✔️ 10 Tips for Maze Building (in Minecraft)

In this tutorial we cover 10 tips I've come across and thought about when making mazes! We don't cover basic techniques like uniform wall/hallway thickness, because that's more up to personal style.

I've spent so much time with mazes the last few days I wrote this video with my eyes closed (you can ask RedRuzicka she was there).

It's Minecraft, but epic mazes. The most hilarious Minecraft challenge ever! Minecraft maze building a HUGE confusing and crazy maze (super easy). It's completely vanilla. We're on the Creative Minecraft Server today. This was so fun, awesome, poggers and cool! I Love Minecraft fun.
The Funniest Minecraft Video Ever with No Funny Mods makes Minecraft 1.17 even cooler! Dramatic orchestra tutorial. There's orchestral soundtrack behind everything because I love the atmosphere.
Not Minecraft, But Water Rises or Minecraft, But Lava Rises, or any other but challenge like that. Not a speed run / speed runner of Minecraft against a killer / assassin but it is me playing the NEW FUNNIEST MINECRAFT CHALLENGE EVER!!! POG CHAMP!!!

I'm creating a massive maze (multi-story enclosed concrete) that's designed to be as unpleasant as possible for runners (one-way doors, unhelpful tips on signs, lack of light in some areas), so these tips are really going to help me ensure that my maze absolutely feels like a nightmare. No open spaces, little variation in hallway length, all nice things that will be absent. Trick corridors and moving walls, though, will be a must have.

Holly shit im doing the same thing Aka im doing a desert crypt maze that’s dark and well gloomy and I now want to work with you could I help you and you help me with my maze?

[@EISEL_]

i love dream-based spaces! liminal things, etc!

[@AlastorFan5900]

if you're okay with modding, create would be a must have for quieter, more seamless doors.

[@ThatOneGoatGuy]

@@AlastorFan5900 I built it on console, unfortunately.

[@raifegeozay687]

easier way to make a maze: 1-) find a mineshaft 2-) break all rails and woods 3-) change walls 4-) light up everywhere so mobs dont spawn 5-) add an enterance and an exit 6-) very complicated maze is finished.

I actually know a version of the left-hand trick that can solve mazes with loops. Basically, you walk straight in one direction until you hit a wall. Switch to the left-hand trick, but this time keep track of your turns. Your "counter" starts at 0. A turn right means add 1 to your counter, and a turn left means remove 1. Once your counter is back at 0, go back to walking straight in one direction (the same direction that you walked straight earlier) until you hit a wall. Alternate between walking straight and using the left-hand trick like this until you reach the end. Unfortunately there is no variation of this that can solve 3D mazes.

I’m making a Labyrinth, with a pretty cool thing in the middle. Once all players get to the middle, they have to run to the top of something (idk yet :P) and one will get the key to open a door. After that, they PVP for like 1-2 minutes before a door in the wall opens. When the player that has the key throws it in a hopper (not one, multiple hoppers, only one works. The ones that don’t will transfer the key to a dropper and drop the key. The hoppers will have built in delays for the key to get picked up by another player. I’ll switch which hopper it is each game.) they will get an advantage in the next layer of the labyrinth, this is going to take me a while, so hopefully it doesn’t die.. but thank you for this!

Im trying to make 100 mazes attatched to eachother and each maze hqs its own theme in minecraft and i am trying to give it a scary feel by building a giant dark warehouse building around the entire thing so you constantly know there is something unerving out the walls, yes its a horror maze but without jumpscares, just the feeling of unervingness and i might do a video of me testing it idk

Sounds crazy, let me know when you finish it!

"I can promise you, my entire channel is not maze's." Dissapointing. I was getting excited that the Minecraft-Maze-KZbinr-Niche would finally be filled. Halas, that day is not here. Not yet. Not now.

one of the best level design tutorials i've ever watched! Great job!

thanks! you know, i never thought of maze building as level design but actually that's a great idea maybe i need to look into that

I barely even play video games, especially MineCraft but this went recommended, so, unlike every time, I gave it a chance. You know what comes next. This is simply a collection of very good psychology tips I have missed due to being overworked with non-related (to these tricks) stuff.

[@salkree3207]

Very good tips. Thanks!

i've been wanting to make a maze lately and just started looking up videos on mazes in video games and realised that.. there's not a lot... but i'll definitely be referring to this video later on when the time comes!:)

Well you should always go ahead and learn command blocks. It can sometimes be grueling and sometimes fun! All those Minecraft maps you play has command blocks. I’ve only been learning command blocks for 2 months and I have fun

[@cameronharrington6813]

with all due respect, several of these "tips" are useless if you dont actually walk through how to do it. Specifically the piston door is insanely hard to do if you arent sure where to start the build so that the door area lines up

[@EISEL_]

that's fair! thankfully, there's lots of other tutorials on youtube to provide insight into how to do things (i referred to many myself). next time i'll try and include a few more resources in the description
