Minecraft Bingo: a Speedrun on a 5×5 Card — Rules, All 73 Items and Tips

Minecraft bingo is a speedrun with no dragon to kill. You get a 5×5 card of 25 items and a fresh world, and you collect them as fast as you can. Five in a row is a line; all 25 is the full card. You play alone, any time, and the world is new every game.

On BeezzLand, a Russian-speaking survival server, bingo is a mode of its own with a record table and replays. Below are the rules, the full item list and tips for a faster card.

How to start

1. Join BeezzLand: address play.beezzland.com, Minecraft Java 1.21 to 26.3.
2. Type /bingo in chat.
3. You move to the bingo server, and in a couple of seconds a new world with a random seed is made for you. Your survival inventory stays behind and waits for you.
4. After the countdown the clock starts.

/bingo leave takes you back to survival at any time. The game ends then; a line you already have stays in the records.

Rules

• One hour. The bar at the top shows the time left.
• The card is a map in your off hand. It shows all 25 items and ticks off the ones you have. If you lose it, /bingo card opens the card in a window.
• An item counts the moment it is in your inventory: mined, crafted, looted from a chest or traded from a villager. The tick stays even if you drop the item or use it in a recipe later.
• A line is five ticked items in a row, a column or a diagonal. That is the first record.
• The full card is all 25 items. That is the main record.
• No Nether. Everything on the card comes from the Overworld. Difficulty is Normal, mobs as usual.
• Dying is allowed: you respawn in the same world at the start point. Your items drop where you died, as in normal play.

How the card is made

The pool has 73 items in three tiers. Each card gets:

• 10 easy items, the kind you find in the first minutes;
• 10 medium items that need iron, a trip or a bit of luck;
• 5 hard items: diamonds, rare mobs, long recipes. There is always exactly one in every row and every column, so no line is possible without a hard item.

This is the card of the current full-card record (42:24). Orange frames mark the hard items.

All items

Easy (26): bread, coal, charcoal, iron ingot, flint, stone axe, ladder, sugar, feather, bone, apple, wheat seeds, chest, furnace, torch, clay ball, glass, steak, cooked porkchop, cooked chicken, bowl, string, rotten flesh, copper ingot, any wool, any flower.

Medium (31): iron pickaxe, shield, bucket, milk bucket, compass, clock, book, bow, arrow, fishing rod, shears, gold ingot, redstone, lapis lazuli, pumpkin pie, mushroom stew, iron boots, crossbow, campfire, cooked cod, painting, item frame, hay bale, minecart, rail, piston, egg, brush, leather, bookshelf, spyglass.

Hard (16): diamond, obsidian, enchanting table, golden apple, jukebox, emerald, slimeball, ender pearl, gunpowder, spider eye, amethyst shard, TNT, cake, hopper, anvil, diamond pickaxe.

Tips for a faster card

The first five minutes. Wood, a crafting table, stone tools, and every easy item you pass: a flower, an apple from leaves, seeds from grass, wool, sugar cane. Look at the whole card first and pick the line you will go for.

A village is the best start. Bread, hay bales and loot chests are right there. Villagers trade emeralds, and a cleric sells ender pearls. If you can see a village from the start, go there.

Iron is half the card. Bucket, shears, compass, shield, rails, minecart, hopper, iron boots and the anvil all need iron. Find a cave or iron ore in the mountains early. The anvil takes 31 ingots, so it usually comes near the end.

The bucket unlocks the hard items. Water on lava in a cave gives obsidian (and so the enchanting table, once you have diamonds and a book). A milk bucket counts on its own and goes into the cake.

Night is mob time. Gunpowder from creepers, spider eyes, bones and arrows from skeletons, ender pearls from endermen. Do not hide indoors at night if the card has mob drops.

Plan the long recipes:

• Cake: 3 milk buckets, 2 sugar, an egg and 3 wheat.
• Jukebox: a diamond and 8 planks.
• Golden apple: an apple and 8 gold ingots.
• TNT: 5 gunpowder and 4 sand.
• Brush: a feather, a copper ingot and a stick.
• Spyglass: 2 copper ingots and an amethyst shard.

Amethyst and slimeballs are the luck items. Amethyst geodes are easiest to spot in big caves and cliffs. Slimes live in swamps and in rare slime chunks underground, and the wandering trader sells slimeballs.

Records

All games and records are on the bingo page (in Russian). The best times today:

The world is new every game, so experience and route matter more than a lucky seed.

Replays: checking that it was fair

Every game with a full card is kept with a replay. Open it on the records page to see the world map, the player's route, the time of every tick and where each item came from: mined, crafted, looted or traded.

You can also watch it in the game: on survival type /bingo replay <game number> (the number is on the replay page). The world is made again from the same seed, and the player, mobs and broken blocks repeat as they were, with speed and skip controls. In-game recordings are kept for 30 days.

The seed is hidden during the game and shown after it. The server runs anti-xray and an anti-cheat, so records cannot be set with x-ray.

FAQ

Can two people play together? Not yet: everyone has their own world and card. You can play at the same time as a friend and compare times.

What happens to my survival items? Nothing. You arrive at bingo with an empty inventory, and everything of yours waits on survival.

Is the world kept? No. It is deleted after the game; only the result, the route map and the replay stay. So every game is a new seed and a new card.

How often can I play? As often as you like. The best result goes into the records.
