Let the Play Begin!!

Things You Should Know about MineCraft and Survival Craft

Both Minecraft and Survival Craft have 2 modes of Play:

Survival - You must gather resource blocks and fight mobs and monsters off.

Creative - You have limitless resource blocks and no mobs or monsters to fight.

Modes of Play

Movement in MinecraftIn Minecraft you use directional buttons to move around the landscape:

Jumping - Middle ButtonLeft - Left ButtonRight - Right ButtonForward - Top ButtonBackwards - Bottom Button

Flying is only in Creative Mode and you must hold down Jump and Forward to go up.

Movement in Survival Craft

In Survival Craft, you use a touchpad at the bottom left and right of the iPad screen to navigate and turn/ adjust the camera view.

Tap Bottom Left Side once to Jump

The touchpads can be configured with the traditional directional buttons similar to the ones in Minecraft.

Movement in Survival Craft

The sneak button located mid way up the right side of the iPad screen is great to keep you from falling off or into things.

In both Minecraft and Survival Craft you use the resources around you to craft items.

Your first step is to make a crafting table upon which you can “craft” your items and a furnace in which to smelt ore.

With these two items and the resources available the possibilities are endless.

Using Your resources to Craft Items

Minecraft you can group or collaborate in game with other players.

Survival Craft has a more diverse population of flora, fauna and other kinds of life.

Survival Craft overall textures and graphics are smoother.
