About this game
Minecraft is today one of the most popular games that we can find, with versions for most consoles on the market, most operating systems and for almost any mobile device. Build, build and build is the main objective, although we will also have to know how to safeguard from the many dangers that plague the different worlds of this simple, but excellent and addictive game
Enter this open world and play to create your own map, explore your surroundings and develop your own universe. By building and placing blocks you will form all the elements that are part of your city, without any limit.
Being an open world video game, you will be free to do whatever you want. Except in some of its game modes, normally you will not have a specific mission to fulfill so you can dedicate yourself to building freely using blocks that you will find. Download Minecraft, you will find it available for Android and iOS.
Each of these square stones will represent the different elements of nature and what you will have to do is explore the entire territory to find and modify the blocks to create new figures that will help you survive. None of the Minecraft worlds is the same, you will never find two the same, this is due to the use of algorithms when creating them and the hand of each of the players, so each game you play will be completely random.
One of the advantages of Minecraft is its versatility, you can play individually or even do it with friends. Its mechanics make its players want to overcome more and more exciting challenges and never want the adventure to end.
This game of squares is divided into four game modes, the main one is survival, in which you will have to get resources to be able to survive the attacks of the creatures that arise, but you also have available is creative and adventure. In the first one you are the one who sets the rules and you can build freely with unlimited resources, without fear of being attacked. The second, instead, is dedicated to those who like to dedicate themselves to designing maps for other players and finally you have the spectator mode, with which you can continue the game even if they have eliminated you.
Whether you have already played Minecraft or have not yet dared to try it, now is the time. Be part of this community that has made this title a true benchmark in the world of video games.

Tips
3 Tricks for Minecraft you didn't know
| Trick | Description |
|---|---|
1Invisible Item Frames | Place an item frame, then use a chat command like `/give @p item_frame{EntityTag:{Invisible:1b}}` to get an invisible item frame. Place the invisible item frame and your item will appear to be floating. |
2Colored Signs with Formatting | Use color codes and formatting codes directly in sign text. Precede your text with a color code (e.g., &1 for dark blue) or a formatting code (e.g., &l for bold). Example: "&1&lMy Sign" will create a dark blue, bold sign. |
3Elytra Launch with Trident and Riptide | Equip an elytra, get some height, and then use a trident enchanted with Riptide in the rain or while standing in water. Launch the trident straight up to propel yourself forward significantly faster than using fireworks. |
