a discount code for your subscribers and ofc money to promote.
@@lem0nwhip371 still promotion and still makes my comment true.
and And LBH here, Riot has a boatload of cash, it was likely 1 person on a board meeting that broached this idea, someone that watches these types of videos online, or was following the trend of corporations using these types of marketing techniques to bring attention to their products, and theres a bunch out there, making specialized boxes for influencers, or puzzleboxes,etc... It does well to bring attention, and decent PR points..
While 1 person in the company likely looked through instagram for craftsman that build these types of things and got the best one they could find, sent him an email and they went back and fourth a little on how it should try to reflect the game its advertising itself.. Like using the cards,etc...
Is it cool? yeah.. but its just marketing...
@@thomasriddle8877 But that doesn't make the og comment less true. Who ever made this could have still put a lot of love and care into this puzzle even if it is just Marketing.
@@joegaddy2030 Lol and you basically just said what i said.. i never said there wasnt love put into it, if you actually read what i said.. Whoever made it was paid to do it, and THEY put alot of love into it.. But riot had little to do with it, It was just marketing.. and they paid a puzzle box company to make the thing...

@@AndrewSmith-nj8zh gnar: shugi shugi shugi

Now THIS is a brand deal where the sponsor actually puts effort into not just the deal but knowing the person with whom they’re dealing!
Riot is really really good when it comes to promoting and communication with their player base
@@scumbagalfa5609 True. But got nerfed hard on balancing their main game
@@hansalt6695 actually the balance team is doing good recently, but the client team tho
@@scumbagalfa5609 ye sure, remember akali in shroud wasnt targeted by turrets for like a year?
@@edvinasa6746 ahh yes.. so? I mean.. i couldnt name a better gaming company than riot thoo..
Man, as a person who played every single The Room game when they came out, I really never thought I would see real life puzzle boxes with this amount of depth and detail. Yet, here we are lol seeing these makes me so excited for the future of puzzles. Imagine a business that made a ton of puzzle boxes similar to this, and people could come sit in a room and do them with their friends. I would never leave that place.
con: one time thing. Each time you would need new puzzle. That's insane.
@@JV-un7qw yeah, but imagine the HOURS spent with your friends trying to figure out how to solve the puzzle and when you solve it... you HAVE to leave it like it was never solved
@@leancamo800 I imagine yet another few hour putting all thing at their proper places.
i was about to say this gave me very much The Room vibes hahaha
@@JV-un7qw yeah!!!! That's the real puzzle
The amount of moving parts and electronics is insane. It's a really intricate puzzle that uses all aspects of the game. Good job in solving it.
Hands down, this is my favorite puzzle ever.
We miss you bro
JAKE! Love your channel bro 💪
Thank you so much!
From MrBeast?
It’s the one and only JAKE THE VIKING
Finally a sponsor who doesn't just give you 50k to shout them out for a minute but actually puts the effort in.
he didnt even put in the effort to at least learn the factions names ..
@@dhaougdiri8050 i agree
50K?!
@@edybanciu7052 you know some sponsors give upwards of 300K to 1M for a sponsor deal right? How do you think MrBeast can give away millions every week?
@@dhaougdiri8050 About as much effort as you put into punctuation. I wonder which skill will be more handy in life.
I think this is actually my favorite puzzle box Chris has ever solved. I could tell there were some cuts to remove moments of floundering/frustration, but everything he did that was shown was really intuitive to my brain and it felt like I could've solved it myself as well (I don't always think that, since I'm don't do/buy puzzles and don't have practice).
same here. this didn't just look like it was tough to figure out without being frustrating, the quality of the craftsmanship is unbelievable too - loved every part of this!
When riot does stuff like this I just get so blown away with how genius they can be.
HOWTO: Get 250,000+ people to watch a 25 minute relevant Advertisement without skipping in 2020. Brilliant work Rito Games and thank you Chris for showing this off to us!
Now I wonder what would be more expensive: making this puzzle box, or spamming 250,000 people with ads.
@@hubertnnn much cheaper to spam ad's, but much less engagement which is key to marketing
People don't hate ads, they hate shit content. I don't mind watching a 25 minutes ad if it's that good :)
@@InsaneGroove just because its also an ad doesnt mean it has to be its main purpose, seems like they also wanted to make something kick ass cool
@@Hbizzjohnson Perfectly put. In fact, it's Riot Games so that's not surprising!
Quality craftsmanship, next to impossible to top this one.
I love the way it uses electronics and sensors to make apparently mystical things like placing the cards in the right order on top of the box without any connection trigger other things. Presumably there's an RFID chip or similar in the cards, but that's something to think about afterwards; it's just part of the magic of the puzzle while solving.
This is one of the best puzzles I’ve ever seen. There’s like a surprise at every turn and so many little puzzles in a puzzle. So Dope! 🤯
never saw the key actually being used, that key is freakin epic though... and imagine if they would have given him a super special ingame code for a personilized card just for him like a joker, or an acer, or something like that, that would have been super freakin epic
Lol this was my one remaining thought, "does the key even get used for something?"
The puzzlebox creations Instagram said that the key is what started the green gem button game.
Yea I was thinking that it would fit in the main hole if he would have pushed those pieces back to their original positions. I guess we'll never know...
or even just a great card with an individual skin variation or sth.
@@maaaaaakguyver seems fake to me
Imagine him as a grandfather then his grand son finding that in the attic or basement it will be so cool
Grandson: Grandpa Chris, is that a bomb over there in the attic...?!?
Grandpa: N...n...no... that's not what it looks like...
Grandson: So what it is?
Grandpa: It's just... a puzzle... from game...
Cool thought
He could hide a deck of cards for his grandson/daughter and once the little one solves it, he/she will become an extraordinary magician.
Cute thought but grandpa would just say I was paid to open it as an advertisement for a game when I was a young man working very hard.
He should really do this but put money in them.
I think we can all agree that this exceeded everyone's expectations. wow.
it's rito we didn't expect much tbh.
it's lol, not wow
thought it was over when the lid went off :D
Especially considering riot games.
@@MauiiSan Riot's pretty great at everything otherr than making a game
Chris, I've been watching your dope $10,000 $30,000 $25,000 puzzles. Man from them all this truly had my face gleaming. The designer behind this puzzle hats off. So much fun to watch.
I just love seeing a creator genuinely love what they do. The joy and excitement he has for each and every change in the puzzle is amazing!
The fact him getting to the next step, and lighting up like a little kid in a candy store every time, doesn’t matter the puzzle, or difficulty, is literally the most amazing thing to see. No matter how many puzzles this man does, him getting excited. Our inner child always fighting it’s way out for magic and mystery
This. This is the magic of Chris Ramsay videos.
The fact the reward for everything out of this was a deck of playing cards tells me that the Riot staffer that came up with this idea DEFINITLY knows your full MO.
i'm amazed how lowkey Chris reacted to a custom made 1 of kind card set! :/
@@g60force he has so many decks of cards that he was more stoked on the box but I don’t blame him
@@g60force how do you know is one of a kind?
@@MrOlyevo It can't be bought from riot. You would need a third party or make it yourself. (granted it wouldn't cost much to get a third party to put art on the back of a deck of cards for you)
@@escope1734 Then they should make it a product and they should sell it on their website, people would buy it.
I loved the beginning about all those warriors and mages and stuff
(Super dramatic!)
When I first saw the puzzle box I wasn't very impressed. However as it went along that perception changes quickly. That PB was dope! Well done.
This is actually one of the coolest puzzle boxes I've ever seen, riot games went all out.
THIS IS TOO GOOD A CROSSOVER, IM NOT WORTHY OF THIS EPICNESS
IKR!!!!!!!!!
Kindly step aside for the worthy ones
And yet you are here
@@beetlejuice3x309 calm down, no reason to get passive aggressive
Oh ya
I do honestly LOVE how you yo do nothing but promote and encourage the puzzle makers. Can't even imagine the work that goes into those. Just love how there is never any negative feedback.
this is hands down the best box ive ever seen
As a person who play runeterra daily, this is easily one the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Absolutely amazing.
abso-f*-ing-lutely :D
As a person who doesn’t play runeterra daily, this is easily one of the coolest things i’ve ever seen
ikr I literally pogged when he lifted the lid and it showed the actual board of the game
surprised i havent seen this on the subreddit
The puzzle yeah, but the video is extremely painful to watch as the guy has no idea what the game is about.
Someone really loved making that puzzle, so many references to Legends of Runeterra and the whole universe. Its amazing and I really would love to have one of these. simply amazing
Dropping some small knowledge to what the symbols are and about the cards.
The first card we got was Viktor, a scientist from Piltover which is a highly technological part of the world, who is creating mechanical parts to replace them with parts of your body to improve the functions of the human body. He is all about evolving and progress.
The second card was Riven, a warrior from Noxus who was involved on the attack on Ionia and felt guilty because she was trying to find out how her sword can be destroyed (its infused with magic) and someone on Ionia tried to break the sword but got stabbed by one of the magical pieces of the sword, since then the sword is broken into pieces and they connect together during her ultimate ability. She lived in Ionia for a while after the attack because of the guilt but recently she got captured by warriors of noxus and brought back to noxus.
The third card was Zoe, also known as the trickster or the Aspect of Twilight. She was a normal girl and ascended to the Aspect of Twilight through Mount targon, which is a magical place in Runeterra. Zoe is thousand of years old although she looks like a child and her whole thematic is about trickery and fooling others. One piece of her lore involves her beeing the reason why a war between normal humans and Demons, also known as the Darkin, ended because she gave the humans the power to seal the Darkins into weapons. She also chained the cosmic dragon Aurelion Sol, the creator of the universe to the world of Runeterra and sealed his power in a crown, which you can even see ingame.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Coming to the symbols, which you know are faction symbols.
starting with the "Sword dragon" which actually is a serpent, this is Bilgewater, a place full of pirates. The Serpent represents the monsters of the sea and the sword represents the pirates. Bilgewater is also close to the shadow lands to which we come later.
second, "the ice thing" (which is actually not too far off) is mount targon, a giant mountain in Runeterra which reaches up into the night sky. Everyone who climbs that mountain is granted cosmic powers and will be called an Aspect. Many tried to climb the mountain but its a long journey and the mountain is covered in snow and ice so it is not an easy task and many die on the way to the top so they never ascend.
third one, "fire", which is Ionia and represents the flow of magic in Ionia. Everything in Ionia is magical, especially the earth and nature. For example, if you chop down a tree in Ionia and you do not plant a new seed, nature will attack you until you die or you plant a new seed. Trees become walking giants, the earth splits up to consume you, water tries to drown you. Ionia basically is full of self protection and always attacks you when you take something away without giving something back.
fourth symbol, "sword", is Demacia and the sword and the wings around it represent the god they believe in in demacia, named Kayle. Kayle is also an ascended that got her powers from her mother who ascended on mount targon. She is an angelic warrior with wings and a sword. People in Demacia believe and pray to her and Demacia is a city in which they are strictly against magic of any form. They even build everything out of petricite, a material which drains magical power and stores them. Whenever you get caught in Demacia and you are a mage, you get thrown into prison with petricite chains and gauntlets and you probably will never be released. Lorewise Demacia is in changing spot, Sylas, a champion from League of Legends, was also a Mage imprisoned in Demacia but little did they know that his powers actually steal magical power to enhance it and redirect it. Because of the petricite, which stores all magic ever consumed by it, he just touches any kind of object and absorbs the magic to redirect it. That way he escaped the prison because he befriended himself with the princess of Demacia (which surprisingly is magic user but she hides it from everyone) and he blasts his way out of the prison and is now forming an army to free the magical users.
Then there is the fifth symbol, "eyeball", aka the shadow Isles. They once were the blessed Isles but a king that we only know as the ruined king seeked for a way to revive his dead wife and he thought he found that way on the blessed Isles, although the people there told him not to try or it will end in a tragedy. The king just murdered everyone and tried to resurrect his wife but with all the stored magical powers withing the blessed isles and the undead magical powers the whole island exploded and changed to the shadow isles, a place in which the dead are alive again and they try to consume souls. The shadow isles are covered in the Black mist, which spreads outwards during the Harrowing (known as halloween in our world) and reaches to the shores of Bilgewater in which the humans try to fight of the undead. Everyone who dies loses their soul to the Warden of the shadow isles, Thresh, who basically is the keeper of all souls.
Last on the box is the "cogwheel" which represents Piltover, the highly technological city which is basically "the future" because they use technical machines to handle all sorts of stuff while all the other regions dont use mechanical machines. They are the leaders in terms of technology but they also hide secrets. Like the city below Piltover is called Zaun, which is basically the slums of Piltover. In Zaun humans replace their limbs with technical parts to be the conqueror of the slums and be stronger than anyone else there. This is also the place they work around with chemtech, a chemical weapon implanted into technology which basically works like acid. Then there is also the secret in piltover on which all the power is coming from, because all that power is stored in crystal which people just know as hextech crystals but only a few know that those crystals were actually living beeings known as the brackens who turn into crystals to survive for century until they recharge their magical power to awaken once again and keep the earth alive. Piltovians found those crystals and took them with them and are now using them as infinite magical power.
There are missing some regions on Box, like Noxus, the enemy of Demacia, the Freljord, an icy land in the north of runeterra, Shurima, a desert at the southern part of the world and some minor regions like Ixtal (spoken as ishtal) or Icathia/The Void which basically is another world with void creatures that come out of a Void portal in Icathia.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also the box is full of details, like the board is Piltover themed on one side (the green one) and Targon themed on the other side (the grey one). This box is truly amazind and alot of worked was put into this. A really nice puzzle you got there =).
Thank you so much! We loved creating this one 👍
Thank you so much for this post, it made the puzzle even more enjoyable for those of us who didn’t know the game 😀
Wow
@@PuzzleboxCreations-PBC Really amazing. How many man-hours would you say it took for the entire thing?
@Night Jisso Nice TLDR but you got somethings wrong, Zoe didn't give peoples power to enslaved the Darkins in weapons, that was the previous aspect of twilight Myisha, also she didn't enslave Aurelion Sol either, that was the work of Pantheon (the aspect of war for those unfamiliar), she is actually a really good friend with the "space puppy" because she is the only one that he can trust and doesn't want to get something from him. Also, she didn't ascend through Mount Targon, the aspect of twilight granted her it's power just because she was fun. Lux or Luxanna isn't the princess of Demacia, the prince is Jarvan the 4th, Lux is from the Crownguard family, which is a noble family that, as the name suggests, protect the royal family.
I love how Chris' expectations went from, the stuff is glued on, idk if I should pull it. To one of the best puzzles this channels seen lol
the thing in the back at the end that says ''hot dang '' and ''solved'' is REALLY satisfying especially the sound!
Riot has such a way of going "We could venture into that market and make something amazing." First K-Pop, then Puzzle Boxes. Absurdly cool.
Pretty sure they did the mechs vs. minions board game as well.
@@bdizzle2144 yup cant wait to buy that next week.
They sure can venture random stuffs, and make it insane level
They're SO good at marketing, it's absolutely mind blowing. Most companies just follow the hottest trend. Riot Games? They SET the trend.
funny you mention k-pop, becasue the ending song of this video is Pop Stars by K/DA from the League of Legends game :D
@@yournamehere004 yup, I was referring to K/DA! And also to point out that the song at the end of the video is the in-game version from LoR, not sure if it is in LoL. It is based on PopStars, but not exactly the song.
"They are not random screws at all!"
Puzzle boxes in a nutshell XD
lol
That's better than any of the "100k puzzle boxes " you have opened. That was so well thought out , INCREDIBLE!
i really like Legends of Runeterra, so seeing you solve this puzzle is amazing!
And hearing you call Shadow isles "The eyeball thing" is hillarious
As a life-long tcg fan, I cannot describe how absurdly cool this whole thing was.
I don't know what gets me more crazy: he solving this or the person who created it
The person who created it for sure. That’s some SAW II type stuff
Person who created it I think
They had to set it up so that each thing will connect to another thing without stumping whoever is completing the puzzle.
P.S. I am not discrediting or insulting Chris in any way, what he does is still amazing
@@Pindr207well, I get where you are coming from, but remember, these puzzles were made to be solved, you know.
What you're saying is basically that it takes less brains to fully engineer a working puzzle with working moving parts and electronics and lights and shiny buttons all while making sure it is not too hard for Chris, nor too easy.
Also, unneeded sexist comment right there.
What makes me crazy is constantly considering whether I should still like my crush or not
@@Pindr207 Essays? I was merely bored, and it didn't even take like 2 minutes of my time. Also, did you go to school or not? I legit had a stroke trying to read your gosh damn "roast"
Edit: just checked, and you said that "boys are dumb" and then connected that to having low IQ. How in the world does gender determine intelligence?
I’m in complete & utter awe.
Have watched it several times.
The minds of those that come up with these puzzles blow me away.
I’d love 2 spend a couple of hours speaking with these geniuses.
Well done Chris.
Throughly loving catching up on all ur videos.
I love it how people are putting a deck of cards as a reward, knowing you would appreciate it. But nah dead set those cards are dope
This Was WAYYY better than the expensive futuristic puzzle in terms of electronic.
That part when he assemble the card and it opens was mindblowing
Actually thought that would be the case when I saw the patterns on the backside, was thinking there are probably NFR chips in the wooden cards
@@KungKokkos Same figured that out on the first card.
@@pbsixgun6 So smart much wow.
DUDE the fact that RIOT and you somehow teamed up is too cool. Congrats!
Love the key on a chain. It reminds me of the story about the elephant tied with a bit of string at its birth, and even into his muscular adulthood, it still felt bound by that piece of string. He was right that he could rip the key off, but it was like a subtle reminder by the puzzle designers that sometimes there is fun in constraint.
That feeling when you’re ment to be editing but you’re like “just one more puzzle video with Ramsey”…. My procrastination has found it’s ultimate friend! But I love it!
The amount of research they did to make this for you! Even including a deck of cards at the end! So much respect for the Riot team!!!
I doubt they did the research themselves. They likely contracted the job out to a puzzle builder.
@@johnd2331 More like a company.
I mean knowing he likes and uses deck of cards is the least amount of research ever to be fair.
It was outsourced to a puzzle box maker
It's like you guys don't watch the video all the way through. that deck of cards? that's what a well known puzzle box maker does as the "prize" for solving the puzzle. Instead of giving the Riot team credit give the credit to the guy who made the box, because all Riot did was go "hey mate can you make a legend of runeterra box for us?" then pay the guy and the dude probably had to research about the game to make the box fit the theme.
but sure guys let's thank Riot for this one. Sheep.
Has to be one of the sickest THEMED puzzle boxes ever!!!
The Person who built this is a Genius...And God i love this Channel so much.....Thanks for taking Us on these wild journeys of Puzzles...
"Warriors to their swords, tinkerers to their technology, and mages, to their spells" bloody brillant, mate
Next Riot Games promotion: Solve our League of Legends balance problems.

That's a puzzle box that noone can solve.
@@ghostkill221 you are damn right
solved...just uninstall it helps
@@majkvukas it helps for you but it doesnt help everyone
I was not expecting the actual puzzle to be that great considering it was part of a sponsorship but dang, this was an absolutely amazing puzzle!!
I bet the team that put this together thoroughly enjoyed watching you solve it
25:17
that background amazes me MORE than the puzzle box!
Usually I skip all advertising, and seeing paid promotions in videos makes me AVOID the game... But THIS is how it should be done. The effort and thought put into this advertisement by making a unique puzzle is just brilliant. Headed off to download the game now!
Do you like the game?
Yea, same here. And I don't even play games like this 😅
@@infinitecontent7108 I'll reserve judgement until I've given it a week or so, but so far its enjoyable.
@@Tromain666 If you continue to play the game, I'd recommend "Swim" on UA-cam. You will either hate him or love him, but he has some really good videos to learn from and some that even go into the math of cardgames - also some funny ones. There are a few more fun gameplay UA-camrs like Mogwai, Control and GrappL (and Snnuy) aswell.
How's the game so far? :D
Must admit, if a video is sponsored I'd usually avoid liking it or even watching it sometimes depending on the video length but gotta say, when a company/sponsor actually puts effort into their sponsorship outside of 'here, have money, promote our game', they deserve respect for it, this was/is a dope puzzle and amazing to see such quality from a sponsor, congrats on beating it and here's to hoping we get to see more sponsors doing awesome stuff like this.
P.S. I did like the video lol, this one was worth it.
Amazing job Puzzlebox Creations!!! My favorite puzzle box evarrr!!!
Wow! The amount of engineering, carpentry and toolmaking in this puzzle. Just wow.
This is one of the sickest puzzles EVER. GG Riot Games!
Bit of info on the symbols and characters this puzzle uses, for people new to the whole thing...
Symbols:
1) The sea-serpent and cutlass = Bilgewater, lawless pirate city.
2) The mountain top with a pierced halo = Mt. Targon, basically Mt. Everest with star magic.
3) The serpent encircling a flame = Ionia, the "mystical Orient" region.
4) The winged greatsword = DEMACIA! Old, fairly small kingdom that REALLY hates magic.
5) The flaming skull = The Shadow Isles, cursed land of undying ghosts and ghouls.
6) They key and cog = Piltover/Zaun, the twin cities of progress, with steam-punk and chem-punk themes respectively.
7) The Axe and skull = Noxus, expansionistic, inclusive kratocracy (rule of the strong). This one wasn't on the box, but it's my favourite faction so I'm including it anyway, lol.
Characters:
1) Victor, the Machine Herald: from Piltover/Zaun, believes mechanical augmentation is key to furthering human evolution.
2) Riven, the Exile: Ex-soldier with a powerful runic blade who defected from Noxus after seeing chemical warfare used.
3) Zoe, the Aspect of Twilight: child from Mt. Targon, host to a cosmic entity who heralds great change (usually catastrophes).
Nice to see a fellow riot fanboy
When I will be having kids. I'll the lores to them. Telling them they are fairytales.
@@definitelynotleo1184 that's what i do to my child, telling them lore of Runeterra lol
One thing I'd like to point out. Demacia is not an old city, quite the opposite in fact. It's pretty new compared to other regions.
How to get this box?
The puzzle box is gorgeous! Hats off to the craftsmen, outstanding work. They surely know their craft!
That was phenomenal. Love the anticipation and pure logical path these ingenious marvels weave us through their webs. Thanks for bringing me along the journey. You Rock It!!
I swear... sometimes Riot just continues to amaze me. Music, puzzles, animations, story telling, and world building.
The only thing for them left to do is make a real life board game and a movie. Then they've covered everything
@@royroos8036 they already have a physical boardgame 😊 Mechs vs Minions, its currently top 40 out of maybe 30,000 boardgames lols
gonna be completely honest here. this is the first puzzle box video i actually sat down and watched the full way through. not skip through, not keep it on in the back ground. i sat back, and enjoyed every second of it.
Chris: I know they have faction names, but I’m new to this so sorry if you’re screaming at your computer right now
Literally me: IT’S FRICKIN DEMACIA, SWORD WITH WINGS!!!
Mind blown! 🤯 Such a cool and satisfying puzzle box. I just started watching your channel about a month ago. Really trying to enjoy each puzzle and not binge them all in a row. This one was really great. I am enjoying them all.
Wow, just wow. If Riot made Hextech chest puzzle as big as that chest in Legends of Runterra that would be dope man! I never expected this to happen!
If ya'll don't know what is the Hextech chest im talking about, its the chest in League of Legends a Riot Games' game.
Riot really is the best at everything besides balancing league ffs.
Also LoR
Ty
😂😂 Riot should be a Marketing agent instead of game company 😂😂 their promotion product(Music video, cinematic video, puzzle box,...) is 1000 time better then their game 😂😂
The joke about league exists to fund other things that Riot do is being more than a joke everyday
Hire Paul to fix our game
Great video, excellent box. The best I've seen for design and planning.
Absolutely amazing puzzle. And the cards were a nice cherry on top. I think a fun thing I noticed is that when you unlocked the chain for the key it did a simon says style reveal of the light sequence which was the true "key" to opening the top. Loved that.
Ngl, looking at him give names to the symbols of the regions was hilarious.
Yeah, I'm just assuming he recorded the intro after doing the puzzle, or just forgot. Doesn't bother me, this is sweet.
EDIT: 20:20 when he says "screaming it at your computer", it's a real DEMACIA moment.
Goddamn Riot is just a beast when it comes to their products. This is everything I never knew I wanted as a tie-in to their game.
they only hire Seniors (10+ years in domain), or leadership with 5+ years in domain, so of course they are professionals :)
This was an amazing puzzle! One of my favorite puzzles I have seen you solve. Just amazing
The plugs appeared to be standard 3.5mm audio jacks and each one probably had a specific audio signal it sent to identify each plug.
I can only imagine the cards used NFC since they had to be in a fairly precise location and order but no physical interlock. If the order didn't matter then magnets would suffice but NFC is pretty cheap (haven't checked recently but I think it was less than $10 for the bag of NF215 chips I bought and even cheap Smart Phones have NFC capabilities now).
Anytime a puzzle has a keyhole: "Someone call the LockPickingLawyer!"
Hahaha...My other fav website...dont forget about bosnian Bob !!
In any case, this is all I have for you today!!! haha
I'm not sure which is more impressive, your ability to solve this or their ability to make it in the first place. Massively entertaining.
Lock picking lawyer is my shitt. Another amazing UA-cam channel
problem was that this keyhole didn't have a use lmao
The fact that 2 spell mana cristals light up because he played Zoe turn 1 Riven turn 3 and Viktor turn 4 is really cool
It is impressive that you catched that detail
But you can't play riven, viktor and zoe in the same deck 😛
@@opaaaalgahawy5475 yeah that's true but idk maybe he is playing lab xD
@@opaaaalgahawy5475 It's probably a Tri-Region Singleton Gauntlet deck or in expedition
@@opaaaalgahawy5475 in normal matches you can't but there are other game modes😛
That is awesome! You are very lucky to have been given this to play with.
That has to be the most awesome puzzle box I've ever seen.
Oh an also it would have helped to play the game you're advertizing at least once^^
Awesome collaboration!
Imagine solving this puzzle only to find a little Devil Teemo smiling at you.
Imagine solving it to get a deck of cards...
@@juggmkj Seeing as how Chris collects decks of card, that was the perfect ending for him. It was customized to fit him, every puzzle designer who makes puzzles for Chris to solve knows this
@@juggmkj if you watch his puzzle contents, you'll see most of the prizes for solving puzzles built for him, are a costumized deck of cards.. he's an avid collector of decks of cards
These sound effects are so well timed that they keep making me feel like it's the box making these sounds and not just incredible editing. The editing combined with this insane box made this so awesome to watch
Lol right? Such juicy sounds fx
when he said "it's getting louder" i started to think that the box WAS making sounds
This is probably one of my favorite puzzles! It just kept opening up into more mystery!
I´ve seen only few videos from your channel, but I´m absolutely stunned how creative the artisians are to create such impressive, suprising and gorgeous puzzle boxes!
Love how Chris just has no idea of those game references like the champ capsule and the Viktor card

I love these puzzle box videos, and this is one of the best by far. Wow.
This is one my favorite from the channel, really beautifully designed visuals and puzzles
I literally have to download the game out of respect. This is just beautiful.
@james avery ???????? What’re you on about? The only transactions you do in Legends of Runeterra is purely cosmetic, you don’t need to buy cards or anything to be able to play, and they’re super generous with the amount of cards and wildcards they give, as in that many hearthstone players praise and left HS to play LoR cause it was just better.
@@ley5532 Amen
@james avery xddd
@james avery The game does *nothing *to push you into buying microtransactions.
@james avery I don't look at commerce in a negative way though
Whomever built this is a genius, thats incredible
Paul with Puzzlebox Creations. can confirm he is a genius.
Low standards =(
@@Holy_hand-grenade Can also confirm that Paul is a genius!
Awesome. So glad you put these up. There's no way I could ever afford to play with these types of puzzles, thanks for giving me the next best thing watching you solve them for me.
One cannot appreciate enough the thought that goes into all of this and the sophisticated craftsmanship. Pure art.
RIOT NEEDS TO DO MORE SPONSORSHIPS LIKE THIS
18:14, looks like you missed that card placement was giving you energy.
I saw this too and went looking for a comment
I don’t get it
Ok this is fuuukin EPIC. They did such a good job! I could tell with your expressions that you weren't expecting much, especially since you were so worried about breaking it, but when those lights light up and the latch release sound went, that look on your face read "kid in a frickin, THIS is why I do this!" Lol
What are the chances that out of 5.5k comments, I find someone I know from other comment sections 😂 hope you’re doing well, dear!
I’m still loving watching these vids it’s a fantastic way to chill and relax. Great job with all of these.
As a software developer I know how hard it is to make something "fool-proof", or "monkey-test proof".
A craft like a box like this one, they must take into account the tries and "abuse" of the totally oblivious puzzler.
Amazing stuff!
Dev here. Its pretty simple when you are a good veteran in development. :) U always code fool-proof. Its not that hard tbh
@@Tomas970506 I've been a tester for many years, as well as a developer. Trust me, it is simple to make something that does what it needs to do, it is a lot more difficult to make sure it doesn't do what it mustn't do.
@@frdml01 I guess different experience makes a difference
@@Tomas970506 defensive coding is great if you can afford the time it takes, but more often than not deadlines are a thing and you can only make it so fool proof.
at least you can make the software fail graciously if there's a problem.
but I'd be careful with being sure you can make a program that's fully safe, there's always a few edge cases that can go by without noticing. for example, what if the user enters null as their name? fairly easy to predict, but a few conversions later you cannot be as sure that at some point it wasn't converted to a null value.
if you're working with software that's mainly algorithms and deals with apis you can make it fairly robust but if you're dealing with messy stuff like electron or other similar fast development framework they can easily ruin your day by doing stuff they shouldn't.
@@satibel U sir won today. I completely agree. As a backend coder I usually feel pretty good about my coverage. But I fully agree that there are some edge cases that you just cant do without being an end user. I just couldnt agree with a statment that coders can't make monkey/idiot-proof system. They sure can do. U wouldnt go live with a system that cant handle null values. But that does not mean that the system is bug-less.
RIOT did such a cool job this is dope
Possibly the most amazing puzzle I've seen here, and the bomb one.
the key never went in though
Between the theming, the quality, the uniqueness of some steps and how the board works like the actual game - I'd have to say this is by far the best puzzle box you've been sent!
I expected the box to be a half assed attempt, fine but not really hitting the mark. NOT THE CASE. I am really impressed with the thought put into the puzzle and box and the surprises that go with it and keeping with the theme. Pleasantly surprised with the box.
Thank you!
I've watched soooo many of your videos, but I think this is without a doubt, my favorite puzzle. It's beautiful, has a story, and just looks like so much fun!
When you unlocked the chain, the buttons blinked in the sequence that you needed to push them in.
