Italian Island (80% Complete) for Minecraft

Review Italian Island (80% Complete)

Italian Island

Decided to download a map with a new island for Minecraft and anticipate how it can please you? In fact, on this map, a user has created a whole village in the Italian style, which can be used as you see fit.

Generally speaking, users rarely resort to the Italian style in Minecraft. They mainly prefer a modern or medieval style to create some large cities. In contrast, this time, you will find a whole island in the Italian style. Isn't that cool?

The designer has warned us that this location is 80% complete, so work is still underway. However, it has not been updated for about a year, so you have a great opportunity to refine this piece of land as you see fit. There is a lot to improve there, both on land and on water. By the way, the island is completely surrounded by water, and only ten percent thereof is occupied by structures for now — the rest is a free territory.

All the buildings, paths, and various types of structures have been made according to the designer's conception, and he has not only created the landscape from scratch making use of the Minecraft generator but also manually added each tree. It is really cool when a user does everything from scratch — as if writing an essay on a blank sheet.

Island's Structures and Their Interior and Exterior Design

As soon as you get to the island, you will see a kind of blue lagoon. Ships and small vessels are moored there, and there is access to the sea from different sides. You will also see several boats, apparently commercial, near the pier and a cafe or restaurant next to it.

The above restaurant has a large number of tables, different types of chairs, and umbrellas against the sunrays or rain of different colors. All this flavor immediately creates the feeling that you are in Italy, where people are constantly dancing, having fun, enjoying themselves in the evenings, and just taking a break from the everyday routine.

Next to the tables, there is a large building that looks like a hotel and a cafe rolled into one. However, many premises and rooms there are empty, so you will have to arrange various furniture yourself, for example, beds, chairs, cabinets, and tables. Indeed, when you enter such a room, its interior looks very scarce.

Each house has a large number of windows, which are, for the most part, decorated with flowers. By the way, there are a lot of flowers in pots on this map, as that is a salient feature of Italy. The designer has decided to convey this atmosphere and added plenty of flowers of different types. They all basically harmonize with each other and diversify the environment.

If we consider each house separately, we can say that all of them clearly differ from each other. There is not a single building that would fully copy the style of another. They are located next to each other along small streets and with height differences. All the buildings feature a unitary brickwork roof style.

You will easily find the church, as it is noticeable from any point of the map, wherever you are. It is one of the few structures, which interior the designer has worked out in detail, adding all the necessary elements: flowers, chapels, benches for parishioners, and a large number of lamps.

In the northern part of the island, at its highest point, you can find another structure in the form of a large pavilion. Some meetings or rituals are most likely also held there, as there are many bonfires installed, flags hung, and columns erected. This pavilion looks interesting and resembles one of the coolest places in Rio de Janeiro.

The streets of the town are very narrow, so two players will not be able to walk side by side there, and you will have to get used to this. Moreover, if you decide to ride some animal through the streets, you will fail simply because of the height differences, various paths, and steps.

There is even a small villa with a unique appearance and aesthetics. Like other structures, it has no interior at all, so you will have to think over and refine something there yourself. Still, it can boast a large swimming pool and different types of columns of a chestnut shade. In the Italian style, it looks unusual but very beautiful.

Island's Terrain and Territory

Even though the size of the island is not that large, for now, the Italian Island map is built up only by 10%. The rest of the territory is completely free. As we have already noted, the entire terrain has been made from scratch by the designer, who has made use of custom generation and completed the rest manually.

You will not find a single vanilla tree there, as in the standard version of Minecraft, since all of them have been created manually and could not be generated in such a form. Still, they look very nice.

The entire territory has height differences, so to build something there, you will have to get used to such a landscape. But you should not align it; otherwise, you will get just another flat world that will spoil the whole impression. On this map, it is best to adapt to the current landscape and build the structures' foundations taking into account the height differences.

One can describe this map for a long time, even given that there are not that many structures there. The island is small but quite enough to create beds and houses for thousands of players on it. It can already boast very beautiful harbors, a cool landscape, and a wide range of buildings. All of them are made in a basically unitary style but differ in terms of design. You will have to refine the interior of each house, as it is virtually absent everywhere. In this regard, it will be entirely up to you which style to choose. In general, we can say that the island has proved to be quite cool, even given that 20% of it has not yet been completed.
