Tnt
Reasoning & candidate comparison Contains the answer
Use attribute feedback to eliminate close Minecraft candidates
- This is a worked elimination using the recorded profile of TNT, not a transcript of guesses made in the game. Start with the 300-entry roster.
- Use tool = any_tool: 300 candidates become 73.
- Use hardness = 0: 73 candidates become 54.
- Use full block = Yes: 54 candidates become 3 (Block of Resin, Slime Block, TNT).
- Use initial release = pre-alpha: 3 candidates become 1 (TNT).
- These constraints isolate TNT. Use the remaining identity only after the attributes have been checked.
| Candidate / approach | Assessment | Why |
|---|---|---|
| TNT | Recorded answer | tool any_tool; hardness 0; blast resistance 0; full block Yes; renewable Yes; luminous No; initial release pre-alpha |
| Block of Resin | Ruled out by these attributes | initial release is 1.21.4, not pre-alpha |
| Sapling | Ruled out by these attributes | full block is No, not Yes |
| Flower | Ruled out by these attributes | full block is No, not Yes |
What this does and does not establish
- The comparison uses the saved official roster. Later game balance or catalog changes can change the attributes.

Clay Ball
Reasoning & candidate comparison Contains the answer
Use attribute feedback to eliminate close Minecraft candidates
- This is a worked elimination using the recorded profile of Clay Ball, not a transcript of guesses made in the game. Start with the 200-entry roster.
- Use stackable = 64: 200 candidates become 135.
- Use rarity = common: 135 candidates become 122.
- Use renewable = Yes: 122 candidates become 111.
- Use recipe = none: 111 candidates become 50.
- Use loot = container: 50 candidates become 8.
- Use inventory categories = ingredients: 8 candidates become 4 (Trial Key, Amethyst Shard, Honeycomb, Clay Ball).
- Use initial release = Alpha 1.0.11: 4 candidates become 1 (Clay Ball).
- These constraints isolate Clay Ball. Use the remaining identity only after the attributes have been checked.
| Candidate / approach | Assessment | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Clay Ball | Recorded answer | stackable 64; rarity common; renewable Yes; recipe none; loot container; inventory categories ingredients; initial release Alpha 1.0.11 |
| Trial Key | Ruled out by these attributes | initial release is 1.21, not Alpha 1.0.11 |
| Amethyst Shard | Ruled out by these attributes | initial release is 1.17, not Alpha 1.0.11 |
| Honeycomb | Ruled out by these attributes | initial release is 1.15, not Alpha 1.0.11 |

Dolphin
Reasoning & candidate comparison Contains the answer
Use attribute feedback to eliminate close Minecraft candidates
- This is a worked elimination using the recorded profile of Dolphin, not a transcript of guesses made in the game. Start with the 89-entry roster.
- Use behavior = Neutral, Passive: 89 candidates become 8.
- Use health = 10: 8 candidates become 2 (Dolphin, Fox).
- Use spawn = Biome: 2 candidates become 1 (Dolphin).
- These constraints isolate Dolphin. Use the remaining identity only after the attributes have been checked.
| Candidate / approach | Assessment | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Dolphin | Recorded answer | behavior Neutral, Passive; health 10; spawn Biome; classification Animal, Aquatic; height 0.6; initial release 1.13 |
| Cod | Ruled out by these attributes | behavior is Passive, not Neutral, Passive; health is 3, not 10; height is 0.3, not 0.6 |
| Pufferfish | Ruled out by these attributes | behavior is Neutral, not Neutral, Passive; health is 3, not 10; height is 0.7, not 0.6 |
| Salmon | Ruled out by these attributes | behavior is Passive, not Neutral, Passive; health is 3, not 10; height is 0.4, not 0.6 |

Breeze Rod, Diamond, End Stone, Waxed Copper Block, Birch Planks, Cobblestone, Light Blue Wool
Reasoning & candidate comparison Contains the answer
Find actual recipes from the seven available ingredients
- The seven names in this round are ingredients you may use, not seven finished target items: breeze rod, diamond, end stone, waxed copper block, birch planks, cobblestone, light blue wool. Crafting Bee asks which recipe outputs those ingredients can make.
- Compare each crafting-table recipe’s requirements with that set. Repeated use of an ingredient is allowed; ingredient tags are expanded to their actual allowed items. Smelting and other non-crafting-table recipes are excluded.
- The saved official recipe catalog yields 30 distinct craftable outputs: birch boat, birch button, birch door, birch pressure plate, birch slab, birch stairs, birch trapdoor, bowl, chest, cobblestone slab, cobblestone stairs, cobblestone wall, copper ingot, crafting table, diamond block, diamond boots, diamond chestplate, diamond helmet, diamond leggings, end stone bricks, furnace, jukebox, light blue bed, light blue carpet, light blue wool slab, light blue wool stairs, stick, waxed copper grate, waxed cut copper, wind charge. This is computed from the game’s recipe data rather than guessed from item names.
- Start with bowl: birch planks | empty | birch planks / empty | birch planks | empty. Keep the row shape; having the correct material without the right layout is insufficient.
- Then compare birch boat: birch planks | empty | birch planks / birch planks | birch planks | birch planks. The near-miss andesite fails because an ingredient is absent, not because it looks unfamiliar.
| Candidate / approach | Assessment | Why |
|---|---|---|
| bowl | Craftable from today’s seven ingredients | Place grid rows (slash separates rows; empty is blank): birch planks | empty | birch planks / empty | birch planks | empty. Output quantity: 4. |
| birch boat | Craftable from today’s seven ingredients | Place grid rows (slash separates rows; empty is blank): birch planks | empty | birch planks / birch planks | birch planks | birch planks. Output quantity: 1. |
| andesite | Not craftable from this ingredient set | The matching recipe additionally needs diorite. None of those options appears in today’s seven ingredients; visual similarity to an available ingredient does not substitute for the recipe. |
What this does and does not establish
- This recipe comparison uses the captured official catalog. It does not claim a timed playthrough or a score. Outputs are not recursively added as new ingredients; the calculation uses the original seven-item set, as the game’s discovery function does.
