MinecraftEdu: Minecraft Clue
The map is a recreation of the Clue board game. It's a mansion with hidden rooms. Working in teams, the students will solve the mystery.
I'm using this map and activity as a writing prompt. Following the rules of Clue, the students search the mansion, finding hidden objects. Once a hidden object is found, a team makes a suggestion. At that time, I freeze the students to work through the suggestion.
The characters are based on Minecraft monsters. Rather than murder weapons, the hidden objects are Minecraft items. The rooms are renamed but resemble rooms from Clue.
Depending on their deductive reasoning, the students could take an hour or more to complete the game.
Many, many thanks to the following folks. This would have been just a stupid mansion without their valuable help. Thanks, guys!
