Hello fellow Gamers welcome to the Minecraft Noob vs Minecraft pro series of posts. Today we are going to start a series of reviews on Mastering Minecraft and how to play the game.

With over 112 million active monthly players let’s see what the hype is about and why it is rated the BEST-SELLING VIDEO GAME OF ALL TIME.

At first glance it has a very old school look and feel, taking you back to the original 8bit style graphics.. yikes I think I just gave away my age (rolling eye balls).

In Minecraft there are 2 playing modes, Creative and Survival.

Creative Mode

In Creative mode you can create to your hearts content and let your imagination run wild.

You can literally create your own worlds.

Survival Mode

In Survival mode you can be just as creative except you are not able to fly and you must focus on staying alive and healthy. This makes the game super exciting and awesome in a different way.

Choosing a Character

Choose between Steve or Alex or if you have Minecoins you can create your own custom character. Steve is the default character and the star of the game.

What is the object of the game…?

The object is to create and survive. If you want to survive Diamond Armor will help and this means digging for diamonds which will make you both rich and keep you safe.

Day and night

Build your house in the day and at night when the zombies and mobs come out the fun part is to stay alive. One of the first things you must do in survival mode is to build a house.

Need some creative ideas of how to build the ultimate survival house or base? Check out our latest creation below.

As you can see we have a house completed which was our goal. We can now be safe at night! Thank goodness. Watch out for our next post on Mastering Minecraft where you can learn more about how to succeed at the game.

All the best and keep on gaming.
