Craft Helper

Craft Helper is an unofficial Minecraft assistant that helps you find information without having to browse or search for it. Simply ask it your question based on the examples below and it will do it’s best to find that information for you. If there is any information missing or should be added please let us know. We are constantly adding synonyms for crafting items.

 

Here are a some examples of commands you can say (start with “Alexa, ask craft helper…”):

 

Build

“… build end portal”

“… how do I build a snowman”

“… how do I build an iron golem”

“… how do I build nether portal”

 

Breed

“… breed horses”

“… how do you breed pigs”

“… how do I breed a cow”

“… how to breed two sheep”

 

Craft

“… craft bed”

“… how do you craft a diamond sword”

“… how do I craft cookies”

“… how to craft a furnace”

 

Random

“… random”

“… tell me a random recipe”

“… what is a random recipe”

“… give me a random recipe”

 

Smelt

“… smelt oak wood”

“… what happens when I smelt iron ingot”

“… what does smelting cactus produce”

“… how do I smelt iron ore”

 

Tame

“… tame ocelot”

“… how do you tame horses”

“… how do I tame a parrot”

“… how to tame wolves”
