The next thing you'll need to do is bring your Blockhead into the world (a process called "warping").

== Blockhead Creation ==
You'll see a tiny part of the wold displayed on screen and the rest will be dark until your Blockhead has explored it. In the center of the known area is a blue [[portal]].

# Tap the portal to bring up the "WARP IN BLOCKHEAD" balloon.
# Choose the [[gender]] of your Blockhead by tapping either the "MALE" or "FEMALE" button.
# The game will offer a randomly selected gender appropriate name and look for your Blockhead. If you're satisfied or impatient to get on with actually playing skip the next step.
# If you'd like to customize your Blockhead, tap the "RANDOM" button until the look is satisfactory then change the name as desired.
# Tap the "WARP IN" button
Your Blockhead will appear and more of the immediate surroundings will be revealed.
Now that you've got a world and a blockhead to live in it, you'll need to take care of your Blockhead's basic needs.
== Basic Needs ==
Like you, your Blockhead has a fundamental need for warmth, shelter, and food. Satisfying those needs before nightfall is a good way to start. This is especially true if your Blockhead begins in a cold climate.
=== Warmth ===
=== Shelter ===
Later in the game your shelter can be as elaborate as you want. For now you'll want to direct your Blockhead to gather the necessary [[:Category:Resource|resources]] with which to build a shelter.
The easiest way to start is to dig out a cave. There is a [[spade]] among your Blockhead's [[Starting Equipment|starting equipment]] so digging a small shelter into a [[dirt]] hillside or just a hole down into the ground is quickly and easily accomplished. Just select the spade and then tap on the dirt blocks you wish to remove.
=== Food ===
Eating food fills up your [[Blockhead|Blockhead's]] [[Hunger Bar|hunger]] bar. If used when the hunger bar is full it will fill the [[energy]] bar instead. Remember, food is fuel and medicine.
Your Blockhead will begin the game with a small supply of [[:Category:Food|food]]. Your options for adding to your food supply depend on the available [[:Category:Creature|creatures]], [[:Category:Plant|plants]], [[Seasons|season]], and [[Veganism|dietary limitations]] of your Blockhead. Your Blockhead can kill creatures and or collect the fruits of trees and bushes when they are in season.
