How to build it
- Get the blocks from the list above.
- Pick a flat spot that is at least 13 by 13 blocks.
- Press Start building. The guide shows one layer at a time. Put blocks on the yellow squares and press I placed them.
- After each layer you get a little party. After the last one, you get a badge in My builds.
Good to know
- The ball is hollow, so you can build a secret room inside.
- Build it in the sky in Creative, or on a pillar you remove at the end.
