Paper Minecraft
Build, Dig, or Simply Wander
Paper Minecraft is a 2D sandbox adventure created by Griffpatch in Scratch. Inspired by the original Minecraft formula, it reshapes block building and exploration into a side-view world while keeping familiar activities such as mining, crafting, farming, and constructing shelters. Since everything runs in a browser, you can jump into a world within seconds and begin creating or surviving at your own pace.
Choose How Your Story Begins
The first decision is not where to build but how to play.
Creative Mode removes resource limits, giving you instant access to blocks, tools, and decorative materials. It is an ideal place to experiment with building ideas, redesign landscapes, or create large structures without interruptions.
Survival Mode starts differently. Resources are limited, useful materials must be collected by hand, and the world gradually becomes more dangerous after sunset. Building a shelter, preparing food, and crafting better equipment naturally become part of each adventure.
Controls
A / D or Left / Right Arrow — Move

E — Open inventory or containers
F — Use or eat an item

A World That Changes With You
No two sessions develop in exactly the same way. One day may be spent digging beneath mountains in search of rare ores, while another focuses on expanding a small wooden cabin into a larger home. Some players enjoy collecting resources, while others spend hours arranging blocks into detailed buildings.
Because there is no fixed path to follow, every world reflects the choices made during play rather than a predetermined objective.
