Mini games

Mini games

Mini games are a fun way to experience minecraft. There are so many different min games to choose from. I will only talk about a couple.

Hunger Games: Most of you have seen the legendary films of the hunger games and read all the books. Well that won't save you now as the minecraft hunger games are completely different. How you play is the host pulls a lever and all player in there pods go up. There is usually 30 second to 1 minute grace period (means you can't kill any one) and you race to a bunch of chest. Grab weapons, food and armor and run. Find more chests around the map and after the grace period is over, kill! Once dead you must leave the game, but if you host then you can't.

The Dropper: One of my favorite and most simple games of all time. The aim of the game is to fall into water and not die in the process. It is simple and additive. You stand on some glowstone and hit a button. Avoid all the obstacles and win.

Hide and go Seek: In this mini game it is exactly like real life. Turn gamer tags off. Turn to a wall and count to whatever. Then seek. Tip for the hiders: find a tree and mine the bottom 2 blocks. Then the 2 dirt blocks underneath the part you mined and jump down it. Replace wood block and you are hidden.

Pig Racing: Control a pig with a carrot on a stick (hay that rhymes) to the finish line.

That's all for now. Head over to the wiki page for more, like king of the hill, golf and bumper boats.

Youtube Shout Outs!

Great Minecraft Videos On YouTube

I would like to give a couple of shout outs to people who have helped me and entertained me through my minecraft experience.

The first you tuber, fed x gaming, is a red stone expert and does a lot of tutorials on the stuff he makes on his own that has not been copied from the internet. You should check out his channel.

The next youtuber is called ibalisticsquid. He does let's plays and minigames, this will be my next post for wednesday, for minecraft.

The last, but definitely not least, is Stampylonghead. He is my favorite of all. Stampy does let's play videos and entertains people with his videos. He has over 2million subs and counting. He has a world that he loves to play in called Stampy's lovely world. (Just don't ask to be in his love garden.) <:(

Minecraft Multiplayer

If you have not yet played Minecraft multiplayer then you must be reading this. If you have it's a good idea to read this any way. You will need to invite friends on Xbox live first to your world. When they join it will say, for example, "Drexdragon467 joined the game." If you have host options on then you can fly, disable hunger (these two only work in survival) and invisibility. Also PvP can be enabled as well. This means that players can inflict damage on other in survival. An xbox live party is also advised as you can hear them. The xbox multiplayer is very different from the computer edition so there will not be a block exploration video today.

Mobs

Mobs

 

 

 

Mobs can be anything that moves in Minecraft. There is 3 types of mobs: Passive and Hostile and neutral

 

Let's start with the nice and Passive.

 

Most of these mobs can supley you with food. This involes Cows, Chickens, Mushooms and Pigs. There is the tameable Ocalot, the shy and speedy. The 4 and not 6 legged Squid, theone that dropes ink when killed. Here is a video on that.

The neutral mobs are the Wolves and Zombie Pigmen. These will start as passive but 1 hit will turn them hostile and any other mob of the same species. Wolves are different though as once fed with a bone, gotten from killing a Skeleton, will become tammed. But if you attack them they will no longer become tameable.

 

Now to the hostile mobs. There are a veriatey of these and the ones that die due to sunlight are the Zombies and Skeletons. The Spiders and his cousin the cave Spider will not atack with a light level of 8 or more. But if atacked it will atack you as well. There are far too many to list so here is a video.

Dirt

Dirt

 

 

 

 

Dirt is the most common block in Minecraft and not considered good building material. Dirt is usefull in that if you use LT on the grass with a Hoe it will be prepared for farm land. Be warey though because if there is no water and the seed is not placed on straight away then it will convert back into a normal dirt block. As I have said before it is not considered as good building material as it has not got good blast matirial and is not prety. Trust me.

 

 

 

As in all posts here is a video.

Food

Food

 

 

 

Food in minecraft is used to restore hunger. There is a variation to the types of food and some might poison you. They have a variation of how many hunger it restores. E.g. Raw Fish will only give you one joint. There are too many too list but I'll try my best to list as many as possible. Let's start with meat.

 

Chicken: Chicken restores 3 hunger points and unlike raw chicken it will not poison you.

 

 

Beef: Unlike raw chicken, raw beef will not poison you but will not restore as many as cooked. Cooked Beef, or steak as prefered, restores 4 hunger points.

 

 

Pork: Pork is collected from pigs and has a 0-2 chance to drop it. It will restore 1.5 hunger and will not poison you. But best to put it in the furnace because it will restore 4 hunger points.

 

Fish: Raw fish, when eaten, will restore 1 hunger point but when cooked it'l restore 2.5. Fish is different in that you will have to catch is with a rod.

 

 

Now to the vegetation side of food.

 

 

Cake: The Cake is made with milk, eggs and wheat and will also have to be placed like a block. The key feture is that it will restore 1 hunger point but can be used 6 times.

 

Bread: Bread, crafted from 3 wheat, is more plentiful than cakes and will restore 3 hunger points.

 

So as I said before there are too many to list and so I'll put a video on for more info.

Hunger

Hunger

 

 

 

Hunger in minecraft, is a game machanic that is located in the bottem right hand corner of the HUD. Each joint is made up of 2 hunger points which will deplete over some time, whether your running, jumping, mining or choping your hunger will deplete. So what's the problem you ask? Well the problem is, is that once all hunger is gone, if you are in hard mode or hardcore mode you will die. Otherwise your health will deplete so that there is only on heart remaining, making you vunreble to attacks. If in peaceful mode though, you huger will not deplete and you will regenerate hearts if there are 2 or less joints have gone. If you are on easy, normal, hard or hardcore you can eat food. (Which will be my next post.)

 

If you are still confused and want more infomation on hunger here is a block exploration video made by Toby to help you out.
