Minecraft Player Shares Incredibly Fast Mining Trick
An ingenious Minecraft player discovers a unique method for mining resources lightning-fast in the smash-hit open-world sandbox game.
Now, a Minecraft player called Bubbaflubba_ shared their ongoing recreation of the Las Vegas Strip, which was incredibly accurate. In the only picture shared by the fan, it’s possible to see most of the buildings that exist in the real-life version of the Las Vegas Strip, including the iconic Venetian Resort Hotel, one of the most well-known locations on the avenue. Despite already looking incredible, it’s clear that the area is not entirely finished yet, as some empty terrain can be seen at some points around the already developed buildings. The post became incredibly popular, and it received over 650 upvotes from the Minecraft community.
Las Vegas Strip Recreated in Minecraft
This is not the first time a Minecraft player has recreated an important location. Last year, for example, one gamer recreated New York City in Minecraft, building an incredibly detailed landscape with some of the most iconic buildings in Manhattan, including landmarks such as the Brooklyn Bridge.
Another fairly popular project in Minecraft communities is to recreate famous locations from games using the popular sandbox title. Earlier this week, one gamer shared an amazing recreation of the world of Elden Ring in Minecraft, including all the areas in the base game, but not the ones added in the expansion. While the world was still not entirely populated, according to the creator, they spent over 2,000 hours making this incredibly large area.
Last month, another gamer also built an incredible recreation of The Forest using Minecraft. In this project, the gamer remade the island where the horror game is set with incredible accuracy, depicting areas such as the river that runs through the place and the huge snowy mountain in the northern area, as well as the sinkhole. Hopefully, other creative fans will continue to come up with unique places or recreations of interesting real-life or fictional locations, sharing the best projects with the Minecraft community.

WHERE TO PLAY
Minecraft is a game made up of blocks, creatures, and community. You can survive the night or build a work of art – the choice is all yours. But if the thought of exploring a vast new world all on your own feels overwhelming, then fear not!
Minecraft has no set goal and can be played however you’d like! This is why it’s sometimes called a “sandbox game” – there are lots of things for you to do, and lots of ways that you can play. If you like being creative, then you can use the blocks to build things from your imagination. If you’re feeling brave, you can explore the world and face daring challenges. Blocks can be broken, crafted, placed to reshape the landscape, or used to build fantastical creations.
Creatures can be battled or befriended, depending on how you play. The world of Minecraft allows for epic adventures, quiet meditations, and everything in between. You can even share your creations with other players, or play in community worlds!
