Minecraft Mod Club: Our Top 5 Minigame Mods
Top 5 favourite Minecraft Minigames
Over the summer holidays, our Minecraft Mod Club mentors have been coding and playing some of Minecraft Minigames. We asked them to put together a list of of their Top 5 favourite Minecraft Minigames and what they loved about them:
Number 1 - Jelly Jump
Jelly Jump was one of our first Minecraft Minigames and our mentors still play it to this day. The aim of the game is to land on the jelly platform in order to make your way safely to the ground - you can even try to be brave and try to skip a few platforms in order to beat your friends to the bottom!
This game is great for modding as you can generate as many platforms as you want. You also have the ability to make each platform as big as you like, perfect for playing with a large group of friends!
Number 2 - Spleef
Spleef is a Minecraft classic! Anyone familiar with Minecraft will know that Spleef is a multiplayer game that involves shovelling the snow under your rival's feet in order to get them to fall through the floor. In our version of Spleef, the game is played over several levels and the very bottom level has lava!
See how many of your friends you can send to the fiery pit below, but be careful not to fall in yourself or it is game over! Mod this game by adjusting how many platforms you and your friends have to fall through or even make it a PvP battle and equip yourself with swords :D
Number 3 - Pig Fishing
Similar to 'Hook a Duck', this two-player Minecraft Minigame generates a big pool with two platforms for the players to stand on. Equipped with a fishing rod, the aim of the game is to hook as many pigs as you can before the timer runs out and place them within your basket. Whoever has the most pigs, wins!
Jaz and Calum had a great time with this game; they modded this game to be a dolphin filled blue swimming pool - very cute!
Number 4 - Glider
Just as the name suggests, in this game the player has to glide through a series of 10 rings using a pair of elytra wings.
This game can be played in a multitude of ways - you can try and get to the bottom without hitting any of the rings, or you can race your friends to the bottom and see who can make it there the fastest! If this game is a bit too tricky, you can always adjust the ring size within the code :)
Number 5 - Monster Arena
In this mod, the player is placed into a fighting arena where waves and waves of enemies will come and attack! If players can survive until Round 10 then will be awarded with a Netherite Sword for some serious hacking and slashing.
Play with other Minecraft friends and see how many waves you can endure together, or make it into a competition to see who can survive the longest in Monster Arena. This is code uses a lot of functions so it makes for fun practice on how to use these coding blocks in Minecraft Coding.
We hope you've enjoyed our Minecraft Minigame series this summer - let us know your favourites!
Until next time, happy building everyone :)
Who wrote this
We run coding clubs for children aged 6 to 16, so the guides here are written by the mentors who teach them rather than by a marketing team. Live online clubs are open to children anywhere in the UK, and our in-person clubs run across Essex, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Suffolk.
A live club is one hour a week, in a group of no more than six, with the same DBS-checked, STEM-certified mentor.
Children build their own games rather than working through a set course, starting in Scratch or MakeCode and moving to Python and TypeScript when they are ready. More than a third of our members are autistic or have ADHD, based on what parents tell us when they join.
Mentors write a note on every child after every session, which is how we know when somebody is ready to move up a level or would rather stay where they are. Levels move down as readily as up. Nothing is forced, and staying put is a perfectly good outcome.
In 2026 we were ranked second in the UK in Club Hub UK’s Top 100 Children’s Activity Providers, scored by five independent judges on safeguarding, inclusivity and community impact, and in 2025 we received the Autism Inclusion Award from the National Autistic Society. Over 1,000 children are enrolled.

The blog is in two halves. Guides are the evergreen explainers written by the mentors who teach the clubs, covering the questions parents actually ask: what comes after Scratch, how to support a coding-mad child when you cannot code yourself, and what works for autistic and ADHD children.
Club news is the other half, and it is where posts like this one live: game jams, Minecraft builds and weekly roundups, written up by whoever ran the session. Neither is marketing. If you want to know what an hour actually looks like before you book anything, club news is the more honest read of the two.
The first session is a free taster and we do not ask for card details. Book a free taster session, see what it costs, or read about support for neurodivergent children.
