The Trapped Chest is a storage block similar to a Chest, but it emits a Redstone signal when opened. It is commonly used in Redstone traps and hidden mechanisms. A Trapped Chest is crafted using 1 Chest and 1 Tripwire Hook in a 3×3 crafting grid. It does not generate naturally and must be crafted by the player.

To use a Trapped Chest, the player must tap on it to open the inventory. It functions like a normal Chest, holding up to 27 items, but emits a Redstone signal when opened. The strength of the signal depends on the number of players accessing the chest, with a maximum power level of 15.

Two Trapped Chests placed next to each other create a large Trapped Chest, doubling the storage space while maintaining its Redstone functionality. Unlike a normal Chest, it does not connect with a regular Chest when placed side by side. A Trapped Chest can be mined with any tool, but axes break it the fastest.
