Minecraft news » Realms Spotlight: Minecar Racing

 We talked last week about interesting minigames that people could come up with, and today's Realms spotlight touches on that very topic! McMakistein has come up with a pretty clever race car game, and it definitely stands out! Driving the cars is a bit unintuitive at first, but once you get a feel for how they handle, it's ridiculously fun.

Basically, you have two items in your toolbar once you get inside the car: an acceleration pedal, and a brake pedal. Holding down right-click with either item will cause it to do what it should - make the car accelerate, or stop - and steering is controlled by where the player is looking. It's pretty easy to run into the walls a lot at first, but once a driver gets a feel for it, you can do some pretty crazy racing tricks.

This minigame (and many others) can be played without any installations or headache over on Minecraft Realms! If you just want to have an easy-to-start server with your friends, its a great place to start!
