Minecraft is built on blocks! There are hundreds of different blocks, each with unique textures, properties, and crafting recipes. These are the foundation of all your creations.
Common Building Materials:
- Wood: Planks, logs, stairs, slabs, fences, doors. Versatile and easily accessible.
- Stone: Cobblestone, stone bricks, polished stone, diorite, granite, andesite. Durable and aesthetically varied.
- Dirt/Grass: Basic ground blocks, useful for terraforming and early shelters.
- Sand/Gravel: Affected by gravity, useful for glass (sand) and concrete (gravel).
- Concrete: Craftable in various colors, smooth texture.
- Terracotta/Glazed Terracotta: Decorative blocks with unique patterns.
- Glass: Transparent, made from sand.
