LEGO 70435 Building Instructions

The LEGO 70435 Construction Set, known as "Hidden Side: Newbury Abandoned Prison," is an immersive, augmented reality (AR) play experience designed for children aged seven and up. This set integrates physical LEGO building with digital gameplay to provide an interactive adventure. It consists of 400 pieces, which include a detailed, multi-story prison model with various rooms and hidden features, such as a spooky prison cell, a guard tower, and a hidden treasure chest. The set includes four mini-figures: Jack, Rami, and two ghost figures (Nana and Bart), along with a ghost dog named Spencer, each with unique accessories to enhance storytelling.

The prison’s intricate design encourages creativity and role-playing, with features like a collapsible wall and movable elements that can be manipulated to uncover hidden surprises. The AR component is accessible via a free app available on iOS and Android devices. When viewed through the app, the set comes to life with interactive mysteries to solve, ghosts to catch, and a dynamic story that evolves as players progress.

The LEGO 70435 set combines traditional building fun with digital innovation, providing a dual-layered play experience that fosters imaginative play and problem-solving skills. The physical set can be enjoyed independently of the app, ensuring that it remains a versatile addition to any LEGO collection. The augmented reality aspect enhances the set's appeal by offering a constantly evolving storyline and interactive elements that keep players engaged long-term. This combination of physical and digital play marks a significant step in LEGO's efforts to integrate modern technology with classic building experiences.
