With over 3.3 million players online at the time of writing (according to PlayerCounter), it’s no wonder Minecraft is one of the most popular games of all time. (Did you know the Minecraft China Edition has been downloaded 500 million times?)
As a game of endless possibilities, it expands to limitless potential for hilarious and spicy memes. The Minecraft community has been creating great memes for years, from clean to dirty, simple to super creative, and even around the delayed Minecraft movie itself: Minecraft fans are celebrating the movie adaptation’s non-release with memes.
Turns out the real Minecraft movie was the friends we made all along

After hours and hours of play, there is always something players can relate to; perfectly displayed as a meme. As a gamer myself, I’ve come across many memes and have compiled my favorite and funniest Minecraft memes found on Reddit for your viewing pleasure!

We have all been there; endless months of play, thinking about your blocky world day and night and wanting to continue the adventure. You complete the task you set for yourself; a gargantuan achievement. And then… you’re bored. You can leave the game for a while, but sooner or later the urge to play comes back.
2. Creeper Panik Minecraft Meme

Maybe you are underground and find a mineshaft or a final dungeon; maybe you are far from your home base and you discover a new biome or an amazing new structure and you desperately want to settle there. But wait! The sun is setting, the sweat on your forehead is getting worse and worse, and you hear that familiar whistle. You frantically slam a bed to save your spot and BOOM. So much for that, huh?
3. Faster Than Light Minecraft Meme

With parkour maps being popular and potions that improve your speed being craftable, you’d think nothing and/or no one could keep up with you. The baby zombie laughs at you; this mischievous little ankle biter….
4. Stonks Minecraft Meme

*sounds of villagers* STONKS *sounds of villagers*.
5. Loki Mining Minecraft Meme

Pain. Nothing is worse than mining for centuries and having nothing but Cobblestone and Dirt to show for. There’s a chance you’ll find a diamond just behind the next block… right?
6. Minecraft Meme Leather Armor

There isn’t much that scares me. But this thing? Those who make leather armor first? They scare me. Why would you want to do that?!
7. Pollution Minecraft Meme

Once upon a time, everything was so beautiful and natural and we could have preserved it. Are we… are we the bad guys? Don’t think about it too much….
8. Take Inventory Minecraft Meme

There are some things in this world that are not meant to be known. How 16.2% of players did not open their inventory while playing Minecraft is one of them.
9. Bow Decisions Minecraft Meme

Of all the things to limit in Minecraft, having to choose between OP enchantments is cruel. Why?! How am I supposed to choose? !
10. Elytra Fail Minecraft Meme
A problem for those of us with outdated hardware, that split second freeze while chunks of the world update can be a life or death situation. We just wanna get high, man! *cries in old laptop noises*
