What is the Craftmine April Fools Minecraft snapshot about?

This year, Mojang hilariously flipped the entire concept of Minecraft and called it Craftmine. With this April Fools snapshot update, the studio gave players the ability to create any kind of custom world they wanted. The developers called these custom worlds "Mines." Furthermore, they added various "Mine Ingredients" that can be used to customize the worlds that players create.

Once a gamer enters a custom world, the challenge is to get Mine Ingredients while surviving and finding a special structure called Mine Exit, from which players can exit the custom world and level up. After you've gotten out of a Mine, you can obtain it as an item and save it to a special location called Memory Lane. This is a long hallway with two rows of mysterious purple sculk shriekers that can each hold a custom world.

When exploring Mines, players will be required to level up — which can also be done after exiting a world — and unlock perks. Initially, their capabilities will be heavily limited since their inventory and crafting slots will be locked. Players will have to gradually unlock these perks from the Player Attribute section in the top-right corner of the inventory GUI.

Overall, in this April Fools snapshot update, Mojang gave the gamers a chance to craft their own Mines (worlds) — hence, the developers named it Craftmine.
