Our Marketplace Picks: October 2020

Published: November 13, 2020 - View official source

The content team has been busy scouring the Marketplace for their favorite maps released last month! This time around, our creative content critics Matthew “Moesh” Dryden, Oskar Thysell, and Andreas Thomasson have a lovely mix of culinary delights, fantastical creatures, and totems. Lots and lots of totems. 

Gross Food

by LIFEBOAT

I like a challenge as much as the next person, but not necessarily in the kitchen. I should probably branch out since my last dinner party ended with bouillabaisse-splattered walls and tear-stained cheeks. Thanks to this map, I can practice my skills on monsters before I invite Oskar and the gang over for dinner again!

Now that I know that the content team prefers more spiders in their eggs, I’m sure our next soiree will go much smoother. Craft unique recipes and make 24 different dishes using more than 50 ingredients. The map also includes 6 skins so that you can blend in with the crowd. 

ADVANCED DRAGONS 2

by Pixelbiester

If you don’t want to cook for a beast, can I interest you in taming one? This map gives you the opportunity to hatch your very own dragon, raise it as your own, and then set off on an epic adventure together! But don’t take my word for it, let’s check in with our local herpetologist Andreas. 

Exploration isn’t everything, Andreas! You can also customize and play with more than 20 types of dragons with their own abilities, opening up for thousands of variations! Is there such a thing as too many reptiles? Only time will tell. 

Totems

by The Misfit Society

The third map in our round-up doesn’t feature monsters preparing to eat or dragons coming of age. Your only task is to put a shattered world back together again. Sounds easy enough. Let me just, wait, OK. Well. Who could have guessed an ancient totem would be so fragile. Moesh, can I get some help here?

Thank you, Moesh! Your dedication to cleaning up my mess inspires me. This survival minigame includes over a thousand totems to rebuild, so stop daydreaming to the original soundtrack and get to work! 

Now all you have to do is decide you want to start by donning your chef’s hat, rounding up some dragons, or deciphering ancient blueprints. Find all of these maps and more in the Minecraft Marketplace!
