Map Info

Tate Worlds are exciting Minecraft maps that present virtual environments inspired by artworks from the Tate gallery’s collection.

Players can explore a range of paintings and sculpture, undertaking various activities and challenges that relate to the themes or stories behind the artworks.

Tate has teamed up with some of Minecraft's best known mapmakers to create these virtual artworks, offering a unique combination of art, history and adventure.

Tate Worlds: The Pool of London

Explore London along the Thames as Fauvist painter André Derain did in 1906. Taking inspiration from Derain’s painting of The Pool of London, a section of the river Thames where ships unloaded cargo and goods were traded, discover historical landmarks in a brightly coloured world, like the painting itself.

Starting at London Bridge, visit historic sites such as The Tower of London; climb The Queen’s Pipe chimney at St Katherine’s Dock; and descend into the forgotten river Neckinger that runs beneath the city whilst you search for the pigments Monsieur Derain used in his paintings.

Additional Info

Tate Worlds is a collaboration between Tate galleries, London and The Common People: Adam Clarke, Lead Artist and Producer, with Map maker: Dragnoz and Minecraft builders: Kupo, Featherblade and Tewkesape.

I walked up to the tate right at the start and saw the title, then I am completely stuck. I can't move and the game won't progress. I re-logged and was able to choose between beginner or advanced difficulties, but it won't go any further again and every time I try and do anything it says "trigger select is not enabled". It looks like an interesting map from the description and comments, just a shame I can't play it!

This is a year late, but to anyone else experiencing this issue, use 1.8.1 ONLY. 1.8.9 does NOT work.

-1 Kairo Wolf I thought this was a very cool map and really enjoyed it as a nice relaxed map of art and history :)
Other than not getting a timer when it said I should be, I didn't have any problems with the map.

Did a playthrough of it and can't wait to do so for the rest of Tate Worlds' Maps :)

-1 DaxtotheMax479 This was a very good map, very well put together, however I think I accidentally skipped part of it because I got 3 of the colors and it let me get the last one for some reason so I kind of broke it but still a very good map, very colorful

-10 nt9w0 honestly, this is by far the worst map i have ever played.there was really A LOT of effort to make this,with...i guess the command blocks and whatever else you have made,cos this is definitely not vanilla minecraft,but the gameplay is terrible, and generally the map is BORING,while it has a ton of bugs and it is often not clear what u must do next.i think this is supposed to be philosophical and artwork stuff,but...srs ly.......the builds are so simple and the blocks are just awkwardly modified to make the map colorful(and thats new to many players so they like it).of course you arent given any choice you just follow andre merain or how he's called.another thing..''tate'' is not an actual word...i dont know how u came up with this...at first it seemed kinda interesting u know the london and u take a walk to see the sights but...in this map state,i dont see anything interesting.

I can't trade the Cobalt Blue because the Quest-NPC wants to trade with the Yellow Ocre and some other things like normal villagers do.


the same thing happened to me i am unable to get the cobalt blue from the sewers cause the pirates boss is not spawning in the treasure room and restarting the map didnt fix it for me. I had to stop my playthrough on my channel

+4 Skittz I'm getting many bugs. Like for example, When I pressed the lever for the potion, nothing happened. When I checked the command blocks, they were blank. This hadn't happened when I played last.
OK map.

I'm stuck in the hospital. I got a rat knockback stick then it said door opened but then I said I found Burnt Sienna, which I already found before. Now the double doors are closed and I can't progress! Help!


I was stuck there as well.
If you haven't found out yet, you have to go back from where you came. I got teleported that way.

+6 Skittz I'm not getting teleported to the hospital and had to play it all over again. Then the items didn't appear in any of the rooms :(
No offence, but my playing experience was TERRIBLE. I saw some let's play though, and I think it was pretty clever :)
Also, the builds were awesome :)

+1 MinecraftGirl I played this map in about 2 hours of sporadic playing time. It was one of my all time favorites! Only bug is that every about 30 seconds after you find burnt sienna, it keeps saying burnt sienna found. But I love the ending too. Also, cool way to teach art history!

+2 Angela First map I have ever played, the art work is amazing, I loved it except for the fact, I made it to the hospital 6 times got stuck there each time, had to delete and re-install, what am I missing? One time I got the Dr. appointment, rat knock back stick, bow, arrow, and bones. Never saw the Dr. though. Other times I did not come across those items. I even made a potion to keep from burning after I found burnt sienna but I still got scorched. I would hate for my first experience to be with maps to be un successful.

+3 DaxtotheMax479 I love the map, but I came across one flaw and that was when you die, you go back to the beginning and are forced to be a spectator, I couldn't get back so I had to re-download it

+4 BiuerBoris Really great map! It was SO nice to play!
It just worked smoothly and almost without bugs.

(Spoilers)
But I feel, I need to mention the bugs (minor) - This map deserves to be bug free.

*In book 3 - page 2 is a clearly mistake. You can see the code for the book.

*If you fall in the water, where you search for bones, you will get teleported on the other side of the canal.

*When the bone-quest is done, the old André should be removed, since I did not realise the doors opened and went back to an NPC that did nothing.

Thank you for making this map! It was awesome to play! Though the hospital was a bit creepy.
