Imagine this: you are having a good time exploring the world of Minecraft, but everything suddenly stops due to the sudden attack of a crowd of monsters. Zombies, endermen and creeps can easily ruin your game. To escape them, you can build a solid shelter in which you will be completely safe.

Steps

1. 1 Replace wooden doors with iron doors or blocks to keep out zombies.
2. 2 Place torches or other lighting fixtures throughout the house to keep monsters from appearing inside.
3. 3 Build walls around the house. To protect against spiders, erect walls 3 blocks high, one block away from the walls of the house itself.
4. 4 Make a moat around the house. This will make the monsters stay away.
5. 5 Advice: You can lure monsters into the moat by placing several signs / drops under the outer edge.
6. 6 Build a tower from which you can spot monsters in time.
7. 7 Build a bunker under the house, into which you can escape when attacking the house. Store there a supply of armor, weapons and food.
8. 8 The house should always have an emergency exit, preferably an underground one.
9. 9 If you have enough redstone, build a drawbridge over the moat.
10. 10 Advice: make sure the wires don't become a bridge over the moat for the monster.
11. 11 For more serious protection, you can build gateways that will help get rid of the endermen who teleported inside the house. .
12. 12 Always have one more base in stock.
13. 13 Always remember the golden rule of PVE (player versus monster). If you can't win, run! If your house is under attack, but you have only a wooden sword and an empty stomach - run away, recuperate and look for new equipment.

Tips

• Keep your sword, food and armor with you at all times. Some might call you paranoid, but that's safer.
• Take care of the second base, where there will be a supply of armor, weapons and food.
• Monsters cannot spawn on tiles. If you can't light up the whole house, make a slab floor.
• Do not leave doors open - monsters can easily get inside.

Warnings

• Don't get too carried away with protecting your home, all you really need is walls and a moat. The rest of the measures will help to repel attacks of only certain types of enemies.
