Adventure mode is a game mode intended for adventuring in which the player cannot place or destroy blocks, so as to avoid spoiling adventure maps by changing the map. The player can still interact with blocks that can be toggled, such as doors, levers, and buttons. The player can also still deal damage to mobs and trade with villagers.
It is likely that one would import and use custom adventure maps to be played, as a new map would not have much purpose or customizability, and a custom map would control certain aspects of the gameplay as well.
In Adventure mode, the player cannot simply get resources by breaking items or by destroying or building blocks. The only way the player can get certain resources is by killing mobs, looting chests or trading with villagers. However, depending on what type of an adventure it may be, many of these features are unnecessary, or often unavailable by conventional means. It may also be a way to cheat on a map that restricts the acquisition of specific objects.
Although it is impossible to destroy blocks manually, it remains possible to use an explosion to get some resources. However, this may ruin the aspect of gameplay by acting as a way to cheat a map, as well as an annoyance from Creepers, and is controllable using the mobGriefing server command. Explosions can also damage a map, rendering it unplayable or ruined.
While it is possible to play a normal Minecraft game in Adventure mode, it is quite difficult to do so. Most time is spent collecting food to replenish the ever-dwindling food bar. It is possible to collect some trade goods such as wool, raw porkchops, and wheat (by jumping on the wheat found in villages), as well as finding chests in blacksmiths, dungeons, abandoned mineshafts, and strongholds. Wood can only be obtained by using a Creeper near log structures and trees.

History
| a | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ? | Adventure mode, formerly Dungeons and Levers, was announced by Notch on July 7, 2010.[2] Notch hinted at four players to compete in Adventure mode. Adventure mode may include permadeath like in Hardcore mode, making it rogue-like in nature,[3] and may have a quest system with randomly generated maps/quests.[4] | ||||
| r | |||||
| 12w22a | Added Adventure mode. Accessible through the cheats command, /gamemode <playername> 2 or /gamemode <playername> adventure. It is still possible to craft in Adventure mode both with the 2x2 crafting grid in the player's inventory and with the full sized 3x3 crafting table. The player can still interact with blocks with an interface, such as chests, dispensers, crafting tables, furnaces and brewing stands. The player can also go through portals, but cannot activate one by using flint & steel; flint & steel can be used to activate TNT. | ||||
| u | |||||
| 12w32a | Creeper explosions can now be controlled using the mobGriefing server command. | ||||
| 12w34a | Certain blocks can now be removed and placed again with correct tools.[5] | ||||
Bugs
- There is a bug where paintings and item frames can be broken (but not placed). This is because they are considered entities.
- Sometimes the player cannot equip armor from a chest if they have more than two items in their inventory.
