How to play the Crafting Challenge

How do I play the Crafting Challenge?

Every round shows one Minecraft item and a set of materials. Drag the materials onto the 3×3 workbench — or tap a material, then tap a cell — until the pattern matches the real crafting recipe, then press OK — Check. With a keyboard, press Enter on a material and then on a grid cell; the arrow keys move between cells.

Can a recipe be shifted or mirrored?

Yes. Shaped recipes may be shifted around the grid and mirrored left to right, exactly like in Minecraft. Shapeless recipes only need the right ingredients. Some materials are distractors that do not belong to the recipe at all.

How is the score calculated?

Your score depends on the recipe's difficulty and how fast you solve it. Each hint reveals one cell but costs part of the round score, and wrong checks cost points too. Solved rounds build your streak — skipping an unsolved puzzle resets it.

What does the leaderboard rank?

Your best single round. The counter at the top shows both: Best round (the value that is ranked) and Session (all rounds of this visit added up). Logged-in players keep their rank permanently and earn site points.

Stuck on an item? Look it up in the crafting recipe guide, and check the mob drops to see where ingredients such as string, bones or gunpowder come from.
