The Slice of Life Minecraft add-on has become my new obsession after I realised I just needed a break from the mines

Look, I love the grind of Minecraft as much as the next person. The first trip into the mines in a new world is just as exciting, no matter how many years you’ve been playing the game. But I can’t lie, as much as I love spending hours underground, sometimes I want to slow down and stop the race to find diamonds to appreciate a quiet life in the overworld. Luckily, the Slice of Life add-on from Starfish Studios lets you do just that, and it gives Minecraft that more traditionally cosy game feel for the ultimate wind-down.

This delightful add-on sticks a load of new content into the game, like new furniture items to make your base feel more homey, alongside new decor and even some plushies. You know, all the essential items that are missing from Minecraft. You can even unlock new pets, like the shiba inu and some incredibly chunky cats.
