Java Edition 25w14craftmine

25w14craftmine, supposedly the first and only snapshot for The Craftmine Update, is an April Fools' Day joke snapshot for Java Edition, released on April 1, 2025.[1] This snapshot is a fork of 1.21.5 Release Candidate 1.

25w14craftmine spawns the player next to a mine crafter. The mine crafter can craft "mines" using mine ingredients which change different properties of the mine. Entering a mine brings the player to a new dimension. The mine is won if the player successfully finds and uses a mine exit and the mine is lost if the player dies. Winning a mine grants the player experience points which can be used to purchase player unlocks that grant the player new powers. Every 5th mine is a special event mine that will grant a shimmering key if won. Shimmering keys can be used on shimmering doors in the Overworld to unlock new rooms.

Rooms are generated when a shimmering key is right-clicked in hand on a shimmering door.
