Sweep a search zone at dawn, read mob traces, then play Who Was Here?
Something crept past your HQ last night. It left traces. By sunrise you'll know exactly what it was.
- New skill Tracking mobs by the traces they leave
- Level 5 · Mysteries & Monsters
- Difficulty Intermediate
- Mode Survival
- Time 40–60 min
- Ages 13+
What you’ll build
Rope off a search zone around your HQ and note what it looks like before dark. After a night inside, sweep it at sunrise like a real search team, reading craters, arrows, missing blocks and bare grass to work out which mobs visited. Then play Who Was Here? with a family member, taking turns to set and solve a scene.
Finish line: Every trace in your search zone has a suspect, and you've played at least one round of Who Was Here?
Bonus challenge: Set a scene with a red herring: one fake clue pointing at the wrong mob. Can your family spot the trick?
You’ll need
- Fence or wool to rope off a zone
- A bow and arrows
- A shovel
- A family member to play
You choose
- My crime-scene tape (wool or fence) colour
- Search zone: 20 × 20 or 30 × 30
- The trickiest trace I'll set for my family
Stuck?
- Dropped items and arrows vanish after a few minutes, so sweep the zone soon after sunrise.
- Sheep turn grass into dirt when they graze, and endermen carry blocks away, so compare with your before sketch.
- Lost track of which rows you've checked? Walk in straight lines and mark each one off on your grid.
