Realms Plus: March 2023

In Tree Mansion by CrackedCubes you’ll begin your Survival spawn as the owner of an enormous, sky-high, mansion! Grab your friends or play solo, just be ready to start your newest roleplaying adventure. Will you craft a tale about a tree-based supervillain, or a misunderstood, millionaire squirrel? The choice is yours! I think I’m going to try and befriend as many woodland mobs as I can and invite them inside. Isn’t that what usually happens in fairy tales?

For more roleplaying fun this month, you’ll want to check out  School – Roleplay by Aurrora, Mech Suits by Team Vaeron, Kingdom Craft by TNTgames, and MEGA CONSTRUCTION by SNDBX!

Duels 1vs1 by Waypoint Studios

Dueling feels like a very storybook thing to do, which is why we’re hopping straight into Duels 1vs1 by Waypoint Studios! In this combat-packed map you’ll need to pick your armor, weapon, and fighting style (mine is always to panic and button mash) before entering the arena of your choice. Test your skills against your favorite frenemies, start a duel tournament on your Realm, and may the best fighter win!

If you want even more combat maps, don’t miss Wild Archery Hunting by G2Crafted, Cops and Robbers: Alcatraz by Podcrash, and Weapons Skyblock by HorizonBlocks! And if you like your fighting served with a side of scary, then perhaps Escape the Horror House Part 2 from PixelOneUp, OP MOBS! From KA Studios, and 4 Escape Rooms from Mine-North are perfect for you!

Cars Cars Cars by 57Digital

Fairy tales usually involve a trusty steed – a companion you can cover some blocky ground with. In Cars Cars Cars by 57Digital you can choose from 35+ blocky vehicles and explore the Overworld from a brand-new perspective! Rock around in a mini-van, breeze past in a sports car, or chug along in a truck. Me and my new steed are going to start by challenging everyone to a go-kart race! Ready? Steady? Go!

For more mechanical fun this month, don’t miss Hoverboards by BLOCKLAB Studios.  If you’d prefer a furrier steed for your fairy tales this March, then try Trained Pets by Panascais, UNICORNS+ by Pickaxe Studios, or PETS! By Pickaxe Studios!

Cubed 8x8 by Glowfischdesigns

Most of my favorite stories start off with an imaginative new world. In Cubed 8x8 you can transform your Overworld into a gloriously simplified 8-bit version! Craft on 8-bit tables, wave to 8-bit golems, and even run from 8-bit creepers! What’s more, there are eight 8-bit skins included (a very fitting number!) so you can blend in with the bright and colorful Overworld around you.

For more texture packs this month, don’t miss the Pastel Texture Pack from Square Dreams.

Lucky Block: Nether by Ninja Block

Now we’re at the point in our blocky fairy tale where we must venture into the unknown and fight mine lucky blocks: this time, with a Nether twist! In Lucky Block: Nether by Ninja Block, you’ll step into a warped wood castle, and discover some mysterious blocks. Strike the lucky blocks and you might find a shiny emerald, or perhaps some strong armor. Of course you could also find a ghast… how lucky will you be?

For more blocky fun this month, why not test out Lucky Blocks by Spark Universe, and One Block Zombies by Builders Horizon! And for those who prefer their blocks served at a height, perhaps Rage Parkour and Pure Parkour from Rage Craft will scratch that itch!

Princess Castle by Diluvian

I’ve always felt that castles make great settings for stories, and Princess Castle by Diluvian will certainly inspire some exciting tales! This enormous base can become your next Survival spawn, or your next Peaceful mode adventure. Climb the tall turrets and explore every nook and cranny to uncover all the hidden chests! You may even find something to help you activate that End portal…

If you liked this, then why not try The Ultimate Dragon World by ASCENT where you’ll need to fight to become a legendary dragon tamer. And if you’d rather chill than tame fire-breathing beasts, then then take a wander around the Crab Cove Carnival from RASA Studios, instead!

Skin packs coming this month

Whether you want to play the part of the princess or the frog, do it with the new skin packs landing this month! FROG by Pickaxe Studios lets you dress like your favorite amphibians; whereas Planet Teens transforms you into your favorite zodiac sign! I think I’m going to spend the month dressed as a frog. Or a bull? Like any air sign, I can’t decide. Perhaps I’ll go for one of the cute, cottage-themed skins in Cottagecore 2 by DigiPort!

Even more adventures!

If all this talk of fairy tales has you raring to take on an epic quest, then why not face up to the prehistoric dinosaurs in Paleocraft by CompyCraft who may or may not have escaped their enclosures? SURVIVAL BUT has all the trials of Survival mode, plus four thousand new challenge combinations that’ll make your save file the trickiest one yet! In Immersion: New York by Shapescape you’ll get to explore the city that never sleeps as you hunt for hidden collectibles. Of course, if you want a bit of a calmer month (or an adventure with fewer teeth) then why not try opening your own coffee shop in Cafe Simulator by Waypoint Studios?
