Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue gives longtime Minecrafters, seasoned players and new-comers, and families of all ages their first chance to be heroes in the real-life, in-person Minecraft quest. Dallas is just the first stop; the touring experience will visit additional cities around the world, to be announced at a later date.

Minecraft is one of the most popular video games of all time with over 300 million copies sold, with players from around the world adventuring and creating together in their Minecraft worlds. Now, with Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue spawning in cities around the world, they can take part in an epic rescue mission and story-based experience where iconic places and creatures from the game are brought to life before their eyes.
Attendees begin their one-hour journey by entering the forest, where they will learn the ropes, give tips to other players, or just bask in the blocky nature. Moving into the village, they will receive their quest and embark on a rescue mission with a team of fellow Minecrafters. On this interactive scavenger hunt, adventurers will journey through multiple Minecraft biomes while building structures and interacting with iconic mobs – some more friendly than others. Minecrafters can gush over pandas and dolphins as well as face skeletons, spiders, and – of course – creepers.
To further immerse participates in the experience, each guest uses an Orb of Interaction that engages and interacts with the world around them. With haptic feedback and lighting, the orb vibrates and change color depending on the action and context to guide guests and further immerse them in the vibrant Minecraft experience. Once they complete their quest, they can kick back and celebrate their heroic feat at the Minecraft Experience Trading Post with a crafty memento from the adventure.
No prior knowledge of Minecraft is required to enjoy Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue. New players, creators, and longtime Minecrafters will experience the game in an entirely new and unforgettable way.
This October 18, Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue will spawn for a limited time into 2712 N Central Expressway in Plano, just North of I-635 adjacent to DART’s Parker Road station.
