Summary
Seattle Children's Minecraft Server is a private, Minecraft:Bedrock Edition minigames Minecraft:server based on the already established, Minecraft:featured server The Hive which includes many similar games and features and is exclusively accessible to patients in the hospital.
The Hub
When players first join, they are taken to a sectioned-off hub with a linear path in which they select a randomly generated Gamertag and pick a costume. After this, they gain full access to explore the map and are introduced to the "Game Selector", "Global Locker" and "Hub Cosmetics" items.
NPCs fill the medieval town with uniquely built houses and clocktowers, custom terrain and an explorative-feel to the hub.
Using the global locker and hub cosmetic items, players have access to costumes (custom Minecraft:skins), mounts (flying vehicles), pets, and hats.
Parkour
With the hub being so expansive, there are many parkour sections to play where players are timed on how fast they reach to the end. These courses range from going into the cave to jumping onto flying platforms.
Minigames
Using the game selector item or Minigame Browser NPC, players are able to teleport to different minigames.
Sky Battle
Sky Battle is a take on the classic SkyWars with "lucky ores," when each ore drops its own unique resources. By its nature, it's in free-for-all format with the final player alive being the winner. Before each game starts, players are able to vote on 6 random maps.
Hide and Seek
Hide and Seek is a 16-player based mode with two teams: the seeker and the hiders. Initially, 15 hiders are disguised as regular Minecraft Minecraft:blocks depending on each map. The seeker is released 30 seconds into the game and are equipped with an Minecraft:iron sword. If a hider is found, they respawn as a seeker. The game finishes when all hiders are found concluding in the seekers' victory or when the 5 minute timer finishes, concluding in the hiders' victory.
Just Build
Just Build is a take on Build Battle where players can create according to a theme in a bounding box.
Parkour
Not to be confused with the hub parkour, this minigame is a take on DeathRun where players have to reach the end while being chased by hunters.
Hospital Replica
Using Minigame Browser or by the Template:Cmd command, players are able to explore a replica of the hospital created by Henry C. Ou.
Survival World
Players can teleport to the same world in the same instance, similar to a Minecraft:realm, with operator status, allowing them to switch into Minecraft:creative mode. Changes in these worlds are permanent.
