Minecraft creators literally can't stop making new games and we're not about to stop them. At the end of March, we reported on the player who recreated Wordle in the game and today we're sharing with you someone who recreated the legendary Minesweeper with Redstone and an ungodly number of moving parts.



CraftyMasterman designed the map and then posted an Reddit post showing it off. The video doesn't reveal much aside from the scale of the device you'll be using to play it, but it looks incredible. Lava is used as a representation of the numbers. There's even a small handheld map that you can view as you play to recreate what's happening on the board. Let it sing



CraftyMasterman has an instructional video on how this build was created. This project was part of a massive Redstone build contest that provided a $10,000 USD prize pool for the most impressive Redstone creation.



When CraftyMasterman could not finish his work before the competition's judging, he decided to keep going after making a bet on his fame as a legend in redstone on the build. He spent the next two weeks working on it, going through several iterations before triumphantly presenting a working version to the competition's judges.



Even for a veteran Minecraft player, it is still quite complex. The builder must not only build the board, which is huge however, they must also display numbers, keep track of the number of TNT blocks within it, and randomize it in a way that makes the game exciting. It's not something that the average Minecraft player can do or have the patience for.



This is a great example of what Minecraft can do. You can download it here to play around in the world. You should always ensure safe downloading.
