Hypixel SkyBlock is a unique version of the original SkyBlock game.
Overview
SkyBlock is a game where players start on a tiny island with almost nothing and quickly start unlocking and collecting resources, expand their island, combat monsters, then create farms and explore all their options. As shown below, there are many different sections of SkyBlock and they each have their own unique form of progression. There is no right or wrong way to play SkyBlock, all the player has to do is simply have fun.
Collections
Throughout SkyBlock, many items have their own Collections. Each Collection has its own designated item and in it, it has multiple tiers. Some Collections have as little as 4 tiers and some range to 10+ tiers! Each tier has a set number of that item that the player needs to obtain in order to unlock. Rewards from Collections range from many things such as Skill XP, new recipes, trades, and much much more!

Minions
A Minion is a resource generator that is constantly active on the Private Island regardless of whether or not someone is on the island. To generate resources, Minions interact with the 5x5 area around them by placing and breaking blocks, or spawning and killing mobs.
By default, you can only place up to 5 Minions on your Private Island at once, but this limit can be increased by crafting additional Minions. In addition to generating resources, each Minion also gives Skill Experience. The level of a Minion determines its storage capacity and its speed, both of which can also be modified by Minion Upgrades. Each new island starts with a tier 1 Cobblestone Minion. Players can also interact with their Minions as shown below.
