A Minecraft player and Reddit user named u/Main_Revolution8081 posted some images on the game's subreddit showing a bizarre block inside the base. It has a yellow and orange texture, similar to the brewing stand. However, the shape does not seem right, as it looks like a magma cube. The post started a conversation, with players commenting on what they think this mysterious item is.

User u/DangerousCompetition said that it appears to be a fat brewing stand. It might sound like a joke at first, but that could very well explain this block. Minecraft Bedrock Edition is known for its bugs. Due to a loading error, the brewing stand might get stretched and compressed like this.

Another user, u/Clean_More3508, said it's a block of blaze rod. It should be noted that blaze rods can only be placed vertically using a brewing stand.

User u/Iam_920 said the Bedrock Edition can get funky at large distances from the spawn point. They added that non-full blocks such as the brewing stand can get stretched since X and Z coordinates are highly pulled from both sides, making it a cube.

User u/56Bot said that float decimals start acting weird when the number gets too big. The original commenter gave a placeholder example to explain the math behind it.

Another user, u/dark_coder112, joked that it is the forbidden cheese block. The original poster said that someone told them it was a fat brewing stand so they placed it and it shows the same shape and texture. User u/56Bot replied that any non-full block will look the same, mentioning lanterns or torches as examples.

Minecraft Bedrock Edition is the most popular version of the blocky game and is available on smartphones, gaming consoles, and handheld devices. However, it is a mess filled with many bugs.

Players often encounter hilarious bugs in this game version. Some instances of mobs randomly floating in the air or animals inexplicably spinning in circles have been shared on the subreddit. Many gamers are often confused as to what is going on, an example being the Reddit post discussed in this article.

On the flip side, Minecraft Bedrock has its share of serious bugs that can hinder the gaming experience. Game-breaking issues like disappearing inventories, broken redstone mechanics, or unstable multiplayer servers can frustrate even the most patient players. One notable example is the infamous “chunk errors,” where parts of the world fail to load correctly, leaving players stuck or causing them to lose progress.


The developers at Mojang Studios consistently release patches to address these issues, but as new updates roll out, fresh bugs show up as well.
