If you love Among Us and Minecraft, combining them into one creative project is a natural next step. Building an Among Us house in Minecraft has become a popular trend, allowing players to bring the iconic crewmate shape into their blocky worlds. This guide will walk you through everything you need to build your own, from gathering materials to adding the final touches.
Materials You Will Need
Before you start building, gather the right resources. The most important block for this build is wool, as it allows you to create the smooth, colorful look of an Among Us crewmate. Here is a basic list:
- White wool – for the base body
- Colored wool – choose your favorite crewmate color (red, blue, purple, etc.)
- Black wool – for the visor and outline details
- Quartz blocks – for windows and doors
- Glass panes
- Blackstone – for vents and accents
- Redstone torches, buttons, levers – for emergency buttons and switches
Having a variety of blocks will help you recreate the distinct visual style of the game.
Step-by-Step Building Guide
1. Choose Your Location
Pick a flat, spacious area to build. A clear, open space makes it easier to lay out the foundation and get the proportions right.
2. Draw a Layout
Plan the structure on paper or using a digital tool before building. Mapping out the shape helps ensure your house looks like a crewmate and is not lopsided.
3. Build the Outer Layer
Start with the body of the crewmate. Use white wool or your chosen color as a base to create the character’s iconic oval body shape. Build it tall enough to include multiple floors or rooms inside.
4. Create the Walls and Roof
Follow your layout to build the walls. For the roof, aim for a dome shape that mimics the curved top of a crewmate’s head. Wool is a great choice here for consistency.
5. Add the Visor and Details
Use black wool or glass to create the large visor on the front of the house. This is the most recognizable feature of an Among Us character. You can also add exterior vents using blackstone, maybe even with a little redstone for effect.
Interior Design Ideas
An empty house is just a shell. Make your Among Us house feel alive with interior details inspired by the game:
- Control Room: Add a map of your Minecraft world and buttons to mimic the game’s task system.
- Emergency Meeting Button: Create an emergency meeting button in a visible area using a redstone torch surrounded by wool.
- Furniture: Add tables, chairs, and carpets to make the space feel like a real base.
- Lighting: Proper lighting from torches or lanterns is essential for safety and atmosphere. Use glowstone for a bright, sci-fi feel.
Final Touches and Showcase
Add some outdoor decorations like amethyst crystals or jack-o-lanterns for ambiance. Once everything is built and detailed, take a screenshot and share your creation with friends. This is a fun project for any fan of both games.
