This chapter serves as a guide to the basic components of Survival mode, which you need to know when you’re just starting out. This chapter includes information on the Wooden, Looting, and Stone ages (or phases of the game), as well as details on how to use the furnace and where to store all your items. In Peaceful mode, you can skip the Looting Age, but you’ll still want to take advantage of discovering all the items and blocks available in the other ages to further their game.
