Description

In Minecraft: Builders & Biomes, 2 to 4 players explore the Overworld, building structures and mining resources, just like in the original digital game. The goal is to earn points for structures and the largest connected biomes on their player boards, which can be forest, desert, mountain, or snowy tundra spaces. Familiar foes like Endermen and Creepers appear throughout the game, and defeating them using collected weapons earns players points and additional awards. The game is easy to learn and plays out over 30 to 60 minutes, with scoring happening three times as the resource cube's layers are depleted. Players can alter the biome of a space on their board by placing buildings, and they score for the largest connected areas of biomes, materials, and structures. With its unique blend of exploration, building, and combat, Minecraft: Builders & Biomes is a fun and engaging game for fans of the digital series and newcomers alike.
