Your first 10 minutes ​

New players get a guided start and a free starter house. The tutorial has three steps. Follow the floating arrows and the chevrons on the ground.

1. Teleport into the wild ​

You arrive at spawn. Walk into the RTP portal, right-click the Random Teleport NPC, or type /rtp. Your first trip always goes to the Overworld, because that's where your house gets built.

When you land, the server finds a flat, unclaimed spot nearby and builds a small starter house with chests, a furnace and a crafting table.

2. Claim your land ​

You get a golden shovel in your hotbar. Right-click the two glowing corners next to your house. Everything between them becomes yours: nobody else can build, break or open chests there.

If you don't claim it within 5 minutes, or you log off, it's claimed for you. Read Land claims to learn how claims work.

3. Set your home ​

Follow the arrows to your bed and type /sethome. After that, /home takes you back from anywhere. If you forget, the server sets it for you after 3 minutes.
