Define a building blocks set to be a collection of n cubes (each with six sides) where each side is assigned one letter and one color from a palette of m colors. We propose a novel problem of assigning letters and colors to each face so as to maximize the number of words one can spell from a chosen dataset that are either mono words, all letters have the same color, or rainbow words, all letters have unique colors. We explore this problem considering a chosen set of English words, up to six letters long, from a typical vocabulary of a US American 14 year old and explore the problem when n=6 and m=6, with the added restriction that each color appears exactly once on the cube. The problem is intractable, as the size of the solution space makes a brute force approach computationally infeasible. Therefore we aim to solve this problem using random search, simulated annealing, two distinct tree search approaches (greedy and best-first), and a genetic algorithm. To address this, we explore a range of optimization techniques: random search, simulated annealing, two distinct tree search methods (greedy and best-first), and a genetic algorithm. Additionally, we attempted to implement a reinforcement learning approach; however, the model failed to converge to viable solutions within the problem's constraints. Among these methods, the genetic algorithm delivered the best performance, achieving a total of 2846 mono and rainbow words.
