Each of the Minecraft STEM Challenge books follows the same format, with explanations of basics behind building and how to create special or tricky shapes and objects, followed by a selection of themed builds.
A brand new player might be out of their depth at first, but anyone who can build a house and has had a few hours play should be able to take inspiration and hints from this book, increasing their skills and confidence until they're ready to take over the world.
We really like these books and my youngest has really enjoyed creating a theme park. It's given both of my boys a lot of pride and they've learnt new skills which they can use in other areas of the game. They've also learnt engineering skills that will last a lifetime.
Excellent value for any Minecraft player who wants to make great things and isn't sure exactly where to start or how to realise the ideas they have in their own head. You can find my original Minecraft STEM Challenge Book review here...
