Minecraft fan builds an inspiring post apocalyptic city worth seeing

Massive projects in Minecraft are some of the most sought-after activities in the blocky world. Talented builders spend days, months, and even years working on a single passion project and the hard work pays off. Players appreciate the work put into these worlds and it goes to show how Minecraft has become something more than just a simple game.

A Minecraft player, u/Internal-Ride9514, posted some images on the game’s subreddit showing how they created a post apocalyptic tropical city in the blocky world that took them an entire year to finish. The pictures showed massive, dilapidated buildings taken over by the flora, broken highway, and even some dead trees. The details and scale of the project were commendable.

The original poster mentioned that they wanted to show the atmosphere of decay with hollow, concrete skyscrapers that are completely empty. The hollowness also signified the abandoned nature of this area and how plant life takes over completely.

u/Hugh-Jainis mentioned that this “abandoned” setting is their favorite and added that they used to play on Hunger Games servers around a decade ago which had very similar vibes. The original poster agreed with them that Hunger Games has one of their favorite atmospheres.

u/PhilosophicalPierRat suggested that a zombie game mode in this map would be perfect. u/Its_BigSteve9388 pointed out the amount of effort needed to place all the leaves, grass, vines, and moss apart from the structures made in the world.

u/Tatterjacket were impressed by the atmosphere of the build and asked the original poster if they ever played the game A Letter to the Future, suggesting that it has a very similar apocalyptic vibe to it and the OP would appreciate the game’s take on it.

Massive build projects in Minecraft

Minecraft players have always amazed the game’s community with their unique and often massive builds. Some recreate real structures such as famous buildings, towns, etc., while others get inspired by the world of fiction. Recently, a player made the castle of Winterfell from the A Game of Thrones series with great details.

These projects often require a lot of planning and work but the results are always worth it. Others take a more technical approach to create machines using redstones. Talented builders have created some amazing machines such as automatic doors, displays, computers, and even a ChatGPT-like LLM mode.

All of these builds show that Minecraft is not just a basic game that allows players to explore the world but also pushes their creative skills to new levels. With updates such as The Copper Age, players are getting more items to make their builds even better.
