Weaponized Atlas Robot

The Weaponized Atlas Robot is the latest and most advanced weapon technology in the Minecraftian universe. Basically it’s an enormous robot powered by redstone which can walk and shoot fire charges at the same time. It’s not easy to build but it’s definitely a great weapon to fight swarms of monsters or other intruders who you want demolished.

20 Piston Creations

This map includes 20 different redstone creations and all of them somehow make use of pistons. It’s a great showcase to demonstrate the great variety of things which you can build with redstone and especially piston blocks. Some of the examples include automated farms and clever hidden staircases.

Creator: Tronbot

Let’s have a look at a few of the different creations. Here’s an semi-automated cocoa beans farm. You will need to do the manual labor of using a lever but I suppose it’s not too much to ask, right?

Keep your stuff locked up and protected behind an iron door secured by a secret passcode.

Keep your most precious items in a secret room. To access the secret room you need to pull the lever.

Here’s some weird experience machine. Pull the lever to get tons of experience bottles thrown at you.

Smart Flying House

This redstone map features a nice little house which can fly. Basically it’s a machine which has been built next to the house and once started it will start pushing the house in one direction. Everything inside the house will be pushed, including blocks, entities and yourself. It’s a really clever way to move a house but also a great way of traveling.

Rock-Paper-Scissors

Rock-paper-scissors is a simple game which usually requires just two hands. But since your hands in Minecraft don’t offer the same flexibility as in real life some things, such as rock-paper-scissors gets impossible to play. But don’t worry! Here is a redstone solution which lets you play the game in Minecraft as well.

This map requires at least two players. It’s a very simple game mostly related to chance which I assume that most of you are familiar with but if you aren’t then go ahead and check out some guidelines here.

Use the buttons to select rock, paper or scissors.

The result will be displayed on the wall next to you. You can reset the game by pressing the glass button.

You can examine the redstone creation to get a better understand how it works. There are no explanations for it in-game but here’s a video detailing a similar structure.

Cute Songs (Noteblock)

This is a redstone map which features five different songs which each last for somewhere between 20 to 30 seconds. It’s a fun little showcase to see a few different possibilities of the type of music you can create in Minecraft just by using redstone. I think all of them are actually Indonesian songs but since I am not Indonesian I cannot say that with 100% certainty.

Press the button at each creation to start playing the song.

5 Activator Rails Uses

Figuring out the different uses for redstone is really fun. But some things are almost impossible to find out all by yourself so here today we share a map which will describe 5 unique uses for activator rails and minecarts. Some of the creations include an elevator, a Nether entrance and a clever mob grinder. If you know of other machines which use activator rails be sure to let us know in the comments!

Creator: JoshVs, Twitter Account

Elevator: Ride the minecart and press the button in the elevator to get to the next floor.

Nether Entrance: Have a seat on the minecart and press the button to go to the Nether.

Mining Area Lava Trap: Trick players to use the minecart to get down into a mine. The lava will drop over their heads whenever they enter the mine and by then it will be too late and they will be trapped in a an evident death trap. The trap can only be used on players. It will not work for mobs.

Secret Cart Entrance: To be honest, I don’t really know what the use of this redstone creation is, so if you find out be sure to let us know in the comments!

Mob Grinder: Make sure to set difficulty to max in order to allow the zombies to spawn in-game.

17×17 Piston House

This house features a bunch of different redstone creations (and they are not just piston mechanisms). Also, it is larger than it looks like on the outside since you’ll be able to access hidden basement and so on. As a whole it includes a good variety of redstone creations. Everything from automated food farms to a library which functions as an area for enchanting.

Creator: Arian, Twitter Account

There are not that many redstone creations in the house. Try to find the hidden staircase to access the hidden rooms in the basement to find some more advanced creations.

In one room you will find multiple farms in one. The farms are automated and will output the items in the chests.

One of my favorite creations is probably the most basic one and it is the fireplace. Drop a wood log in the fireplace to automatically ignite a fire.

On the second floor of the house you will find a bed for the night. But as I mentioned before, it’s mainly in the hidden basement where you will find the interesting parts, meaning the redstone creations.

The Transforming Room

This map features the ultimate redstone solution for building a hidden base. By the use of just one button you can switch the appearance for an entire room. There’s of course a much more complex redstone system involved in allowing this process to happen but it shouldn’t be too hard to rebuild in your own world since I’ve added a video tutorial in the bottom of the post.

Creator: Jhomes, Twitter Account

It is controlled by just one single button but if you want to learn how to build something similar then check out the video in the bottom of this post.

This is what the room will look like when you’ve spawned in the map.

Press the button on the gold block to start the transformation.

It will take somewhere between 10 to 20 seconds for the process to complete. But once it is done then the room will look completely different. This is really the perfect solution for hiding your base!

Here’s a nice video tutorial by YouTuber Mumbo Jumbo which describes in detail how to build something similar in-game.

5 Secret Entrances

This is a really useful map if you are looking for solutions for hiding certain parts of your base or creating some type of secret room. The map includes five different redstone creations. Examine the builds and try to replicate them in your own worlds. You might need to remove some of the blocks in the map in order to better understand the redstone structure though.

Make sure to read the signs in the lobby before looking at the redstone creations. The most important part is the following blocks as they will let you know how to enable the hidden entrance.

Secret Piston Entrance: Drop an item on the gold block and then wait for the entrance to open.

Hidden Waterfall Entrance: Press the button to gain access to the hidden room.

Enchanted Hidden Entrance: Drop an item on an enchantment table to open the entrance.

There are two more creations but those I will let you explore by yourself in-game!
