Build a station, then see if a newcomer can catch the right train.
You know your station by heart. A stranger doesn't. Can your signs get them on the right train in time?
- New skill Building platforms, stairs and signs
- Level 3 · Dream City
- Difficulty Beginner
- Mode Creative
- Time 35–45 min
- Ages 13+
What you’ll build
Build a station on the City Express with platforms, stairs and signs of six words or fewer. Then give a newcomer a mission to catch the right train, stay silent while they try, note every pause and wrong turn, make your biggest fixes and test again.
Finish line: Your station works, and two timed tests show your upgrades made it easier to catch the right train.
Bonus challenge: Test with a second person who rarely plays Minecraft. Did they get lost in different places? Upgrade again!
You’ll need
- Platform blocks
- Stairs or slabs
- Signs
- A tester who hasn't seen it
- A timer
You choose
- My station's name
- Number of platforms and where each goes
- My best sign (6 words max)
Stuck?
- Tempted to help? Stay silent and write down every question or wrong turn instead.
- Tester paused somewhere? Put a sign exactly there. That's where they needed one.
- Signs too wordy? Cut to six words or fewer; arrows and colours do some of the work.
