Back to the ten worlds

0The Surface

Where it starts

You wake up on the Surface with the Artisan's Scroll and a sketched map. Progression stops at iron until you earn more: enchanting, anvils and the Nether answer only once World 2 is done, the End once World 8 is. The Guardian's Sanctuary waits a few hundred blocks from spawn. Use its altar to wake the Block Guardian.

  • 2worlds before enchanting, anvils and the Nether
  • 8worlds before the End
