Build With It: Cobblestone!

Ah, cobblestone. As one of the most basic building blocks, it’s a true classic! It was likely the first block you ever obtained from mining, as well as an integral component in your earliest builds. After all, there’s nothing like a little cobblestone house to stake your claim in the world and say “This is MINE”.

Being an abundant resource, there’s a high probability you’ll be gathering a lot of cobblestone whenever you enter a new world. In fact, you might even end up with too much of it. But what do you build after you’ve finished your castle, its outer fortress walls, the dungeon underneath, the extensive courtyard, the winding staircases to a tower, a remote outpost, roads to connect them all together – and still have both energy and materials left?

A good idea is to draw inspiration from cobblestone creator maddog142, a community member who answered our recent Build With It request for cobblestone builds. Energized by the appearance of a naturally spawned jungle temple, maddog142 continued the inspirational jungle motif by constructing three additional Meso-American inspired builds from cobblestone – a small shrine/temple, a house/building, and a ball court (or “tlachtli”).
