Couple months ago I bought Minecraft<\/a> for my son, after his tedious wishing and whining. Actually, I was going to buy it for myself, but never had got into it. Like my son, I have played with it, toyed with it, and died many times within it. Damn you Creepers<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Yes, I have built like everybody else several castles to keep my avatar from harmsway and well fed. However, lately the game had started to taste a little bit stale. There were nothing new or fun things to do: adventuring in the mines, seeking gold and other treasures – been there, done that. And as I am not interested in The End<\/a>, the excessive hoarding has no meaning for me.<\/p>\n

However, last week it hit me\u00a0 – how about a castle of truly Grand Design? In Survival<\/a> mode? Without any cheats? Sure, why not?<\/p>\n

The mode was easy to decide as the Survival<\/em> is the only mode I like. Infinite amount of blocks in Creative<\/a> mode is childsplay. And because, the Monsters are really after You! No cheats<\/em> of course, because cheating is always Bad!<\/p>\n

The castle part was also easy: not a castle from history (somebody has already done those), nor from my own imagination (my imagination sucks), but from an old module (Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Oriental Adventures – Ochimo The Spirit Warrior<\/a>) with floorplans (10 feet = 4 blocks) provided: Obawangchicheng – Cit<\/em>y of The Dead Spirit King<\/em>.<\/p>\n

I have been building it now for a couple of days, and it really is Insane<\/em> task. Lets see how this Epic quest<\/em> unravels itself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
