# Bloxd.io: many block games under one roof

Source: https://roam.new/bloxd-io/

Bloxd.io is a multiplayer voxel game made by an independent developer named Arthur, now run as the company Bloxd Ltd. It looks a lot like Minecraft but is built around quick modes you can jump into: parkour, survival, creative building, team battles and more. It is played on the web and as an app on iPhone.

## The main modes

- **Parkour**: Jump courses made of blocks, from easy runs to very hard ones. One of the most played parts of the game.
- **Survival**: Gather, craft and build in a shared world, the classic block-game loop.
- **Creative**: Build freely with unlimited blocks.
- **Bedwars and Sky Wars**: Team battle modes. Protect your bed or survive on floating islands.
- **OneBlock**: Start on a single block that keeps giving you new ones.
- **Social modes**: Hide and Seek, Murder Mystery and others for groups.

## How it feels to play

Bloxd.io loads into a lobby where you pick a mode. Each mode has its own server and rules, so you can go from a calm build to a fast Bedwars match in a minute. The block art is simple and bright, so it is easy to tell players, blocks and hazards apart in a busy match.

Progress depends on the mode. Parkour tracks how far you get, survival keeps your world and items, and battle modes are quick rounds. Many players stick to one mode they like and treat the rest as a change of pace. Friends can join the same server and move between modes together.


## Tips for new players

- **Start with parkour**: It teaches the movement, which every other mode uses.
- **Play Bedwars with a friend**: Team modes are much easier when someone guards the bed.
- **Read the mode rules**: Each mode changes what you can break and build.
