Desert Blacksmiths and Desert Temples

A Desert biome filled with Desert Temples and Desert Villages is the perfect place to start a new survival world. Two of the three villages listed contain a Blacksmith’s home, so you will be able to obtain stronger tools very quickly. Make sure to visit the Savanna biome around the Desert and dig up some dirt blocks before entering any of the Desert Temples. You can use the dirt to build a staircase down to the Temple’s treasure room so that you don’t accidentally set off the TNT trap hidden beneath the room.

Jungle Temples can be a difficult structure to find, especially in the earlier versions of Minecraft. This world gives you easy access to two Jungle Temples by spawning you near the Jungle they spawn in. In addition to the temples, players will also find two Plains Villages and a Savanna Village on the outskirts of the jungle. Use their resources to dodge the temples’ traps and discover their hidden treasures.

If you’re looking to get straight into the mining portion of Minecraft, this is the 1.12 seed for you! Players spawn in a small village with a Blacksmith on top of an underground tunnel. While the tunnel does not go deep beneath the surface, it’s the perfect place to start a mine. In addition to the tunnel, a Windswept Hills biome is a short walk away. It serves as a great place to gather common ores from coal to iron.

You’ll see this small Plains Village as soon as you enter this world. While it only has a single Blacksmith, their home contains three diamonds, iron boots, an iron sword, and an iron pickaxe! The three diamonds can be used to craft a diamond pickaxe for mining obsidian. If you can find three iron ore on the nearby hill, you can craft a bucket, fill it with water, and turn the lava pool by the village into a Nether Portal.

In Minecraft 1.12, houses act similarly to the Woodland Mansions of more modern Minecraft versions when placed over water. Their cobblestone bases form long pillars that extend into the bottom of the ocean they’re floating on. It allows you to add basements to each house, which is handy for creating hidden rooms to keep rare resources safe.

Jungle Temple island

Most Minecraft Jungles have maybe one or two Jungle Temples in them. This island at Spawn is an anomaly because it is home to six total temples, three on its eastern side and three on its western half. This means you’ll have around 12 treasure chests to loot right at the start of your world! Those wanting a village can head to the island’s northern tip. You’ll find one village on an island to the east and three more villages floating in the ocean to the north.

This seed is ideal for a basic survival world because of the three structures around Spawn. To start, you’ll have access to two separate villages, one of which is home to a Blacksmith. You will also be close to a Pillager Outpost between the villages that can be used for farming experience. If you’d like your base to be further away from the Pillagers, there is a third Plains Village further to the north.

This village makes its living through fishing since it is located on the edge of a Cold Ocean. It looks ordinary at first glance; however, after looking around, you’ll find a Cold Ocean Ruin between several homes. Loot its chest to get a fishing rod with the Unbreaking I enchantment. Since the ruin is part of a cluster, you can dive into the water next to it to find a few more.
