New on Java Realms: Destruction, Terror & Mayhem

Destroy is a minigame that is exactly what it says on the tin, if that tin is stuffed with explosives! Those with a PhD in destruction can just jump directly into the fray, but for those who are just dipping their toes into carnage creation there’s a crash course available! Tim the tutorial robot will teach you everything you need to know about redstone-powered TNT cannons and more. What’s it all for? To kill the sheep on the opposing team naturally. The halcyon days of your vanilla server are over, here you must have an exposive strategy in order to get your mutton and/or win!

BOOM BRAWL

by Wooferscoots

Boom Brawl on the other hand cuts out the middleman: instead of directing your ire at those pesky sheep, just blow each other up! The TNT served this time around only explodes outwards in horizontal, non-diagonal lines, so unless you have very compliant opponents, you will need to plan your explosive incursions ahead. Be cautious that this functionality is limited to Boom Brawl – using TNT to defrost your fridge and assuming that the roof and ceiling etc. won’t take any damage is not advisable, trust me I, uh, have a friend who knows.

DARTBOARD

by Dwalinn_ & _WABek_

After a long day of exploding stuff, I like to wind down with a round of throwing darts. Preferably at boards, and luckily enough Dartboard can supplement my needs on both accounts! One click determines your aim on the horizontal axis, one for the vertical and you will also be able to pick the force of your throw. Best believe that when that new cyborg arm enhancement I found on Wish.com hits my mailbox, I’m uploading the Dartboard source code to it so I can dominate the competition and impress the populace of all the pubs in my city.
