Here are 5 interesting things about Pale Garden in Minecraft.


5 Interesting facts about the Pale Garden in Minecraft you should know

1) The Creaking is seemingly unkillable

The newest mob in the Pale Garden biome is the Creaking — a slim and creepy mob that will stare at you motionlessly when you are looking at it. The moment you turn around, they will take that opportunity to show you a whole world of hurt. Sounds strikingly similar to the Weeping Angels from Doctor Who, doesn't it?

As dangerous as the Creaking is, defeating it takes the experience to a whole new level. No weapons can directly hurt the Creaking, so you might as well toss away the diamond sword you made with so much effort. This mob is immune to damage from weapons and from natural elements such as lava. The only way you can get rid of the Creaking is by destroying its Creaking Heart.


2) The Creaking Heart hides an intriguing secret

The Creaking Heart might seem like a worthy trophy after you find it to destroy the Creaking. But if you choose to harvest the Creaking Heart with a Silk Touch Tool, you can uncover the sinister secret it hides.

Once you have a Creaking Heart in your inventory, harvest two pale oak blocks. Place one Pale Oak block on the ground and then place the Creaking heart on top of it. Finish off by placing the last pale oak block on top of the Heart like a sandwich. The moment you place the Pale Oak blocks in the same orientation with the Creaking Heart in between, it starts to glow.

The Creaking Heart is not just a heart but a spawn item as well. You can use the Creaking Heart with the Pale Oak setup to spawn a Creaking anywhere in your world. So, even if you harvest the heart of the Creaking, it isn't dead - it just transforms into an egg. It is essentially a living block.


3) Pale Moss isn't just some pretty element

Pale Moss is one of the latest vegetation introduced as part of the Pale Garden in Minecraft. It is a moss block generated exclusively in this biome, but it is more than just decoration hanging from the trees.

Pale Moss gives up to a 65% chance of upgrading the compost level by 1. Additionally, it can be used to create a Pale Moss Carpet, which can be used to rapidly spread Pale Moss in an area and become a great way to farm compost material. This unique block can be very useful if you manage to sneak past the Creaking and get some while exploring the Pale Garden in Minecraft.


4) Pale Garden is not just a simple biome

The Pale Garden in Minecraft is not as innocent as it sounds. It might be named after a garden but officially, the Pale Garden is a variant of the dark forest. It features trees of the same shape and size, with Pale Moss being the only definitive addition.

As such, you can expect a load of hostile mobs to be present in the Pale Garden. Visibility is greatly reduced in the Pale Garden owing to the inherent darkness of the biome, and it is recommended to use a torch or other distinct markers to make sure you do not get lost.

The Pale Garden in Minecraft also has an abundant supply of trees, which you can mine for resources or crafting. It is the only place where you can get your hands on the coveted Pale Oak Wood, one of the highlights of the upcoming update.


5) Listen to them, Children of the night

One of the defining features of the Pale Garden in Minecraft is the distinct and eerie silence. Unlike other forest biomes where you will find the sounds of wildlife, the Pale Garden biome is devoid of any sounds — save for the uncanny sound of the Creaking walking about the biome at night.

The darker tones and the silence make this biome a perfect place to explore if you are a fan of horror and eerie adventures. Make sure to stock up on torches before you set foot into this hauntingly beautiful biome.

This new biome is set to arrive as part of the upcoming Winter Drop this year. But if you wish to taste the darkness before it is already out, get your hands on the latest Minecraft snapshot 24w38a.
