How to Read a Treasure Map in Minecraft
Last updated
Ever found yourself holding a treasure map in Minecraft and puzzled over where the X marks the spot? You’re not alone! Let’s explore how to become a treasure-hunting champion in the blocky world of Minecraft.
Wondering how to decipher that cryptic treasure map you stumbled upon in Minecraft? We’ve got you covered.
Find That X!
To read a treasure map in Minecraft, first, you need to understand the map’s basics. The map displays a top-down view of the surrounding land and water bodies. You’ll see a tiny white dot on the edges if you’re far from the treasure; this dot represents your current location in relation to the map.
The key is to move in a direction that makes the dot move towards the center of the map. As you get closer, the terrain on the map starts to fill in, and eventually, the dot will be on top of the X, signifying you’re right above the buried treasure. Start digging!
