Question

How long will it take me to build this?

Community Answer

This depends on how much experience you have with Minecraft, and how much time you have on your hands. An experienced Minecraft player could complete this within a week. A less-experience Minecrafter player will need more time.

Question

When I was going to download the mod, it said it might harm my computer. What should I do? Should I download it or should I try different mods?

Community Answer

If it said exe in front, that just means it may not be a real program, just a virus. Use that software if you trust it, and look at reviews about it.

Question

What materials do we need?

Community Answer

You can build a castle out any materials you'd like, but Stone and Cobblestone are the most common materials people use. You can use Quartz to build a stunning white castle or obsidian to build an imposing black castle. You'll also want some stone stairs and fences to add accents, and wood planks for floors and interior roofing.

Question

How can you make a good castle with moats, etc., easy and quickly?

Community Answer

To speed up the construction process, plan everything out on a sheet of grid paper. This will provide an easy reference for you to use while you're building, and will help ensure that everything lines up properly.

Question

Should I make a round castle or one that is mostly square?

Community Answer

Whichever you find easier. I would do a square because I think it's simple and I don't usually build big, technical things. You can do a round one if you think that would look better and/or you would find it easier.

Question

How do I build a castle without grid paper and pencil?

Community Answer

There is no exact way to do this. You can look up "Minecraft Castle tutorials" on a search engine to see a step by step guide to create an exact castle. Or, just look at the land around you and build what would work well. Some pictures of real castles can provide inspiration, and so can pics of Minecraft ones. Don't forget that watching tutorials can provide inspiration. Be creative.

Question

How long will it take to make a castle after getting iron tools?

Community Answer

It depends on how big and how detailed you want your castle to be. A very detailed castle can take weeks or even months to complete, although more detailed is not always better.

Question

How do I make a gate in Minecraft?

Community Answer

You could use fences. They are the closest thing that looks like a gate. Or, you could do complex redstone to make it move up and down.

Question

Can mobs climb ladders? I want to heighten my bridge, allow access to it with ladders, but I'm afraid that dangerous mobs might climb the ladders.

Ashlyn Martin

Yes, but only if it is in their path of chasing, if they aren’t chasing anything, they won’t climb it.
