10 Years of Minecraft is a DLC map released on May 9, 2019 on both Java Edition and Bedrock Edition, celebrating the 10th Anniversary of Minecraft.
Players begin the map in a desert, outside a desert pyramid marked by the 10th anniversary logo. Right beside the entrance are two chests, containing 54 total unique "Anniversary Golden Minecarts," which the player can use inside on a track that recaps the last ten years of Java Edition updates. At the end of the track is a collection of numbered buttons, with another chest containing a map and book, labeled The Vault and credited to BlockWorks. Inside is an explanation of the surrounding area, an expansive locked door into the Vault itself.
To open it, the code is 170509, the date of Minecraftโs alpha release. Once the combination is input, the door will open between both sets of buttons, revealing a fancy, dimly lit museum with a directory immediately visible. Beside it are two stairways, leading down to another minecart track that takes the player to the Mob Gardens. The first room of the museum itself is split between inorganic blocks, such as stone and gravel, and organic blocks, such as coral and cacti. Chests containing books explaining each block in detail are placed about. In the center of the room is a gray stained glass floor, showing another recreation of the Minecraft 10th anniversary logo below.
At the north end of the room is a large quartz staircase, leading up to the second floor with an array of functional blocks, such as crafting tables and sponges. Unlike the preceding floor, this area is much more angular and adorned with end rods, with stained glass pane railings over holes giving a look at the bottom. Also different on this floor is that the blocks are grouped into categories, in the form of utility blocks and mechanisms. Behind the staircase is a small room, labeled Minecraft: A History, where players can find a condensed history of the franchise surrounding birch trees. These include Minecraft's player count, the release of Lego Minecraft, the release of Minecraft Story Mode, the founding of the Minecraft Marketplace, and various Minecons.
A few blocks away from the first stairway is another, leading up to a slanted display of "manufactured blocks," such as banners. Another collection of blocks reside southwest of this, giving a large view of all three floors of the Vault. Also present on the third floor are large cyan stained glass windows, designed to mimic diamond ore.
Located to the north of the Vault, the Biomedomes are blocked by an expansive puzzle, where the player must jump across several chunks. If they touch the incorrect chunk, they will be teleported back to the start. In order to cross, players will need to read a book given right before, and memorize the pattern given. Upon completing the challenge, the player will be able to access the Biomedomes proper, and are given a heavy weighted pressure plate that can warp them back to the Vault.
Marching up a grand flight of stairs, players will enter into a recreational plains village, with a puzzle nearby. Inside a chest is a diamond shovel and book named Adventuring Time, tasking players with collecting a poppy, dandelion, melon slice, carrots, lily pad, beetroots, nether wart, red mushroom, chorus fruit, and rose bush. The poppy and dandelion are plentiful throughout the village, while beetroot crops and can be found in nearby farms. Melons can be found in a jungle area not far from the farms, the lily pad in a swamp close to the prompt, mushroom in a flower pot in a witch hut, and rose bush in a forest far from the other biomes. Other biomes featured are dark forests and birch forests, and inside them are chests, containing explanations of the biomes in question.
The plants from other dimensions can be found by swimming down the well in the village, which drops the player down an abrupt tunnel into a stronghold marked with yellow thing banners. The stronghold is split between two paths, the Nether to the right and End to the left. The Nether section is set in a large nether wastes biome, littered with torches. Patrolling the grounds are wither skeletons and blazes, which will chase after the player as in survival mode. The nether wart will be found inside of a nether fortress, which will require a lengthy fight with the mobs.
The End section is a combination of the inner and outer End, beginning with a recreation of the ender dragon arena with the ender dragon egg on top of the exit portal. Beyond that is an end city, complete with shulkers. Uniquely, on the second floor is a shulker monster spawner. Climbing upwards, players will find two chests, one containing two diamonds and a stick, the other two diamonds, a shulker shell and shulker box. At the very top is a chest containing a book on the outer islands of the End. Chorus plants can be found below.
Once all the plants are found, a second chest will generate beside the flower bed, containing an anniversary golden sword.
Located to the east of the Vault, players will have to solve a puzzle before entering the building itself. The starting area of the region is a strip of land lined with stone bricks and white concrete, with a chest containing instructions. Players will have to decipher a message written in the Standard Galactic Alphabet, using a codec credited to Herobrine. Pressing a button will teleport the player to a barrier block above the area, revealing a large statue of a book with the text in question. At the very end of the area is a building in the shape of an enchanting table, where they can input the answer using various levers above items, such as turtle shells.
The message on the book translates to "I have a spine, front and back but bones and teeth are what I lack, on me you can write your name but first craft me with 3 sugar-cane." This teaches the player to pull the levers for books and sugar canes, which will open stained glass gates, allowing entry into the Academy. Climbing up dark oak stairs, players can advance up on top of the enchanting table, and climb the enchanting book into the Academy, passing a directory and iron pressure plate that warps the player back to the Vault.
The Academy is a large building modeled after a college, with the first room to the left of the entrance being a cafeteria with a checkerboard floor pattern, and obscured to the right a classroom with oak planks for the floor and a green terracotta chalkboard. In the proceeding hallway are two bathrooms, marked light blue and pink with toilets made of snow layers and gray carpets, and mirrors made of banners. From there is another door into the cafeteria, and a splitting hallway to the east and south. To the east is a large statue of an agent, with nearby exits to roads of dirt paths. To the south is a similar exit, leading to a fountain with a humanoid figure, as well as an indoor stairway lined with anvils. Immediately on the second floor are two more classrooms and bathrooms, though differently designed, with the bathroom being reachable through a one block wide wall.
Returning to the Agent statue, players can make a turn to the left and discover a large assortment of displays on school subjects, including Art & Design, History & Culture, Math, Science, Computer Science, and Language Arts. In front of these is another book, simply labeled Education, explaining Minecraft Education. Above the area is a large recreation of the game's former logo. To the right of the Agent statue are several actual agents, making a "special visit" to vanilla Minecraft, as explained in a book marked "Robots". In this area, players are tasked with programming the agents, leading them to a block of gold. Four of these puzzles are present, with diamond axes and exclusive "Robot Controller" blocks being given to assist.
For the first puzzle, they player will simply need to replace a Robot Controller and rotate it to face the gold, which it is directly next to. If a robot controller is removed with an agent on it, it will die and need to be respawned by a nearby button. The second puzzle will be to the right, and require reorienting three blocks, first to face the south, west, and south again in an L-shape. The third puzzle counterclockwise will be similarly simple, requiring a U-shaped path to be straightened. This and the fourth puzzle require the agent to be spawned manually, as opposed to the others which have it naturally. The final puzzle will be in a W-shape, requiring a more complicated order, with blocks ordered in the east, south, east, south, and west.
Upon completing the Robot Minigame, a chest will appear next to the introduction chest, rewarding the player with a special anniversary golden bow and 28 arrows. Behind the puzzle is a large floor map, telegraphing the locations of Block by Block projects across the world, and a book with the achievements of Block by Block.
Located to the south of the Vault, directly behind the entrance, Mob Gardens is preceded by a collection of oversized spawn eggs amongst a badlands biome. Inside players will find a book, explaining a series of riddles that will enable players to enter the garden proper. Inside the parrot, creeper, and enderman eggs are levers, which open the path to the gardens. Players can climb into the eggs via ladders, finding very little beside carpets. Once all three are pulled, players can transcend stone brick stairs up into the true Mob Garden, a modern dome house many of the mobs of the time, adorned with stained glass windows of mobs such as pigs and Steve. Upon entering the garden, players will find another directory and a fast travel back to the Vault.
To the left of the entrance are exhibits of passive mobs, all noticeably larger than normal, beginning with tropical fish, mules, skeleton horses, and villagers. Similar to the Vault, there are chests containing books explaining the mobs' behavior and lore. At the very end of the room are a circular display for parrots and bats, with the chests a considerable distance away from the mobs. In the center of the museum is a large spire of water, surrounded by neutral mobs such as llamas and spiders. The right wing is devoted to hostile mobs, with elder guardians inflicting mining fatigue upon approach. Similar to the left wing, at the end is a circular area featuring flying mobs, in this case the Wither, a phantom, a ghast, and a blaze. Between both wings are spiral staircases up to catwalks above the displays.
Returning to the spire, curious players will be able to discover a hole in the center, revealing a secret basement in the form of a mysterious garden lined with polished diorite. Traveling down a wooden path will inevitably lead the player to collide with tripwires surrounded by skeleton skulls, which summon various enemies such as skeletons, endermites, vexes, and vindicators. Traveling through sections themed around the End, Nether, an ocean monument, the player will emerge in a chamber filled with banners of Herobrine, and be rewarded with eleven enchanted apples, in the shape of the number 10.
Located to the west of the Vault, the Museum of Redstone is surrounded by a gigantic recreation of a circuit board. In order to enter the building, players will need to activate ten redstone lamps, marked by a spruce device in the center. These lamps are activated by clicking ten levers in the area, on the sides of small structures, which contain redstone blocks and cobblestone walls. Upon opening the door, players can proceed into a polished andesite tunnel into a gigantic piston, climbing a large flight of stairs up past a directory and arrive in a courtyard marked by statues composed of redstone blocks.
The Museum itself is a large, open building made of terracotta and acacia, surrounded by lamp fixtures made of floating pistons. Up another set of stairs, players will find a chest in front of a redstone device, containing a book tasking the player with lighting various blocks up. In the center of the room are several unlit lamps, which light up with your progress. To the left of the entrance room is a large hallway, containing tutorials for various redstone mechanisms, such as redstone torches and T flip-flop. Following a path modeled after a redstone wire will eventually lead to a lower floor, containing the Redstone Grove, a zoo area filled with _Jeb sheep and a redstone environment. The trees are redstone lamps on block of redstone trunks, abundant red tulips, and redstone ores scattered throughout every stone source. At the bottom is a book, explaining the lore of the grove in a poem.
In order to "light up the building," the player will need to interact with each of the tutorials. The lever, locking repeater, and redstone torch, and T flip-flop lights can be completed with a simple use. For the button, they have to use a bow to shoot the button, which breaks in one use. The detector rail requires pushing the minecart on top of the detector, while the daylight detector can be solved by either turning it to detect shade or pulling a hidden lever on the ceiling to reveal sunlight. In the chest of the tripwire chest are 14 coal in the shape of a ten, with the book in the zero. Once all are activated at once, the player can progress to the right wing.
Similar to the left wing, the lever, AND gate, comparator, puzzles can be solved with basic interaction. There are four comparator puzzles, the first requiring filling a chest with coal, the second uses a hopper that requires 160 coal, the third pulling several levers, and the fourth a specific lever out of six. The slime block puzzle needs the player to pull a middle lever and slightly obscured right lever. Also similar to the left wing is an attraction at the end of the wing, in this case an out of order elevator.โ[more information needed]
Upon completing every puzzle, a large double chest will be revealed, containing anniversary golden armor. Another activity the player can do is climb somewhat obscure stairways in the lobby, which will lead into an attic area with a large redstone contraption held up by cobblestone walls. Proceeding up another, spiral staircase will lead players into an observatory, revealing the device to be a TNT cannon. Before it is another chest, containing a book explaining some lore about the machine and chain boots enchanted with feather falling IV.
Another collection of stairs lie back on the first floor, positioned behind giant claws hung by the lamp puzzles. On the surface, they would appear to be a viewing area, similar to the catwalks in Mob Gardens. At the end are another set of stairs lined with acacia logs, leading up to a gallery of various redstone machines. On the left wing are several "armouring machines," the first simply made of stone blocks, stone bricks, and dispensers. The second, labeled Armouring Machine 2.0, is a plate of blocks of iron, with birch fence posts on the corners, and four dispensers surrounding soul sand in the center. On the right wing is a complex contraption made of multiple wool blocks, marked as out of order.
In the corners of the map are six Golden Apples, structures in the shape of golden apples that are accessed through railways underneath the Vault. The first available is from the entrance to Mob Gardens, leading to the southwest apple. Inside each of the Golden Apples is a parkour challenge, leading to the top of the apple, where the player is rewarded with an enchanted golden apple. Once all six are completed, as well as any of the primary puzzles across the map, the player will be teleported "back to spawn" on a large platform, filled with cakes and containing a chest with several items.
Inside the chest are two music discs, both of the song Happy Birthday. One is sung in English and sung by the employees of Mojang Studios in Redmond, while the other is in Swedish and from Stockholm. Opposite to those are a Special Anniversary Minecart and Special Minecart Key. The Minecart summons an entity when placed, which possesses an inventory with 12 slots, and can be ridden by putting the key in the saddle slot. While ridden, it allows the player to fly. Also on the platform is a creeper entity that dances, before turning into a large grass block, thanking the player for exploring the map.

The Vault
Here you will find every block in Minecraft, safely under lock and key.
Not really, it's much more high-tech than that. The Vault uses a super secret 6-digit code, which you'll never guess!
Now, what was it again?
Having looked after Minecraft's blocks since day 1 I'm getting awfully forgetful!
I really should write it down somewhere...

Robots
The robots are controlled by the blocks they are walking on. The direction of the arrow shows which direction the robot will move next.
You can break and rotate the green arrows using the pickaxe, but you cannot break the magenta arrows!
It is your task to help guide the robot towards the gold block, which will turn diamond when completed. Complete all 4 puzzles for your reward.

Block by Block
A collaboration between Mojang, Microsoft and UNHabitat, Block by Block allows everyone to have a say in the design of their local public space by using Minecraft as a collaborative design tool.
After a project location is selected, a 3-day workshop is held where community members share and discuss different ideas, before building them in Minecraft.
These Minecraft designs are then passed on to architects and local authorities who, with the help of Block by Block, build the real-world public space on the Minecraft model.
๐ ItemSprite spawn-parrot.png: Sprite image for spawn-parrot in Minecraft
The Mob Gardens
You'll need to solve the Riddle of the Eggs first!
3 of these eggs contain levers which open the gate to the Mob Gardens - it's up to you to find out which! Here are some clues to get you started:
1. Play a jingle and I'll flap and wriggle, but don't feed me chocolate - for my kind it's toxic!
2. Roses are red, violets are blue, give me a hug and I'll hug you back - BOOM!
3. They travel in hauntings, and are most certainly daunting. These tall chaps will disappear in a snap!
๐ ItemSprite redstone-dust.png: Sprite image for redstone-dust in Minecraft
Redstone Museum
Here we have all sorts of marvelous mechanisms, from the super simple to the devilishly difficult! Unfortunately the Museum hasn't been well looked after, and we need your help to bring the power back on.
Fix all 16 of our redstone machines to light up the redstone dust lamp and claim your reward. The first machines may seem easy to fix, but the further from the redstone dust the harder they get!
P.S.
If redstone isn't your thing and you just want to get out of here, we have a machine for that too! Check out the floor.

๐ BlockSprite bedrock.png: Sprite image for bedrock in Minecraft
Bedrock
Bedrock was added to Minecraft on the tenth day of the gameโs development. This means that bedrock was added to the game before water, lava, ores, and logs!
๐ BlockSprite bone-block.png: Sprite image for bone-block in Minecraft
Bone Block
Bone blocks can be mined with any pickaxe. If they are broken without a pickaxe, they drop nothing.
๐ BlockSprite clay.png: Sprite image for clay in Minecraft
Clay
There are many decorative uses for clay, and depending on whether you smelt the entire block or its individual pieces, you will gain different final products!
๐ BlockSprite coal-ore.png: Sprite image for coal-ore in Minecraft
Coal Ore
When used in a furnace as a fuel, it will last 80 seconds and smelt up to 8 items.
Canโt find coal? Burn some logs and youโll get charcoal, which has the same properties as coal!
๐ BlockSprite dirt.png: Sprite image for dirt in Minecraft
Dirt
Dirt also drops if you break grass, mycelium, or podzol without a Silk Touch tool.
Not sure what to do with all your dirt? Consider building a farm! Unless you plan on hunting or fishing all day, building a farm is the easiest way to create a renewable source of food.
So, while it may seem like a rather simple and common block, dirt is useful! Besides, how else are you supposed to survive the first night without building a dirt hut?
๐ BlockSprite coarse-dirt.png: Sprite image for coarse-dirt in Minecraft
Coarse Dirt
It spawns naturally in the Overworld in all Giant Tree Taiga biomes, Wooded and Modified Wooded Badlands Plateaus, and Shattered Savanna Plateau biomes.
๐ BlockSprite podzol.png: Sprite image for podzol in Minecraft
Podzol
When broken, it will drop a regular block of dirt unless it is mined with Silk Touch. Podzol allows mushrooms to be placed on regardless of the light level, which allows for the growth of huge mushrooms.
Unlike grass and mycelium, however, podzol does not spread.
๐ BlockSprite grass-block.png: Sprite image for grass-block in Minecraft
Grass
If you right click it with a shovel, it will be turned into a grass path.
But grass is delicate. If a block is placed on top of it, or if it is broken by anything other than a Silk Touch tool, it will transform into regular dirt.
Then there are the mobs! Sheep like to eat it, and endermen like to steal it! At least the endermen will drop the grass block if they are killed - no Silk Touch required!
With all these ways for your grass to be messes around with, it sure is tough maintaining a perfect front lawn! Luckily, grass spreads to nearby dirt blocks, so it will grow back!
๐ BlockSprite mycelium.png: Sprite image for mycelium in Minecraft
Mycelium
Endermen can pick up mycelium blocks, and will drop the block they are holding if killed. This is one way to obtain mycelium if you do not have Silk Touch! As with grass, mycelium is capable of spreading to nearby dirt blocks.
While mushrooms normally need low light levels to be placed, they can be placed on mycelium blocks in any light level. Huge mushrooms can also be grown on mycelium.
๐ BlockSprite cobblestone.png: Sprite image for cobblestone in Minecraft
Cobblestone
Donโt feel like leaving your home to gather cobblestone? Create your own cobblestone generator with a bucket of lava and a bucket of water! When flowing water and lava come into contact with one another another, a block of cobblestone will be created!
๐ BlockSprite mossy-cobblestone.png: Sprite image for mossy-cobblestone in Minecraft
Mossy Cobble
It can generate in pillager outpost watchtowers, as well as in plains, taiga, and snowy villages. Alternatively, it can be crafted by combining cobblestone with vines.
๐ BlockSprite cobweb.png: Sprite image for cobweb in Minecraft
Cobweb
You can find large amounts of cobwebs in abandoned mineshafts, particularly around cave spider spawners.
๐ BlockSprite end-stone.png: Sprite image for end-stone in Minecraft
End Stone
With a blast resistance of 45, end stone cannot be picked up by endermen nor can it be destroyed by the ender dragon. This makes it a useful defensive block both inside and outside of the End!
But donโt forget to grab some before you leave! As it is the only block that you can place chorus fruit on, you will need to take some home with you if you want to grow any chorus plants!
End stone can be mined with a pickaxe of any level.
๐ BlockSprite sand.png: Sprite image for sand in Minecraft
Sand
Since a shovel is the fastest method of breaking and obtaining sand, make sure to keep a shovel handy if youโre on a treasure hunt!
While sand generally appears in layers that are four blocks deep, supported by stone or sandstone, sand can also spawn floating in the air.
Be careful! As sand is affected by gravity, if you place or break a block near this precariously perched pile of sand, the entire cluster will come crashing down!
Sand that falls on a mob or player will cause them to suffocate. But sand that falls on non-solid blocks, such as tour heโs, redstone dust, rails, or slabs, will break and drop a block of sand instead of piling up.
Sand can be used to craft a number of decorative blocks, and it is also one of the two main ingredients required to craft TNT. When smelted, it will produce glass.
๐ BlockSprite soul-sand.png: Sprite image for soul-sand in Minecraft
Soul Sand
Soul Sand will slow the movement of any player or mob that walks over it. If it is placed above ice, packed ice, or slime blocks, the slowing effect will be even stronger!
When it is placed underwater, it will also release a column of bubbles that will speedily lift any players, mobs, and items up to the surface!
๐ BlockSprite stone.png: Sprite image for stone in Minecraft
Stone
Cobblestone can be smelted in a furnace to transform it back into stone. Stone will also be created if lava comes in contact with flowing water.
Stone is everywhere! So much so that it almost had a place in the very name of the game! Before Minecraft was known as โMinecraftโ, the game was nearly called โMinecraft: Order of the Stoneโ!
๐ BlockSprite diamond-ore.png: Sprite image for diamond-ore in Minecraft
Diamonds
Used to craft the best tools and armour in the game, every player hopes to find diamonds while mining. However, be careful while collecting them! The last thing you want is for your diamonds to fall into a patch of hidden lava!
๐ BlockSprite emerald-ore.png: Sprite image for emerald-ore in Minecraft
Emerald Ore
These emeralds can be used as currency in villager trades, or to power beacons.
๐ BlockSprite gold-ore.png: Sprite image for gold-ore in Minecraft
Gold Ore
๐ BlockSprite iron-ore.png: Sprite image for iron-ore in Minecraft
Iron Ore
As it does not generate above Y level 63, you will not be able to find iron ore in the upper levels of mountain biomes.
Iron ore is only useful once it is smelted into iron ingots, which can be crafted into better armour, tools, and weapons!
Of course, you can also craft yourself a handy bucket or a pair of shears.
๐ BlockSprite lapis-lazuli-ore.png: Sprite image for lapis-lazuli-ore in Minecraft
Lapis Lazuli Ore
Previously used as a dye, lapis lazuli can also be used to enchant items in an enchantment table. Depending on the enchantment level, 1-3 pieces of lapis lazuli will be consumed per enchantment.
๐ BlockSprite redstone-ore.png: Sprite image for redstone-ore in Minecraft
Redstone Ore
Redstone dust is used for brewing and crafting but its primary use is to transmit power via redstone circuitry and wires.
๐ BlockSprite nether-quartz-ore.png: Sprite image for nether-quartz-ore in Minecraft
NetherQuartz Ore
Four pieces of nether quartz can be crafted into its block form.
๐ BlockSprite purpur-block.png: Sprite image for purpur-block in Minecraft
Purpur
Alternatively, purpur blocks can be crafted from four pieces of popped chorus fruit, and, if you make these blocks into slabs, you can use these slabs to craft some fancy purpur pillars!
๐ BlockSprite end-stone-bricks.png: Sprite image for end-stone-bricks in Minecraft
End Stone Bricks
End stone bricks can also be obtained by disassembling the structures in end cities, which are generated on the outed islands of the End.
๐ BlockSprite fire.png: Sprite image for fire in Minecraft
Fire
Even with fire spread enabled, all is not lost! Fires eventually burn out on their own. However, fires started on netherrack or magma blocks will burn forever, and will need to be put out manually.
Coming in contact with fire will set you on fire. You can either wait for it to burn out, or you can jump in water to extinguish the fire before it does too much damage!
Tired of waiting for lava, lightning, blazes, and ghosts to start fires for you? You can light your very own fires with a flint and steel or fire charge! Remember, with great power comes great responsibility!
๐ BlockSprite lava.png: Sprite image for lava in Minecraft
Lava
When combined with water, lava can produce stone, cobblestone, or obsidian depending on how the two fluids interact.
When gathered in a bucket, lava can be used as fuel. It has the longest burning value in the game, capable of smelting 100 items with a single bucket of lava!
Items that fall into lava will be destroyed, so hold on to your diamonds and be careful while mining! Yet another reason not to dig down!
๐ BlockSprite magma-block.png: Sprite image for magma-block in Minecraft
Magma Block
Alternatively, a magma blocks can be crafted from four magma cream. While magma blocks do not destroy items, they will hurt mobs and players that stand on top of them.
Players can avoid taking fire damage from magma blocks by using fire resistance potions, wearing Frost Walker boots, or simply sneaking while walking across them.
Underwater magma blocks create whirlpool bubble columns that drag any items, boats, mobs, or players caught in them at the bottom of the sea. Luckily, you can restore your air by swimming through a magma blockโs bubble column.
But be careful! Despite being underwater, magma blocks will still hurt you if you come in contact with them.
๐ BlockSprite glowstone.png: Sprite image for glowstone in Minecraft
Glowstone
Unless it is mined with Silk Touch, glowstone will shatter into 2-4 pieces of glowstone dust. If it is broken with a Fortune tool, it has a higher chance to drop more glowstone dust, but it will never drop more than four pieces of dust.
You can craft four pieces of glowstone dust back together to form one piece of glowstone.
With a light level of 15, glowstone produces the brightest possible light level in the game. Use it to light up your creations, or craft it into a redstone lamp for a more decorative alternative.
๐ BlockSprite gravel.png: Sprite image for gravel in Minecraft
Gravel
or on soul sand, it will break and drop a piece of gravel instead of piling up.

๐ BlockSprite cobblestone-wall.png: Sprite image for cobblestone-wall in Minecraft
Cobblestone Wall
If a torch is placed on top of a cobblestone wall, it will create a post for the torch to rest on. Cobblestone walls are one and a half blocks tall for player and mob collision, but only occupy one block space.
As with fences, this prevents players and mobs from jumping over the walls. If a wall is mined without a pickaxe, it will break and drop nothing.

๐ BlockSprite white-wool.png: Sprite image for white-wool in Minecraft
Wool
White, light grey, grey, black, brown, and pink wool can be found naturally on sheep in the wild. All other colours will require you to use dye. When you use shears on an adult sheep, it will drop 1-3 wool.
Sheep will regrow their wool after eating grass. If you kill a sheep that has not been sheared, it will drop one wool upon death. While wool blocks can be broken with anything, shears are the fastest method of breaking wool.
๐ BlockSprite sandstone-slab.png: Sprite image for sandstone-slab in Minecraft
Slabs
If two slabs of the same type are placed in the same block space, they will form a double slab. Double slabs act as a single block when broken. As a result, breaking one slab will break the double slab and drop two slabs.
Keep in mind that wood slabs can be broken successfully with anything, but all other types require a pickaxe!
๐ BlockSprite slime-block.png: Sprite image for slime-block in Minecraft
Slime Block
you will jump normally instead of bouncing higher. Regardless of how far you fall, you will not take any fall damage unless you sneak upon landing. If you cover slime blocks in carpet, they will retain their bouncy nature.
Slime blocks can be crafted from 9 slime balls. They can also be crafted back into slime balls. This make slime blocks a compact way to store slime balls if you ever find yourself with an excessive amount of slime!
Similar to soul sand, your movement speed will be slowed when you walk over a slime block.
๐ BlockSprite oak-stairs.png: Sprite image for oak-stairs in Minecraft

Stone Bricks
They generate naturally in strongholds, igloos, and underwater ruins. If they are mined with anything other than a pickaxe, they will break and drop nothing. Be careful while mining out bricks in strongholds!
Silverfish have the ability to enter and hide in any variant of stone bricks! This creates an infested variant of the corresponding block type.
๐ BiomeSprite badlands-plateau.png: Sprite image for badlands-plateau in Minecraft
Badlands Plateau
The sides of the plateau can occasionally reveal exposed mineshafts!
๐ BiomeSprite birch-forest.png: Sprite image for birch-forest in Minecraft
Birch Forest
Birch forests are a part of the temperate and lush biome family. Unlike regular forests, wolves will not spawn in birch forests.
๐ BiomeSprite dark-forest.png: Sprite image for dark-forest in Minecraft
Dark Forest
Huge mushrooms can also grow amongst the dark oaks.
There is an extremely rare chance that a woodland mansion will generate within a dark forest! This is the only biome that woodland mansions can appear.
๐ BiomeSprite desert.png: Sprite image for desert in Minecraft
Desert
Passive mobs do not spawn and trees do not grow in the desert, making it a challenging biome to survive in at the beginning of the game.
Cacti and dead bushes are naturally generated within the terrain.
Deserts make up for their barrenness by generating a number of different structures within them! These include villages, fossils, desert wells, and desert temples!
๐ BiomeSprite the-end.png: Sprite image for the-end in Minecraft
The End
The End's central island serves as the main platform for your boss fight with the ender dragon. Large obsidian pillars and end crystals generate naturally on the central island. There is no way to exit the End unless you die or defeat the ender dragon!
Planning on making the End your home? If you place a bed, it will create an explosion that is 25% stronger than TNT. Yikes!
Other than the ender dragon, endermen are the only other residents of the End's main island.
๐ BiomeSprite forest.png: Sprite image for forest in Minecraft
Forest
Wolves rarely spawn in forest biomes, making forests the only other biome aside from taigas where wolves can spawn!
๐ BiomeSprite frozen-ocean.png: Sprite image for frozen-ocean in Minecraft
Frozen Ocean
The most prominent features of frozen oceans are the large icebergs made of snow blocks, packed ice, and blue ice that frequently generate on the surface of the water.
Polar bears and strays are capable of spawning on those icebergs. Salmon, squid, and drowned are the only aquatic mobs that can spawn in the water in frozen oceans.
Frozen oceans will never generate directly next to land. There will always be at least 32 blocks of a cold ocean bordering it if it happens to generate near land!
๐ BiomeSprite frozen-river.png: Sprite image for frozen-river in Minecraft
Frozen River
Frozen rivers are part of the snowy biome family.
Despite the covering of ice over the river, salmon and drowned are still capable of spawning underwater. At night, strays will also spawn above the ice.
๐ BiomeSprite old-growth-spruce-taiga.png: Sprite image for old-growth-spruce-taiga in Minecraft
Giant Spruce
Mossy cobblestone boulders are scattered throughout the biome, along with patches of podzol, dirt, and coarse dirt.
This rare biome can be difficult to differentiate from the giant tree taiga biome, but you can tell which biome you are in by looking at the leaves of the giant spruce trees!
If the spruce leaves only grow at the top of the trunk, you are in the giant tree taiga, not a giant spruce taiga!
๐ BiomeSprite ice-spikes.png: Sprite image for ice-spikes in Minecraft
Ice Spikes
While most of the ice spikes are 10 to 20 blocks tall, some of the other spikes can reach over 50 blocks in height!
As all grass blocks have been replaced by snow blocks in this biome, no passive mobs other than rabbits and polar bears are able to spawn. At night, strays will spawn as well.
๐ BiomeSprite windswept-hills.png: Sprite image for windswept-hills in Minecraft
Mountains
With very few trees, this cold biome is grassy, but areas above Y level 92 are dusted with snow.
Mountains are the only biomes where emerald ore and silverfish can be found naturally!
Aside from savannas, mountains are the only bimes where llamas will spawn.
๐ BiomeSprite mushroom-fields.png: Sprite image for mushroom-fields in Minecraft
Mushroom Fields
Mushroom fields are rare biomes that spawn in oceans as islands, completely isolated from any other landmasses.
As the ground is covered in mycelium instead of grass, mushrooms are ablt to grow in full sunlight! It is also one of the few biomes where huge mushrooms generate naturally.
While secluded, these biomes are very safe to explore, as mooshrooms are the only mobs that spawn in mushroom fields! Even the usual hostile mobs do not spawn at night!
๐ BiomeSprite nether-wastes.png: Sprite image for nether-wastes in Minecraft
The Nether
The terrain of the Nether is almost entirely made up of netherrack and vast expanses of lava. Clusters of glowstone dangle from the ceiling and mushrooms grow abundantly on the ground.
Soul sand and dangerous patches of floating gravel will also generate throughout the Nether. Near the oceans of lava, you can find patches of magma blocks.
Nether fortresses are the Nether's only naturally generated structures. While they provide valuable loot, be careful as they are also the only place where blazes and wither skeletons spawn!
Feel like mining? Nether quartz can be found scattered around the netherrack. It is the only mineral ore that can be found in the Nether.
Traveling through the Nether may be dangerous, but it is great for fast travel! For every block you travel in the Nether, you travel eight blocks in the Overworld!
๐ BiomeSprite ocean.png: Sprite image for ocean in Minecraft
Ocean
Seriously, don't forget your boat! Oceans are vast expanses of water that can cover large swatches of the Minecraft world.
Covered in seagrass and kelp, the seafloor is mostly made up of gravel, although some clay, dirt, and sand patches will generate in shallow water. The seafloor can be fairly hilly, featuring multiple peaks, valleys, and ravines.
If a peak extends above sea level, it forms an island!
Aquatic mobs, such as drowned, fish, squid, and dolphins, frequently spawn within ocean biomes.
๐ EnvSprite outer-islands.png: Sprite image for outer-islands in Minecraft
Outer Islands
End cities, chorus plants, and end gateway portals generate in the end midlands and highlands biomes. These two biomes are also the only places where shulkers generate.
The small end islands make up the mostly empty expanse that lies between larger islands. It is populated with smaller, circular islands.
The end barrens biome can be found on the rims of larger islands. This biome has steep cliffs that drop into the void. Watch your step!
๐ BiomeSprite savanna.png: Sprite image for savanna in Minecraft
Savanna
These relatively flat biomes are the only biomes where acacia trees generate naturally. Appropriately, the villages that generate in savannas are built from acacia logs and planks. Although they are less common, oak trees can also be found in savannas.
Aside from mountains, savannas are the only biomes where llamas will spawn. As horses also spawn in savannas, this makes savannas the only biome where both llamas and horses spawn!
๐ BiomeSprite snowy-taiga.png: Sprite image for snowy-taiga in Minecraft
Snowy Taiga
Snowy taigas are one of the few biomes where wolves will spawn. They are also one of the two biomes where you can find naturally generated igloos!
๐ BiomeSprite snowy-plains.png: Sprite image for snowy-plains in Minecraft
Snowy Tundra
Snowy tundras are part of the snowy biome family. They are one of the two biomes where igloos are naturally generated.
Very few trees are generated in snowy tundras, making it difficult to acquire wood, and all water sources that are exposed to the sky freeze over time.
Other than rabbits and polar bears, no passive mobs are able to spawn. However, strays are able to spawn at night.
Due to all of these harsh conditions, initial survival in snowy tundra biomes provide more of a challenge compared to other biomes!
๐ BiomeSprite swamp.png: Sprite image for swamp in Minecraft
Swamp
Characterized by a mix of flat, dry areas and shallow pools of grey-green water with floating lily pads, swamps are a part of the temperate and lush biome family.
As the water is so shallow, clay can be found abundantly. Mushrooms can also be found growing beneath the vine-covered trees.
While there are no ogres in these swamps, slimes will spawn naturally within swamp biomes. As slimes spawn even more commonly during full moons and drowned are capable of spawning underwater, swamps become very dangerous at night!
๐ BiomeSprite taiga.png: Sprite image for taiga in Minecraft
Taiga
Villages are able to generate in taiga biomes, and the houses in these villages will be built from spruce wood. Wolves and rabbits can also spawn in this biome.
With an abundance of wood, mild terrain, and useful passive mobs, taigas are convenient biomes to live in - as long as you don't mind the cold!
๐ BiomeSprite warm-ocean.png: Sprite image for warm-ocean in Minecraft
Warm Ocean
Warm oceans have light green water. The ocean floor is covered in sand and sea grass. You can also find sea pickles scattered throughout the coral. Kelp does not generate in warm oceans.
Wamr oceans will never generate directly next to land. There will always be at least 32 blocks of a lukewarm ocean bordering it if it happens to generate near land!
If any underwater ruins are generated, they will be composed of sand instead of the stone that makes up the underwater ruins of cold ocean biomes.
๐ EntitySprite mule.png: Sprite image for mule in Minecraft
Mule
Mules spawn with three assigned โequine statsโ for their health, maximum movement speed, and jump strength. When a mule foal is bred, it will be untamed. It will also inherit some of its parentsโ stats! Mules cannot be bred with other mules
Like donkeys, tamed mules can be equipped with saddles and chests.
Feeding a mule will restore its health, speed up the growth of foals, and increase the temper of untamed mules. They can be fed sugar, wheat, apples, golden carrots, golden apples, and hay bales.
When killed, mules will drop 0-2 leather. If they were equipped with a chest or saddle, they will drop this equipment as well.
๐ EntitySprite pig.png: Sprite image for pig in Minecraft
Pig (by OinkWorks)
If you put a saddle on a pig, you can ride it and join it as it wanders randomly throughout the world! Aimless travel not your thing?
If you have a carrot on a stick, you can control where the saddled pig goes! Wait! Whatโs a zombie pigman doing in the overworld?
When struck by lightning or hit by a trident with the Channeling enchantment during a thunderstorm, pigs will turn into zombie pigmen!
When an adult pig is killed, it will drop 1-3 raw porkchop. If it is killed by fire damage,it will drop cooked porkchop instead of raw porkchop. If it was saddled, it will drop the saddle.
๐ EntitySprite salmon.png: Sprite image for salmon in Minecraft
Salmon
When killed, they will drop 1 raw salmon. There is a 5% chance that they will also drop 1 bone meal on Java Edition, or a 25% chance they will drop 1-2 bones on Bedrock and Legacy Console editions.
If you use a water bucket on a salmon, you can collect it and obtain a bucket of salmon. Salmon collected and placed with buckets will not despawn naturally. Salmon, like other fish, cannot survive out of water.
They will flop around on their side before they suffocate to death.

๐ EntitySprite white-sheep.png: Sprite image for white-sheep in Minecraft
Sheep (by WoolWorks)
Brown sheep are uncommon and have a 3% chance of spawning. The rarest of tall is the pink sheep which only have a 0.164% chance of spawning!
When you use shears on an adult sheep, it will yield 1-3 wool. Sheep can be dyed any of the 16 dye colours, and sheared wool will match the colour of the sheep.
Sheep can be bred with wheat. If the parents have compatible wool colours that can be combined into a third dye colour, the resulting lamb will be a mix of their colours.
If not, the lamb will be the same colour as one of the two parents.
A regular sheep too boring for you? By naming a sheep โjeb_โ, you will turn it into a rainbow sheep with wool that cycles smoothly through the different colours!
Alas, this is only a visual effect and it will drop its actual wool colour if sheared or killed. When killed, a sheep will drop one wool matching its colours if it has not already been sheared.
It will also drop 1-2 pieces of raw mutton. If it is killed by fire damage, it will drop cooked mutton instead of raw mutton.
๐ EntitySprite squid.png: Sprite image for squid in Minecraft
Squid
When killed, a squid will drop 1x3 ink sacs. Squid cannot survive out of water.
If they find themselves on land, they will eventually suffocate to death. If they are attacked, squid will release a cloud of black ink and swim away rapidly in the opposite direction.
Guardians will also attack and kill squid. Strange Fact: in the Java Edition Beta, it was possible to milk a squid and obtain a bucket of milk! Alas, this is no longer possible. #SquidMilk
๐ EntitySprite tropical-fish.png: Sprite image for tropical-fish in Minecraft
Tropical Fish
With a whopping 3,584 different variants of tropical fish, there are far too many to list! When killed, they will drop 1 raw tropical fish. Regardless of the tropical fish killed, they will drop item will always appear as a clownfish.
There is a 5% chance that they will also drop 1 bone meal on Java Edition, or a 25% chance they will drop 1-2 bones on Bedrock and Legacy Console editions.
If you use a water bucket on a tropical fish, you can collect it and obtain a bucket of tropical fish. If you take a closer look at these buckets, youโll see that each tropical fish has a name!
Tropical fish collected and placed with buckets will not respawn naturally. Tropical fish, like other fish, cannot survive out of water. They will flop around on their side before they suffocate to death.
๐ EntitySprite turtle.png: Sprite image for turtle in Minecraft
Turtle
Turtles will follow a player holding seagrass. If two turtles are fed seagrass, they will enter love mode. One of the turtles will hold an egg in its inventory and make its way back to its home beach.
A turtleโs home beach is where it originally hatched or spawned. Once it returns, home, it will find a sand block to lay 1-4 eggs on. Turtle eggs will undergo three stages before they hatch into baby turtles.
Baby turtles can only hatch at night if their eggs are on the sand. If you were to use a Silk Touch tool on turtle eggs, you can relocate the turtle eggs and effectively set their home beach wherever you want!
When a baby turtle grows up into its adult form, it drops one scute.
When killed, an adult turtle will drop 0-2 pieces of seagrass.

Naturally spawning in the Overworld, these iconic mobs drop 0-2 gunpowder when killed. However, if a crepeer is killed by a skeleton or stray, it will drop a random music disc!
If a creeper is struck by lightning, it becomes charged, amplifying its explosion power!
๐ BlockSprite redstone-dust-t-left.png: Sprite image for redstone-dust-t-left in Minecraft
AND Gate
Once you've mastered the basics you can build some pretty crazy contraptions with redstone! This is an example of an AND gate.
To power the lamp, both levers need to be turned on at the same time. This particular logic gate has been used a lot behind the scenes to power this puzzle!
๐ BlockSprite stone-button.png: Sprite image for stone-button in Minecraft
Buttons
Everyone loves to press a good button. Pressing a button in Minecraft will only output a redstone signal for a short period of time however wooden button can be activated for longer periods by shooting an arrow at them. Take a shot!
๐ BlockSprite redstone-comparator.png: Sprite image for redstone-comparator in Minecraft
Comparator 1
A comparator placed next to a block with an inventory (such as a chest or hopper) will output a signal based on how full the inventory is.
Fill up this chest with enough items to turn on the lamp.
๐ BlockSprite redstone-comparator-on.png: Sprite image for redstone-comparator-on in Minecraft
Comparator 2
Here we have a hopper and a comparator detecting how full it is. There's also a bit of redstone logic thrown in there, but don't worry too much about that.
The comparator is detecting how full the hopper is so you need to add some items to create an output. Not enough items and the signal will be too weak, too many items and the signal will go too far and disable the redstone clock.
Try and work out the right amount of items to put into the hopper.
Hint: if in doubt, try half. Always go halfsies.
๐ BlockSprite redstone-comparator-off.png: Sprite image for redstone-comparator-off in Minecraft
Comparator 3
A comparator can look into block inventories using the input on its back (back input), but it also has an input on the side (side input).
The comparator will compare the two - if the side input is more powerful than the back input, then the comparator will not output anything. If it is as or less powerful than the back input, it will output a signal of the same strength as the back input.
๐ BlockSprite redstone-comparator.png: Sprite image for redstone-comparator in Minecraft
Comparator 4
Check out the normal comparator device before giving this one a go!
Comparators have a clever little thing called 'subtract mode'.
In subtract mode the comparator takes the signal going in the back (closest to the redstone block) and subtracts the value of the redstone signal going in the side.
One of the levers will give the subtract comparator just enough power so that the redstone signal will travel the exact distance it needs to!
๐ BlockSprite detector-rail-on.png: Sprite image for detector-rail-on in Minecraft
Detector Rails
Detector rails are minecart rails which can detect if something is on top of them, essential for epic roller-coaster building! You might have noticed them in the tunnel that you first travelled through to get here.
๐ BlockSprite lever.png: Sprite image for lever in Minecraft
Lever
๐ BlockSprite daylight-detector.png: Sprite image for daylight-detector in Minecraft
Light Detector
Daylight detectors detect the brightness of the sun and will output a signal based on this brightness.
They can be connected to a redstone lamp, and with some clever tinkering they can be made to turn on the lamp automatically at night, and turn it off during the morning - it's always good to save energy!
๐ BlockSprite redstone-repeater.png: Sprite image for redstone-repeater in Minecraft
Locking Repeater
Repeaters are handy little blocks which can delay a signal for an amount of time, but they can also be used to 'lock' signals in one state. If you power one repeater with another from the side, that repeater will become 'locked', and
remember the input it had before it was 'locked'. You can then change the back input, and the output from the repeater will not change.
This machine has one repeater pointing into the side of another, which can therefore be locked. To power the lamp you will need the output from this repeater to be off, whilst keeping the lever from its back input to stay on.
If you do this in the correct order, the repeater will be locked whilst in its off state, and the lamp will turn on!
๐ BlockSprite pressure-plates.png: Sprite image for pressure-plates in Minecraft
Pressure Plates
Minecraft has a few different types of pressure plates. Wood and stone pressure plates will emit a full signal with any item, player or creature is on them.
'Weighted' pressure plates will output a signal based on the number of items or creatures on them. These come in two types, 'light' and 'heavy'.
Heavy weighted pressure plates (iron) require more items or creatures than light weighted pressure plates (gold) to output the same strength signal.

๐ BlockSprite redstone-torch.png: Sprite image for redstone-torch in Minecraft
Redstone Torch
A redstone torch can be used to activate redstone devices but it also can be used to invert a redstone signal. If the block it is placed on is powered it will turn off and if it is unpowered it will turn on.
๐ BlockSprite slime-block.png: Sprite image for slime-block in Minecraft
Slime Blocks
Sticky pistons can push and pull one block connected to it. When a slime block is connected to a piston, it will also push and block any block connected to it (except obsidian and bedrock).
Flick the levers at the base of the three pistons to make the redstone signal flow through the device and reach the redstone lamp. You may want to jump on top of the device to get a better view!
๐ BlockSprite piston-side-left.png: Sprite image for piston-side-left in Minecraft
T Flip-Flop 1
This may sound like some beach-appropriate footwear, but this is a serious piece of electronic equipment so stop dreaming about sand, sea and sunshine and listen up!
This device works like a lever, switching from an on-state to an off-state with a simple pulse input. Although it works like a lever, it is activated with a button input. Pressing the button will switch it between on and off.
๐ BlockSprite piston-side-right.png: Sprite image for piston-side-right in Minecraft
T Flip-Flop 2
Now we're getting fancy. Try fixing the toggle flip device if you have not already before attempting this!
This device is three 'toggle flip-flops' connected together with one button input. Each one will scroll through the combinations of the next one giving a total of 8 ways to light the lamps.
Only one of those combinations will light up all three lamps, which is what you need to do!
