Introduction Beware the Night

Inside the world of Minecraft , grass and trees surround you. Some rocks and coal are nearby. The sun is high in the sky, but you know it wont stay there long. Soon it will get dark. Thats when the dangerous creatures come out.

You quickly gather wood from the trees and put together a sword and a pickax. Next, you need to make a shelter. You look around. No cave is nearby, and you arent sure you have enough wood or time to build a cabin. Instead, you grab your pickax and start digging. You decide to hide underground. Time is running out. If you dont prepare for the night, you might not survive.
