Playing Minecraft is an excellent way for players to overcome boredom. They can spend hours exploring, mining, and doing much more with a nearly endless array of things to do in-game. But what about players who want a more creative outlet?

For many gamers, building things is one of the most fun parts of Minecraft. With the only limit being the imagination, they can build anything they’d like to in-game.

The possibilities are endless, but they can be a bit overwhelming, leading to some hesitancy about what to build.

An underwater survival base is a fun and practical way for players to use their building skills. By doing so, they can have near-total control over their building environment.

Additionally, hostile mobs can spawn much less regularly in underwater bases, making this an excellent choice for more safety-minded users.


4) Medieval castle

Castles in Minecraft are a fun long-term project. Gamers can build all sorts of castles, from medieval builds to more modern-inspired ones.

Castles can take a lot of materials to build, making them an excellent project for those running creative mode or for users who are late into their Minecraft playthrough.

At the top of this list is the Nether sword portal. Built using a Nether portal as a base, it is decorated to look like a sword jutting out of the ground.
