I wanted to share this since Minecraft is a bit of a strange game. It has so many mechanics and depth, but there’s not really any in-game tutorials.

This is a playthrough of someone who knows very little about Minecraft, but who wants to beat the game without looking anything up or getting help from anybody.

There are also two other parts for anyone interested

• Part 2
• Part 3

For your convenience, here are some timestamps for interesting moments from Part 1:

• 0:01:16 Spawns in
• 0:03:32 First night
• 0:04:41 First death
