Lego games are not usually centered around their actual construction toy namesake. A massive library of Traveller’s Tales games have been built on crossovers with many licensed franchises, turning properties like Lord of the Rings and Marvel superheroes into slapstick action-platformers, and Lego A Builder’s Journey used the brick-building toys to tell a heartfelt story. Lego games don’t often capture the feeling of actually playing with Lego bricks, but Lego Bricktales actually does with incredible accuracy.
Bricktales is all about building, transporting you to five Lego-themed worlds and presenting you with a series of physics-based building puzzles. The physics system underlying the whole thing is impressive, as the Lego bricks actually perform the way any experienced brick-builder would expect. Whenever you finish a project that requires weight-bearing, you’ll need to test it with a falling object or a little robot crossing your construction to make sur…

In Horizon Forbidden West, one of the main story missions will take you to an ancient facility with mysterious origins. Seeking an unknown “asset,” Aloy will need to hail a machine from a device using a console code, but this code is hard to figure out because the game really gives it to you in less than clear language. Here’s what you need to know about the Horizon Cradle of Echoes code.
Where is the Cradle of Echoes code in Horizon Forbidden West?
Luckily, the code is the same for all players, and the reason for that is story-related. When Aloy goes to hail the pod featuring an “asset” inside of it, she’s not told explicitly which one the asset is in. This is tricky because there are 236 pods to choose from.
But that’s also a hint. There are 236 pods documented as being in the facility, so what you need to do is hail the one extra unaccounted for using code 237. A clue to this can be found in the facility, but even then it’s written in such eni…
