Minecraft:Hour of Code: TimeCraft

Template:Exclusive Template:Infobox world Hour of Code: TimeCraft is a lesson in Minecraft:Minecraft Education and part of the Hour of Code series. In this map, the player has to fix various "time splits" that occured in the past and identify the Time Culprit behind them.

Summary

The player starts the lesson in a black void on a 9×9 quartz floor in front of the key art of the lesson. Pressing the button on the Minecraft:block of gold starts the lesson temporarily blinded. The player's vision clears, their blindness replaced with Minecraft:Invisibility in a space-like environment made of Minecraft:stained glass where Ephemera One, the spaceship of the Institute for Major Time Errors, assembles. They are teleported abroad with the effect expiring, undergoing a tutorial that leads them deeper inside the institute and into the Control Center. There, TARRA who runs the center tasks the player to fix the errors that happened in time itself after one of the five time agents (the "time culprit") tampered with historic events. They invite them to choose a time agent after choosing the programming language (blocks or Python). Afterward, five pods emerge from the floor, each housing its respectively colored agent: from left to right, Rascal in the red pillar, Yeti in the yellow one, Gremlin in the green one, Banshee in the blue one, and Pixie in the purple one. Interacting with any button will choose the time agent to fix the mishap, before the pods disappear beneath Minecraft:iron trapdoors. TARRA then provides the player with a TALK device for assistance and leads them to the Time Agent Testing Area where the player has to move their time agent three blocks forward.

Big Band Jazz

After finishing the task, the player can choose the first mission appearing on the time computer showing a kazoo. To travel to the time split, TARRA warns that the Time Pod only supports three travels. In order to access the Pod, the player has to press the brief button and then the start button to travel to the 1920s where a jazz musician's trumpet got swapped for a kazoo. To help him, they have to lead their time agent through a maze to retrieve the musician's trumpet. Afterward, TARRA scans the place and detects a button in the hallway. Pressing it reveals a secret room with artworks of two random time agents: the time culprit and a random innocent agent. The player can then use their TALK device to return to present day.

Other time splits

After fixing the Big Band Jazz time split, the player can use their TALK device to travel back to the center and choose any of the nine remaining time splits to fix, at the maximum of two. Any mission ends with a button that appears in a specific location, opening a secret room that houses two artworks of time agents, always including the time culprit. The following is the list of time splits on the timeline computer from left to right:

The Great Pyramids of Giza: The architect of the pyramids discovers that their cube-shaped tomb for King Khufu is at risk of collapsing and its shape must be changed to pyramid. The player can help them by making the time agent complete the pyramid design.
Moon Mission: The time agent must deliver the calculations to the astronauts to land safely on the Moon.
The Great Wall of China: The building of the Template:Wp gets interrupted after Minecraft:pandas ate away the Minecraft:scaffolding. The player has to code a solution to plant Minecraft:bamboo shoots for the pandas.
The Mona Lisa: After the time culprit destroyed the fountain, Template:Wp now bears a sad face. To cheer her up, the time agent must fix the fountain.
First Flights: The time culprit's disruption for the airplane runway caused the world to stick to hot air balloons unless the time agent fixes the holes.
First Computer Scientist: The time culprit's disruption for code caused the first computer to be unable to play a song, which the player has to fix.
Human's Best Friend: Because of the time culprit, human's best friend is a bear. The player can fix this by bringing a Minecraft:wolf to humans to befriend it.
Palaeontology Puzzle: The time culprit's theft for fossils caused the Template:Wp to have a short neck, which the player can fix by inserting Minecraft:bone blocks back.
Elements of Discovery: A scientist is missing some elements that the time culprit hid from them, forcing the player to find them in order to create a discovery.

Endings

After fixing three time splits (including Big Band Jazz), the player ends the lesson in various ways depending on whether they accused the right agent to be the time culprit. In all cases, they can replay the lesson with their TALK device.

Time Wizard

TARRA tasks the player of bringing their time agent to their pod. TARRA then lowers all the pods containing the agents except for the one with the time culprit. They discover that the culprit had "Villain Mode" on, turning it off to solve the issue, and the player is granted the "Time Wizard" rank.

Time Detective

TARRA brings all time agents to their pods, but they break out after the time culprit reveals themselves and leads all the agents to the time pod to escape. The player is granted the "Time Detective" rank.

Time Trainee

TARRA laments that timelines broke, before the time culprit shows up with the other four time agents. They declare history as worth taking over before all the agents vanish into purple particles. The player is granted the "Time Trainee" rank.
