How to Survive in Minecraft/Introduction
Minecraft is a sandbox game created by Mojang. In Minecraft, you can create whatever you want, provided you have the resources.
In Minecraft, there are 2 main gamemodes. The default game mode is survival. You have health and hunger, you have to defend yourself, you can take damage, and you have to eat. You have to collect blocks in order to do anything. If you don't want to do any of that, but just build, there is the Creative Mode. You cannot take damage, you have no hunger to quench, and you can choose any block you want and have infinity of that block. This book is covering survival, but if you want to use Creative read the Mechanics page.
I hope you enjoy this book!
