'''Hour of Code: A Minecraft Tale of Two Villages''', also known as '''Hour of Code: Inclusion''', is a lesson in ''[[Minecraft:Minecraft Education]]''. The map tells the story of two warring tribes, who the player are tasked with uniting through the power of code.

== Summary ==
=== Castle ===
The player starts the game within the castle between the [[Minecraft:Villager]] and [[Minecraft:Illager]] Towns where a [[Minecraft:enchanting table]] book floats on the central pedestal, reading the following:
{{collapse|content=This is a tale of two villages: The Farming Villagers to the East and the Fishing Illagers to the West. Both towns had enough food and neither saw a reason to interact with their neighbor. This led to both towns fearing anyone or anything that was different.<br><br>And so the Villagers and Illagers continued on the same way they always had, even as the world changed around them, until eventually the changes in their world could not be ignored.<br><br>The Villagers could no longer seem to grow enough crops, and the Illagers found their fish supply dwindling. Neither town knew they were both too afraid to turn to their neighbor for help.<br><br>Today the Villagers and Illagers are still struggling with hard times. Perhaps, with your help, they can learn to value their differences and find a new way forward... together.}}
After interacting with the book, the Caretaker spawns in a corner of the castle, who offers to choose between MakeCode blocks or Python as a coding method. The Caretaker then tasks the player to move the [[Minecraft:agent]] on top of a [[Minecraft:block of gold]] in front of a [[Minecraft:grass block]]. As a gift, the Agent offers a [[Minecraft:sapling]] which the player has to code in order to claim it. The player is then tasked to place the sapling on the grass block. The Caretaker explains that with every task completed, the tree resulting from the sapling will grow larger, eventually covering the entire castle as a symbol of unity and prosperity. The Caretaker then asks the player to stick with the current coding language or switch to the other, before gates of both towns open. The player is given the Ender Communicator, which they can use to teleport between towns, and can choose to travel to the Villager Town or the Illager Town.

{{q|A Minecraft Tale of Two Villages. For centuries, the Villagers and Illagers shared the same space but seldom interacted with each other. Now you can use the power of code to bring the two villages together. Players will experience empathy and compassion for their neighbors, learn cooperation and inclusion, and embrace the diversity that makes us all uniquely special.|Description in the Library}}
