Minecraft: The basics

15/11/18
So you have finally bought Minecraft and can’t wait to play it. You have settled down on the sofa with a cuppa tea and your about to play Minecraft! Then you realised you don’t know how to play!
Well my friend….
I’m going to show you the basics!
When you have created a new world you will spawn in what we call ‘biomes’ in the ‘overworld dimension’. There are 8 types of biomes;

Jungle biome:

You have a health bar which is filled with 10 hearts, food bar which is filled up with 10 drumsticks, experience points under that and a hotbar to show what you have in your inventory and what you are holding. Some of these things might not show up on P.E mode.

Surviving the first day:
Chop down a couple of trees and gather wool from 3 sheep. This will make a bed for you
Before it gets dark try make yourself a basic house about 4×4, with a door
Make a crafting table and a furnace as you can create anything with them
Make some torches with coal or charcoal (this will stop from mobs spawning near your house) and put them inside and outside your house
Stock up on food and materials
If you follow those steps you should be able to survive the first day without dying!
