Creative is an unlimited sandbox. Survival starts you with nothing: mine blocks and walk over the drops to collect them, watch your hearts and air, and build with what you earn. Craft planks from logs, sticks from planks, and a crafting table from four planks. At the table, make a pickaxe (3 planks + 2 sticks) to mine stone, then upgrade to stone, iron and diamond tools. Eight cobblestone make a furnace: smelt iron and gold ore into ingots, sand into glass, logs into charcoal, and cobblestone back into stone. Coal ore drops coal, the best fuel. Iron ingots make iron tools, while diamond ore drops diamonds for faster, longer-lived tools. Nine gold ingots make a placeable gold block, and one block crafts back into nine ingots. Eight planks make a chest with 27 slots: right-click to store items, Shift-click to transfer, and break it to spill everything back out. The right tool mines faster; stone and ores need a strong enough pickaxe to drop, and tools wear out with use. Diamond tools mine at 8× speed and last 1,561 uses. Cows, pigs and sheep wander the grass in small herds. Left-click one to attack; tools deal more damage. Cows and pigs drop raw meat, while sheep drop mutton and white wool. Right-click food to restore hunger and saturation, or cook meat in a furnace for a hearty meal. Keep your hunger bar full to regenerate health; starving drains health and prevents sprinting. White wool can be placed like any building block. At night, zombies spawn on dry, open ground away from you, chase when you get close, and hit with a shared half-second damage cooldown so a crowd cannot delete you in one tick. They drop nothing, and daylight burns them away unless they are in shade or water. Zombies are session-only: the save keeps the time of day, so Continue at night raises a fresh wave rather than restoring monsters inside your base. The world autosaves to this browser: blocks you build or break, containers, inventories, animals, vitals and the time of day all come back when you choose Continue. Dropped items and hostile mobs are not saved.
