Worst Minecraft Seeds Of All Time

Minecraft seeds are randomly generated, so it's a given that some will be worse than others. The worst seeds range from playable but extremely challenging to completely broken.

A few of these reminded me of Minecraft survival challenges, while others were just downright cruel when generating structures. For those who want a new challenge or just want to see an unbelievable world Spawn, check out the list to see the worst Minecraft seeds I could find.

These seeds will have you waking up on the wrong side of the bed in your next world.

The End is Not in Sight

Seed: 1744906206325538094

Version: Bedrock

Bedrock players have their fair share of bad luck in this seed. The nearest Stronghold is nearly 3,000 blocks away, leaving you fighting to try and make it to the End. To make matters worse, the End Portal will only have three Eyes of Ender in it. You'll need to craft nine on your own to complete the portal and travel to the End dimension.

Closest Stronghold: -2,478, -1,390
End Portal: -2,480, 0, -1,381

A Lonely Life

Seed: -4768099104855258569

Version: Java

Java players will have to live on their own in this world. There are no Villages for over 2,000 blocks, leaving you without friends or super easy resources. The closest structure is a Pillager Outpost about 1,200 blocks away. If you're looking for fast supplies and easy structures, steer clear of this seed.

Nearest Pillager Outpost: 1,232, 16
Nearest Village: 1,184, -2,080

Incomplete Collection

Seed: 8597561691077736535

Version: Java and Bedrock

Warm Ocean Ruins are needed to collect Sniffer Eggs, so not having any nearby is tough. This seed is particularly bad because the closest Warm Ocean is 5,000 blocks away. To get a chance of having Sniffer Eggs, you'll need to either walk or ride a horse 5,000 blocks, build a Nether highway system, or defeat the End Dragon for a pair of Elytra. Whatever you choose, you'll have to wait a long time to see these mobs.

Distant Stronghold Woes

Seed: 188488350380335515

Version: Java

If you want to go to the End, you'll need a Stronghold with an End Portal on hand. Unfortunately for Java players, the closest Stronghold in this seed is 2,200 blocks away. What's even worse is that the end portal within it only contains 2 Eyes of Ender. This means you'll need to craft 10 Eyes of Ender to complete the portal in addition to the eyes you would need to help find the Stronghold.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Nearest Stronghold: -2,240, 48

Where are the Cherries?

Seed: 4291600867002109548

Version: Bedrock and Java

If you're like me, the Cherry Grove became your favorite as soon as version 1.20 was released. Its beautiful pink trees, abundant bees, and unique petals made it an instant hit in many players' hearts. That makes this seed, which has only a few tiny Cherry Groves thousands of blocks away, even more disappointing.

Lifeless

Seed: 5661156250713507327

Version: Bedrock

Great Minecraft worlds have close structures with plenty of resources and unique world generation. Bad Minecraft worlds, like this one, have nothing of the sort. All of the structures in this seed are at least 300 blocks from spawn with the nearest village being over 1,500 blocks away. There isn't anything unique about the generation near spawn that makes this lack of structures worth it.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Nearest Village: -1,544, 200

Deadly Drop

Seed: -5654532838285755959

Version: Java and Bedrock

This seed is a nightmare for absent-minded players. It begins on the edge of a tall Windswept Savanna overlooking an ocean and a Mangrove Swamp. If you're not careful, you'll fall from the top of the cliff to the ground at the bottom. It's a seed that will knock Hardcore players out of the world as quickly as they hopped in.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Deadly Drop: Spawn

Frozen Alive

Seed: 64747579341785553

Version: Java and Bedrock

Unsuspecting players will drown in the Powdered Snow scatted around Spawn in this world. As soon as I entered this world, I found myself stuck in the snow banks with no way out. Walking forward only dropped me deeper into the snow. Players who have not dealt with Powdered Snow will likely meet their end before making it out.

Only in Legends

Seed: 2189899828197779151

Version: Bedrock

Ancient Cities are a great way to gather experience and relics from their past. They have been a much-enjoyed structure since their introduction to Minecraft. Unfortunately for Bedrock players, the closest Ancient City is over 2,000 blocks away! This makes them seem more like a figment of your imagination than an actual structure to explore.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Ancient City: -1,480, -1,416

No Mansions

Seed: -8739489262604261285

Version: Java

Those hoping to explore a Woodland Mansion shouldn't get their hopes up on this seed. The closest Mansion is over 3,600 blocks away, with the next closest more than twice that distance. That means that all of the glorious Mansion loot is unobtainable to you. If you ever hope to find one, you'll have to study up on Nether Highways.

Key Locations and Coordinates
Nearest Mansion: 416, -3,584
Second Closest Mansion: 4,552, 3,080
