Mini-Games Galore!
Ah, mini-games! Those saviors of Minecraft that take our vanilla-jaded
minds and turn them onto something new and awesome that makes
Minecraft feel like a whole new game.
Of course, we do love vanilla Minecraft, but after countless dozens of
hours, even the world's best game can get a little old hat. Lucky for
us Crafters, Minecraft is set up so that it is ideal for intrepid creators
around the world to modify and turn into all sorts of other games.
Servers like
mc.hypixel.net
are where mini-games not only get played, but created and tested by thou-
sands upon thousands of players each day.
We call these mini-games, and they're essentially just alternative ways
to play Minecraft. Some of them are just slight tweaks to the Survival
Mode that manage to make it feel entirely new and unique, while others
barely resemble anything you'd see or do in a regular game of vanilla
Crafting.
As we've done with the last few editions of our topic, here are a few of
our favorite current mini-games in the Minecraft world today, as well
as a bit more info on some of the modes we've talked about in the past.
