1. Blow Up Something In TNT

The uses for TNT are limited in a proper survival game like Minecraft (and it is often hard to gather the resources in mass). However, in creative mode where you can spawn an unlimited number of TNT you can cause dramatic destruction to the game world, your own creations or better yet those of your friends.

15. Build Things From Real Life

Minecraft gives you all the tools to build and starting in the real world for inspiration is often the best place especially if you struggle to create new ideas or are just starting to play Minecraft.
From famous monuments like the Eiffel Tower (pictured) to everyday objects like your desk, car or favourite park Minecraft offers you the opportunity to recreate it one block at a time.

24. Create A Minecraft Adventure or Puzzle Map

If you haven't been introduced to the joys of adventure and puzzle maps in Minecraft yet then you are seriously missing out. These maps are designed by Minecraft fans and can offer a serious challenge that either focuses on adventure or puzzle aspects.
If you want something that is sure to take a long time commitment and really test your understanding of Minecraft mechanics then creating your own map is the perfect option. If you're able to create something really spectacular you might just be able to get a famous Minecraft YouTube channel to try out your map and have it watched and subsequently played millions of times.

30. Create Some 8 Bit Art

8 Bit Art is extremely popular in Minecraft thanks to how easy it is to recreate the 8 Bit feel with the blocks of Minecraft. While there are now countless tutorials online that walk you through the process of building all your favourites block by block it's much more fun to try and develop your own method.
Some 8 Bit art ideas include your favourite video game character, TV show character or even your favourite movie.

31. Create Something From Obsidian

34. Destroy A NPC Village
35. Destroy Something Of Yours (Or Someone Elses)
36. Dig Straight Down

39. Fight The Ender Dragon

The Ender Dragon was the first boss type monster to be introduced into Minecraft and still is an achievement that many Minecraft players are yet to achieve. While the fight itself can be pretty easy if you cheat to give yourself all the necessary equipment I encourage players to start a fresh survival game and try to take out the Ender Dragon as it feels much more rewarding (especially on hardcore mode).
If you've already killed the Ender Dragon then you can spice it up by challenging yourself to killing it within a number of days or even racing your friends to the first Ender Dragon kill on a server.

The introduction of note blocks into Minecraft was quite the unique addition that opened up a whole new world of possibilities in the form of creating music. With these simple note blocks and combining them with Redstone players have been able to recreate all their favourite songs in the Minecraft universe.
If you fancy yourself a Minecraft inventor Redstone expert and haven't attempted to create a song yet, you'll find it the perfect challenge to take your buildings skills to an entirely new and musical level.

If you've been playing Minecraft long enough you've probably built plenty of dirt houses in survival mode to get you through your first night and made plenty of extravagant houses on the other end of the spectrum in creative, but have you created your house from real life yet?
There is something about creating your real life house in Minecraft that adds that extra attention to detail as you try to get everything just right. For those that want to be a real perfectionist you can attempt to create a scale model and even include the major furniture items inside.
