Does Ice Melt in Minecraft? Unraveling the Frosty Mystery
Last updated
Have you ever wondered if ice melts in the frosty world of Minecraft? You’re not alone! This chilly question has puzzled many players as they embark on their blocky adventures.
Let’s dive into the cold details and find out if ice really does disappear when it gets a bit warm in Minecraft.
Yes, Ice Melts Under Certain Conditions
Indeed, ice in Minecraft will melt, but it’s all about location and light. Not every kind of light will do the trick, though. It’s the light from torches, lanterns, or the sun that brings the heat.
However, it’s not all ice that’s sensitive to a bit of warmth. Regular ice and packed ice have different rules. While regular ice melts near light sources, packed ice and its even colder cousin, blue ice, remain solid regardless of the lighting conditions. This makes them super handy for building frosty pathways or keeping your snowman from turning into a puddle.
