Introducing Minecraft - a World of Squares



Riding a Horse in Survival Mode
I am back once again bringing to you the amazing world of Minecraft! What is Minecraft? one might ask. Well, it is really simple. Minecraft is basically an endless world made up of squares where you can build, destroy, travel, mine, craft, fight monsters, make potions, tame cats, dogs, and rabbits, trade with villagers, find treasure in dessert or jungle temples without falling into traps, ride and tame horses, fight guardians in the ocean, and much, much more. The things I listed above are all in the PC version which is the original Minecraft and gets the most updates. Whenever a major update comes out, like a few days ago on the 3rd, new blocks, mobs (monsters and animals), improvements, foods, potions, and many other things are added to the game. The only thing is, the pocket addition of Minecraft (which we also have on the Kindles) rarely gets updates and the worlds are not endless. And with it getting less updates, it has much less stuff than the PC version, but both are plenty good.

Some of the UCC players I know
Now I would like to introduce one more thing on Minecraft you can do: Join servers. You can join a server that is ran by an admin (or admins) and normally there are certain rules you have to follow like no griefing (breaking things that are not yours), no fire, lava, or TNT, be nice, and no hacking, but some even have rules such as no potions or mentioning Herobrine. It really depends on the age group of who plays that server. Some servers, like the ones I play, you have to be white listed before you can join. To be white listed you have to fill out a form online and you send it out to the admin (or admins) then you can join if they approve you. Servers where you have to be white listed are smaller but more contained so you are less likely to get griefed and the people are much nicer. Later today I will show some pictures of some sketches I made as well as what I like to collects so be ready!
