The different biomes which can be found throughout Minecraft each have unique features. Some of them, like jungles, even have items you can’t find anywhere else (cocoa beans in this case). Others, like swamps, feature enemies you won’t find elsewhere – which means enemy drops...
The Blocklings mod is just what every lonely Minecraft player on solo worlds has been waiting for – a mod which introduces a number of potential new allies who grow with the player, becoming stronger as more time passes. This is far beyond what you’ve...
Horses were a pretty big deal when they finally found their place in the world of Minecraft. But the hay blocks which area used to feed and heal them never really got much attention. Sure, they make a good way to store massive amounts of...
