Game Guide

Minecraft is an open-world "sandbox" game — there's no single goal, just a world to explore, build in, and survive in. New players should know: your first in-game day lasts about 10 minutes before nightfall brings hostile creatures, so a good first move is punching a few trees to collect wood (10-15 logs is a solid start), then crafting basic tools and a shelter before dark. Minecraft has two main ways to play: Survival (gather resources, manage health/hunger, build to survive) and Creative (unlimited materials, no danger, pure building) — Creative is a gentler starting point if the survival pressure feels like too much at first.
