FULL SUIT OF DIAMOND ARMOUR (AT LEAST!) At this point in the game, a full suit of diamond armour should be your minimum requirement for any major adventure. Can you make it Netherite? Even better. Protection enchantments are useful generally, but anything that can reduce fall damage – Feather Falling on the boots, for instance – will help a lot when you end up levitated by shulkers. PUMPKIN Now before you scoff, remember – wearing a pumpkin on your head is the only thing that can stop your gaze provoking endermen. If you need respite to build or mine and don’t want a fight, put on a pumpkin and the endermen will leave you alone. DIAMOND SWORD & PICKAXE Again, the minimum you should take with you is a diamond…

CAMPFIRES ABOUT CAMPFIRES Campfires can be used as both a source of light and as a means to cook food. They can be lit and unlit at will, and inflict one damage on mobs as well as potential fire damage. Campfires emit a light level of 15 when lit. They can be extinguished by flowing water, splash water bottles or using a shovel. Rain doesn’t affect them. OBTAINING CAMPFIRES Campfires generate in taiga and snowy taiga villages, but can only be collected with a Silk Touch-enchanted tool. Mining a campfire will otherwise cause it to drop two charcoal. To craft a campfire, you need to combine three logs, stems or wood (not planks) with three sticks and coal or charcoal using the recipe shown above. Campfires can be bought from…

Dear Ask Us Anything, I found this – please could you tell me what it is called and if it is marked on maps? Thanks, Louie, Age 7 Hi Louie! Thanks for including the screenshot. This is a jungle temple – it’s normally hidden inside the deep foliage of a jungle forest, but here it has generated just outside of the trees. Jungle temples don’t appear on the map in any special way, though at close zoom levels you’ll be able to make them out from their shape. Hope that’s useful! Dear Ask Us Anything, All of the questions I'm asking are for the Bedrock Edition: 1: How do I get Nether bricks? 2: Are spiders and cave spiders the only animals that are hostile to players? 3: Where do…

PRESTONPLAYZ tinyurl.com/mw-prestonplayz One of the hottest YouTube channels around belongs to PrestonPlayz, and his Minecraft videos, which frequently pit him against the infuriating and yet strangely competent Noob1234, are some of the funniest around. Preston often plays Minecraft alongside his wife, Brianna, as they take on build battles, but it’s the pranks that will undoubtedly bring you back! Always a fun watch. BRIANNAPLAYZ tinyurl.com/mw-brianna Of course, Brianna has her own channel too – her videos are mostly looking at roleplay and secret house videos, though she has a fair amount where she pranks Preston! Like her husband, she plays many other games and puts out great videos on her main channel too (like hide and seek videos with real police officers!), but it’s her Minecraft work that our readers will…

MUSHROOM CONTINENT JAVA SEED: 805874225920322420 VERSION TESTED: 1.16.5 Survival islands are fairly easy to find when you’re looking for them, and if you’re lucky you’ll also discover a mushroom plains island – but this seed is special! This island is SO big it’s practically a continent, large enough to hold several biomes including an elusive mushroom plains biome. There’s a huge ravine beneath the mushroom biome, a lagoon in one of the forest biomes, and a shipwreck off the mushroom biome’s small coastal section. Great for exploring, building and terraforming! An ideal seed for multiple players to start on! PRIMORDIAL FOREST BEDROCK SEED: 1512233509 VERSION TESTED: 1.16.210 This Bedrock seed isn’t quite as big as the Mushroom Continent, but it’s great fun in a completely different way. It’s covered entirely…

REINFORCED WALLS Creepers can blast their way through walls like they were made of polystyrene, and almost nothing can stop them – except, of course, obsidian. The only truly blast-proof block in the game (that you can collect without cheating!) is made by putting running water on top of lava blocks, and it can withstand a direct blast from a creeper without a scratch on it. Unfortunately, building your walls out of obsidian makes them look ugly and weird. To get around this, build a reinforced wall instead. To do this, build your base the size and shape you want, then create an obsidian shell around it. Now surround the shell with a block of your choice, and you’ll have creeper-proof walls without the unpleasant obsidian visuals! CREEPER-PROOF WINDOWS Note…

RELEASE IMMINENT! The good news for everyone waiting for the Caves & Cliffs update is that the release is coming very soon – maybe even before the next issue is on shelves! That’s because the developers have split the update into two chunks, with the second half to be released later this year. So what will you get in update one, and what’s going to come out later? PHASE ONE (VERSION 1.17) The first iteration is going to contain a lot of stuff you’ve already seen on these very pages – it’s always subject to change, but this is what we expect to see right now! New blocks and items coming in 1.17 include geodes, calcite and amethysts; underground plants like azaleas, moss blocks, cave vines and dripleaf; copper ore…

10 SEASIDE HOTEL If we’re going on a trip to the seaside, we’re going to need somewhere to stay. Let’s start our countdown with this hotel build then, put together by steve2443. There are plenty of socially distanced deckchairs, two swimming pools, and lots of space for everyone to stay! Tinyurl.com/mcw79topten10 9 SEASIDE CAFÉ Once we’ve arrived at the coast, we’re going to be peckish! Our gratitude then to Rogue_Assassin13 for building this café, where we’re hoping we can pop in and get an ice cream if the weather’s nice! Perfect before we go for a dip in the sea… Tinyurl.com/mcw79topten9 8 SEASIDE MANSION If we had a few pounds in our bank account, we might consider investing in a luxurious house on the shore. But we don’t, so instead…

WHAT’S THE EDUCATION EDITION? Developed for use in classrooms, the Education Edition is technically a separate version of Minecraft – however, hidden within your Bedrock Edition options, you can enable these features on a per-world basis. To activate them, when you create a new world you have to scroll down into the settings to the “cheats” section. Enable cheats, and directly below it you should see the option “Education Edition”. Enable that too, then scroll back up and create your world as normal! You’ll arrive in the Overworld as expected, but you’ll now have access to new features and blocks! The Education Edition can be obtained by schools as a stand alone piece of software with even more features, including lesson plans and teacher interactions. The features we’re looking at…

ABOUT BOATS Boats are the main way players can transport themselves across water, although they can also carry a single passenger in addition to the main occupant. Available in all six colours of wood, boats are a crucial part of playing Minecraft – you probably won’t get far without them! Boats are just under one and a half blocks wide and half a block tall. They float upwards in water and stay on the surface, unless they encounter a magma block’s bubble column, which pulls them downwards. Boats have about four points of health, and can be destroyed by collisions and other dam age. CRAFTING ABOAT The crafting recipes for boats are completely made of wood. They’re unlocked as soon as you jump in water, and are the only wood…

BUILD SPECS Everyone loves a Mine craft jumping puzzle, but have you ever tried building your own? We’ve put together a jumping puzzle that takes you all the way from the ground to a dizzying height, and we did it with just a few blocks and a lot of patience! Here are the things your build needs to have to qualify: ■ Three levels of increasing difficulty ■ Different colours to mark out the levels ■ A tower to contain the jumping puzzle ■ A reward at the top! Other than that, you’re free to try whatever you want! HINTS AND TIPS Don’t make your puzzle too big, unless you want the fall to be part of the challenge. Even falling from the top to the bottom of our tower…
