Guess the Block is a Minecraft take on Wordle. Each round shows one block texture cropped and zoomed in close, and you have six guesses to name it. Pick the mode that fits: Endless for a streak run where every miss zooms the texture out and unlocks a hint, Free Play to study textures without any pressure, or No Hints for the hard version with no zoom-out and no clues. Finish a round, start another, and see how far you can get.
If you have ever stared at the F3 debug screen trying to place a texture, this is the game for it. The answer pool is hand picked for blocks people actually recognize, from grass and cobblestone to ores, mineral blocks and the odd utility block like a loom or a stonecutter. Near-identical blocks (the three stone variants, every wood type, all the stripped logs) are left out so a tight crop is still a fair guess.
It is built for back-to-back rounds. Solve a block, press Next block and a fresh random texture loads instantly, so a quick game can turn into a long run chasing a personal best streak.
Switch modes any time from the row of chips above the board. Your choice is remembered for next visit, and changing it starts a fresh run so scores never mix.
Endless. The default mode. A wrong or failed block ends the run. Every miss zooms the texture out one step and hints unlock as you go, so the block gets easier the longer you take. Solve blocks back to back to grow your current streak, and your best streak is saved.
Free Play. No game over and no streak. The answer shows after every round, whether you got it or pressed Reveal answer, so it is the calm way to learn what each texture looks like. A simple solved-of-played tally keeps count.
No Hints. Endless on hard mode. The texture stays at full zoom and you get no category or letter clues, just the close-up tile and your six guesses. It tracks its own best streak, separate from Endless.
1. Read the crop. The first view is zoomed in close. Look at the colors, the pixel grid and any pattern edges to narrow down what block it could be.
2. Type a block name. The autocomplete only lists real Minecraft blocks. Pick one from the list or press Enter to submit. In Endless mode a wrong guess zooms the texture out by one step.
3. Use the hints. In Endless mode, two misses reveal the block category and four misses give the first letter and the letter count. No Hints and Free Play give no in-round clues.
4. Keep the run going. Solve it or run out of guesses, then press Next block for a fresh random texture. Copy your score any time to compare with friends.
You have six guesses per block. Fewer guesses is a better round. In Endless and No Hints, each block you solve extends your current streak and a loss resets it, while your best streak is kept; the two modes keep separate best streaks. Free Play has no streak and instead counts how many blocks you solved out of how many you played this session. The table below covers what unlocks in Endless mode; No Hints and Free Play skip the zoom-out and clue rows.
| After | What you get |
|---|---|
| Each wrong guess | The texture zooms out one step toward the full block. |
| Two wrong guesses | The block category is revealed (Ore, Stone, Wood and so on). |
| Four wrong guesses | The first letter and the letter count are revealed. |
| Win or six misses | The full texture and the block name are shown. |

Guess the Block is a Minecraft guessing game in the style of Wordle. You see one block texture zoomed in close, and you have six tries to name it. There are three modes to pick from, so you can chase a streak, learn textures at your own pace or play the no-clues hard version. When a round ends, start a fresh random one and keep playing.
Three. Endless is the default: a wrong or failed block ends the run, the texture zooms out and hints unlock as you miss, and you build a best streak. Free Play has no game over and no streak; the answer shows after every round, so it is the relaxed way to learn textures. No Hints is a harder Endless variant with no zoom-out and no category or letter clues, just the close-up tile, and it keeps its own separate best streak. Pick a mode from the row of chips above the board; your choice is remembered.
Start typing a block name in the box. An autocomplete list of real Minecraft blocks appears, so you can pick one or press Enter. Only valid block names count as a guess. A correct answer wins the round; six misses end it and reveal the answer. In Endless mode, two wrong guesses reveal the block category and four reveal its first letter and length. No Hints and Free Play give no in-round clues.
No. Every round draws a fresh random block from the curated pool, so you can play as many rounds in a row as you want. There is no lock and nothing to wait for. Solve a block, press Next block and a new one loads right away.
After a round, press Copy score. It copies a plain-text summary that shows the mode, how many guesses you used, a row of squares marking your win and either your streak or your solved-of-played tally, with no spoilers about which block it was. Paste it into Discord, a chat or social media to compare with friends.
In Endless and No Hints, each block you solve adds one to your current streak and a loss resets it to zero. Endless and No Hints each keep their own separate best streak, saved in your browser, so a hard-mode run never mixes with a normal one. Free Play has no streak at all; it just counts how many blocks you have solved out of how many you played this session.
Your selected mode and your best streak for each streak mode are stored locally in your browser using localStorage. Your session score, rounds played and current streak live in the page while you play. Nothing is sent to a server and there is no account to create. Clearing your browser data or playing in private mode resets your best streaks.
