Plant two rival crop armies and find out if water really wins the war.
Two crop armies. One camps by the river, one in the dry lands. Only one can win the race to harvest.
- New skill Farming with hydrated farmland
- Level 2 · Rise of the Kingdom
- Difficulty Beginner
- Mode Survival
- Time 35–45 min
- Ages 13+
What you’ll build
Plant two identical crop plots: one camped beside water, one far away in the dry. Keep everything else the same and check both armies every 10 minutes. After half an hour of battle, declare which army wins and whether water really made the difference.
Finish line: Both crop armies have battled it out, and you've declared a winner with three battle checks to back it up.
Bonus challenge: Rematch! Put one army 2 blocks from water and one 4 blocks away. Does closer mean stronger, or is wet just wet?
You’ll need
- Seeds
- A hoe
- A water bucket
- Torches
- A timer
You choose
- Name of the water army
- Name of the desert army
- My bet on the winner, and why
Stuck?
- Farmland within 4 blocks of water turns darker and grows crops faster. Dry farmland stays lighter.
- Don't jump on farmland: it can turn back into dirt and knock out a soldier.
- Crops only grow while you're nearby, and sleeping skips growing time, so stay close and awake.
