First of all, I would like to thank all of you who helped explain Minecraft to me before. We decided to go with the PC version. I let DS play it offline. He normally plays in Creative mode which allows him to build to his heart's content. However, it does not allow him to make things like his tools as there is no workbench (unless I am missing something). He is trying the Survival mode so he gets to make his own sticks, pickaxes, etc. But he struggles to survive the night as the monsters keep killing him. He is more focused at this point on crafting than making shelter. The monsters killing him is extremely emotional and is causing a lot of anxiety, so we are careful when he gets to play survival mode and for how long.
Is there a happy medium in some way which he has to keep his health, hunt his food, create his tools, yet not have the monsters constantly on his track?
