Another Top 10 Minecraft Creations

Welcome to WatchMojo, and today, we’re counting down our picks for the Top 20 Greatest “Minecraft” Creations! For this list, we’re looking at the most creative, ambitious, and impressive creations to ever be made by the “Minecraft” community. What’s the most impressive build you’ve seen in the game? Did it make the list? Let us know in the comments below!

We’ve seen plenty of forests, deserts, mountains, and arctic tundras in “Minecraft”, but the closest we’ve gotten to man-made areas are villages, temples, and Pillager towers. So, what would a “Minecraft” city look like? Well, user mattuFIN managed to create a massive metropolis that had gone through two construction processes before settling on this rendition. Humbly named “Mattupolis”, this city pulls various architecture and geography from Western Pacific regions, most notably Seattle, Washington and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. One could easily get lost exploring the various skyscrapers, bending highways, and calming beaches. Admittedly, we’d probably take a vacation here if we could.

Mount Olympus has gone through several iterations across movies, television, and of course, video games. So, it was only a matter of time before someone tried recreating it in “Minecraft”. User ChaosOlymp did a marvelous job at capturing the splendor and might of Olympus. It truly looks like a place fit for the gods, though something about it looks awfully familiar. PlayStation fans may recognize the main building at the top is based off the same version of Mount Olympus featured in the acclaimed “God of War” series. Now, we just gotta flood this place and it’ll truly look like Kratos’s home! ...What, too soon?

We wouldn’t have expected a place called “Slums and Manors” to look so exceptionally beautiful both in visuals and structure! This little town made by user SebastianMaker hangs on the side of a hill and wields a bit of mystery. Who owns the massive mansion at the top? How much power do they possess over the village at the bottom? How many assassins might have tried taking them down to liberate the village? You know what, maybe we’re getting ahead of ourselves and this is just a piece based on unjust hierarchy in impoverished towns. Regardless, this is still a fun map to explore and take in the sights.

While buildings and architecture have been a prominent theme when it comes to creating stuff in “Minecraft”, many others have used blocks to build astounding sculptures. This one from user Dr_Bond is one piece we’re more than happy to highlight. Here, a large skeleton sits on a throne surrounded by flowers, bony arms, and a pair of majestic wings behind it. Honestly, this looks like it could serve as the cover of a heavy metal album, particularly for a band like Trivium or Avenged Sevenfold. The only thing it's missing is that loud “Parental Advisory” sticker.

The Danish Geodata Agency

We get it - travelling is incredibly expensive! (That’s why we have MojoTravels to help you decide where to go!) However, if you don’t have the cash or just want to spend more time in “Minecraft”, well, the Danish Geodata Agency invites you to Denmark...or, they did. Yes, the country was made on a one to one scale, meaning the entire country was basically Minecraft-ified with complete accuracy. Unfortunately, some visitors managed to blow up most of the map after they found a workaround on the map’s disabled TNT setting. While Denmark became a popular map among players, it appears to be unavailable to download now.

Denmark may not be available anymore, but there is still one European landmark you can visit, one that serves as a proud piece of Germany’s history. The Cologne Cathedral comes to us from the blocky hands of user DivineMedicus. This piece of Gothic architecture boasts an insane amount of detail from the crevices and edges of the walls to the angelic statues in the courtyard. It may not have taken DivineMedicus six hundred years to finish building it, but we couldn’t imagine this taking shorter than a couple of years, too.

Let’s take one more moment to appreciate the style of Greek architecture as we take a look at The Acropolis! A trio of builders known as PaleoTech were able to build a one to one replica of the real-world landmark. Now, you can take in the majestic temples, unique layout, and gorgeous scenery without having to hop on a plane and spending money. Of course, nothing ever holds a candle to the original, but this recreation of the Acropolis is still worthy of a few visits! Those eager for more amazing builds might want to keep their eyes on PaleoTech.

The Floo Network

Yeah, it was only a matter of time before we started slapping fictional locations on this list, but hey, we can’t help it - we are a pop culture channel, after all! And so, we have to commend The Floo Network in their efforts to recreate the famed school from the “Harry Potter” franchise, Hogwarts Academy. This isn’t just a map to explore either - it’s a full-blown mod! Use your wand to cast spells, explore Diagon Alley, uncover secrets, and even take part in a game of Quidditch! Whether you’re a fan of the Wizarding World or just “Minecraft” in general, this is definitely worth the download!

In case you aren’t familiar with them, QunaticsBuild is a French team of “Minecraft” builders that have gone to make wondrous and breathtaking maps based around fantasy, mythology, and science fiction. Lord of Time and Nova Celes City are some of their most impressive work, but the best map they’ve made is Map Zlan2020. With its forest of reefs, ancient ruins, and Atlantis-esque city, this underwater utopia is a place you could definitely get lost in! This map isn’t just good for meandering about, though - it also holds jump courses, a PvP arena, a boat race, and archery practice! It’s practically its own little amusement park.

Just to temper expectations, no, this is not an exact recreation of the planet Earth. Do you know how long it would take to rebuild every single part of the globe? No, this is more of a one to fifteen hundred scale version of the Earth. Creator LetsLente spent a painstakingly long time - near-forty hours - to assemble this map, and it required a lot of layering and attention to detail. Admittedly, there are some areas that are not in their entirely accurate biome, but as LetsLente explains in his “Making Of” video, the goal was to maintain as much realism as possible while also incorporating all of the biomes featured in “Minecraft”. We won’t get nitpicky. From where we stand, mission accomplished!

Video games have come a long way since “Tetris” debuted in 1984. At this point, it’s hard to think of any gaming platform that didn’t get a “Tetris” let alone a clone of it. Of course, one user had to find some way to get the block-stacking title into “Minecraft”, and that user was primeaustin. It plays almost exactly the same way as regular “Tetris”, but you can use potions to make the game easier or harder for yourself and is compatible with whatever settings you toggle on the server. If you want a real challenge, maybe try out the Hardcore mode after you beat the Normal difficulty!
