26.3 Snapshot 1

Word around the campfire is the new forest biome is out in testing! But if nobody's been to the dappled forest before, who built the abandoned camp? And what loot did they leave among the poplar trees and red shrubs? Scout out the place and set up shelter using the new wood set and other features from our next game drop. The expedition into wilderness starts now in testing!

Happy mining!
