Rules; Do not:

- Use modifications which assist you in mapping, modify your inventory, or modify the game map.
- Stray from the game area. The map has been built primarily inside a box of 128 by 128 blocks. The boundaries of this box are marked by cobblestones floating one unit above the water level. Exploring the ocean floor beyond the boundary will not reveal special areas that award points.
- Play on peaceful mode or use peaceful mode in an emergency situation.

Do:

- Manage your resources carefully. Certain resources cannot be found naturally due to a lack of dry land. There are single replacement units of the following renewable resources hidden on the map, should you lose your original supply: saplings, cacti, and sugarcane.
- Explore beneath the ocean floor. Occasionally you will find a sign indicating a discovery of one of the secrets of Adrift! and earn points.
- Use the captain's log when indicated. The adventurer's log contains entries which may give clues to help you locate special features. Not every entry in the adventurer's log is legitimate, so only rely upon those which are referenced on the game map.
- Realize that sea level is not at the same position as as a normal Minecraft map. If you move to a position which forces generation of new chunks, it will look strange.
- Have fun.

[Entry 1]

I don't know how long I've been out, but now that I'm awake I wonder why I was spared when everyone else was taken. We were returning from an expedition to the King's newest colony on board the navy ship Golden Cutlass. I was sent to study the flora of this alien land and the captain to collect the spoils of the war.

For three weeks we were becalmed, a thousand miles from land if the navigator is to be believed. Supplies ran short and careful rationing began to take its toll on the crew. Then, two or three night ago--I cannot reckon the time exactly--an awful tempest swept across the broad sea, tossing our boat and swamping it nearly to sinking. Being the only civilian on the ship, I was confined to my room during the tumult. I was all to glad, as I was seasick so bad as to prefer death over the continued sway and sally of the cabin.

I do not know when the crew disappeared. There was a lifeboat on board. Perhaps they left, fearing the imminent break up of the craft. I do not know how long I slept after I passed out from my illness. I do not know where I am.

The ship, which seemed too small when crowded with rowdy and surly sailors now seems unmanageably large. The sails are in tatters, but even if they were fit for the sea, I cannot pilot such a large craft by myself.

[Entry 8]
The sea anchor has caught and it is a two-man job to raise it. The review of the stockpiles is dire. At the last dinner I had in his stateroom, the captain said these waters were rarely traveled. If I am to survive, I must somehow turn my creaking, wooden prison into a farm and shelter. The ocean bottom is tantalizingly close, but I know I will not find arable soil there. I must hope that the past geological eras have folded and reworked this submerged land, trapping soil deep within.
