Open BlockCraft World and press Play. Your world is built while the bar fills up.
Press Enter world, then click inside the game so your mouse controls the camera.
Want a particular world? Type a seed in the World seed box and press New world. The same seed always makes the same world, so you can share it with friends.
2. Move around
Walk with WASD, look with the mouse, jump with Space and sprint with Shift. In water, hold Space to swim up. Press F to switch flying on or off: Space rises and Shift drops.
3. Mine, collect and craft
New worlds start in Survival. Look at a block and hold left click to mine it. Cracks appear, the block breaks, and it drops as an item you collect by walking over it. Right click places the block in your selected slot.
Your first job is wood: hold left click on a tree trunk. Then press E to open your inventory and crafting. Turn logs into planks, planks into sticks, and four planks into a crafting table. Place the table and right-click it to unlock tools: a wooden pickaxe first, then stone tools once you've mined some cobblestone. A furnace (8 cobblestone) smelts iron ore into iron and cooks raw meat.
Better pickaxes mine faster and reach rarer ores: stone for iron, iron for gold and diamonds. A goal box in the top-left corner shows you what to do next. Prefer to just build? Pick Creative when you start a new world for unlimited blocks and flying.

4. Survive your first night
Animals wander around in daylight. After dark come zombies, skeletons that shoot arrows, creepers that explode and spiders that climb walls. Some ways to get through the night:
Wall yourself in. Before sunset, place blocks around you two high with a roof on top, so nothing can walk up to you.
Dig in. Mine down a few blocks into a hillside and block the entrance behind you.
Light it up. Craft torches from coal and sticks. Monsters won't spawn near them.
Fight back. A sword hits much harder than your fist. Keep moving so you aren't surrounded, and back away from a hissing creeper.
Sleep. Craft a bed from 3 wool and 3 planks, then right-click it at night to skip to morning.
Stay fed. Cook meat in a furnace and right-click to eat. Your health only regenerates when your hunger bar is nearly full.
If you do die, press Respawn and you're back in the same world.
5. Saving
BlockCraft World saves your world in your browser automatically. Come back on the same device and browser and it's still there. Starting a new world, or clearing your browsing data, replaces the save.
