The 1.16+ Nether now provides you everything you need to survive... But the challenge might be hard... Your goal is to find a way out to the Overworld in classic vanilla survival game!
Main features
- New players are dropped in the nether.
- You only have a respawn kit (respawn anchor + 4 glowstone) and a quick fire resistance effect to start your adventure
- If you run out of respawns, you will be spread in a new random nether location.
- Click on [ reroll ] if the dropped location isn't correct (this will clear your inventory).
- You can't reach the overworld unless you craft your own nether portal ! (You will always spawn in the nether)
