The Ultimate Player’s Guide to Minecraft is, obviously, a guidebook for Minecraft. Included are descriptions of mobs, blocks, and items, as well as guides for surviving your first night, fighting off monsters, searching for ore, and more. This is all handy basic information for any new Minecraft player. There are some handy Redstone guides in the book, as well as an in-depth guide to making an automated farm, however anyone of an intermediate or advanced playing level with Minecraft won’t find much new information here. I could definitely see this guide being helpful for younger players, or new players who prefer their guides in physical form. However, all of the information in this book can be found for free on the Minecraft Wiki, so I can’t imagine most players would want to pay $20 for a guide when they can get the same information for free.
A major disadvantage of the physical format is that Minecraft is frequently updating, and this guide was written before 1.7 was released, so it’s already becoming out of date. Most of the sections in this book cover basic things, like making potions, going to the nether, how Redstone works, which are unlikely to be drastically modified, however who knows what Mojang will add or change in the future.
A few things really bothered me about this book. For starters, the Creeper on the cover is a bit unsettling. I understand that Mojang’s textures are copyright protected, however I’m sure a better compromise could have been found than what appears on the cover of this book. Also, there were numerous errors throughout the book that don’t make sense for someone who claims to have been interested in Minecraft as long as the author.
