The Blockheads [Free] is a 2D Minecraft inspired game where instead of needing to know recipes and being able to craft everything in one location, there are many different kinds of workbenches, each with a handful of items they can craft. The crafting interface lists what is required and describes what the crafted item can do. This creates a technology tree of sorts, easing the player into the game, and slowly making more advanced items available.
Night is falling and your blockhead is freezing. You haven't yet made shelter and your campfire has gone out. All you have is a spade, some wood and a few sticks. You have only minutes before exhaustion hits. Do you create a bed, dig a cave or refuel your fire? What will you do?
Control your blockheads in a vast randomly generated world with oceans, mountains, forests, deserts and deep underground caves. Keep an eye on their needs - give them sleep, feed them, create clothing and shelter - and they'll be happier, quicker and more productive. Craft tools with the resources they find, and they'll be able to work even faster and find more resources. Upgrade workbenches and unlock more advanced items to craft. Discover precious stones and metals deep underground, or rare plants and animals on the surface. Craft a boat and sail across the oceans. Make fur clothing and venture to the North Pole. Pick coconuts at a tropical beach. Cook meat at a campfire. Build a marble palace. Paint the walls. Plant an orchard. Ride a donkey!
Explore, mine, craft and build in this giant and detailed sandbox game for iOS. Navigate huge simulated worlds thousands of blocks wide with a full temperature and climate system, seasons, an equator, and frozen poles. Explore complex cave systems and flowing water, and survive deserts and snowy mountain tops.
Craft baskets
Baskets allow you to carry more stuff. Before you can craft baskets you need 1 dirt and 1 stick to create a craft bench from the workbench. Baskets can then be crafted using 5 sticks from the craft bench.
Infinite Inventory
Baskets and chests can contain baskets and chests, so you effectively have an infinite inventory.
However you can only see the contents of a basket when it is in one of the primary slots, and you can only see the contents of chests when they are placed in the world. You could move whatever is in that slot into another basket though.
Ride donkey
You can ride a donkey using the carrot on a stick item which can be crafted from a level 2 craft bench.
Grow Trees
You can plant any fruit or seed or pine cones in dirt and they'll slowly grow over time
Health
Health goes down for two reasons, either hunger or exhaustion from not sleeping. If you click on the picture of your guy at the top of the screen it will bring up a more detailed graph, with more individual bars and will tell you how your blockhead is feeling. You can restore health by sleeping and/or eating.
Breeding Donkeys
Carrot plants have a certain amount of food available that replenishes over time. Every time a donkey walks past, it takes some of this food, and if it gets plenty, eventually it has a baby. So short answer: lots of carrot plants = lots of donkeys

| Harvesting flax from the flax plants to make linen clothes. |
Making Clothes
Flax is needed to make linen and linen is needed to make clothes for your blockhead. You can harvest flax from the flax plant by hacking at it with a machete. In addition to 2 pieces of flax you also get one flax seed from each flax plant. If it's flowering you can get 3 seeds if you hack the flower off first You can repeat the process all over again by planting the flax seed in the dirt and waiting for the flax plant to grow (by meditating) before hacking at it again with a machete.
Meditation
When your blockhead finishes meditating, you can get random items like fruits, seeds, ingots, dyes and precious minerals like diamond and ruby.
Hat of Warm
The Hat of Warm can be found on the North Pole. The hat keeps you warm in cold weather.
Boots of Speed
The Boots of Speed can found on the South Pole. The boots make you run faster.
Sunrise Hat of Fullness
The Sunrise Hat of Fullness can be found on the East Equator. It completely fills the wearer and the bars only go down if it is removed.
