{Disarmed} With more than 3000 buildings, this Minecraft city rivals the projects to replicate Middle Earth or Westeros
The work of setting up colossal cities or terrains in ' Minecraft ' has already abounded since its release in 2009, when players realized that wandering their procedural worlds was just part of the fun . Then came the amateur architects who have replicated environments from different works of fiction, or have created, with very different sources of inspiration, their own constructions.
The Creative mode, which allows the player to fly, squeeze the game's engine to the full, and gives them the ability not to worry about the energy bars of Survival mode, is the place chosen by these players more interested in construction than in challenges resistance . They are the ones who have built scenarios such as Kingdoms Of Greymane, which took seven years to complete, the Night City of 'Cyberpunk 2077 ', fantasy worlds such as Westeros or Middle-earth (huge works that are still unfinished) or even their own planet Earth at 1: 1 scale .

The city has taken three months and more than a thousand hours to be planned and built. All the streets and interiors of the buildings have also been built and the great city is built around three great towers that protect all of the invaders .
