The use of a Legendary Lute allows you to command Allays, the mobs which facilitate the mining of local resources and building of vital structures. You're frequently tasked with playing the role of attacker and defender in Minecraft Legends. Minecraft Legends is hours of pointing, clicking, and hoping for the best. Should they fall from a height, they won't return to their intended destination of their own volition – forcing you to leave the fight, scoop them up, and manually lead them back up user-generated ramps. They stand idly as they're shot with arrows. Units ignore enemy mobs not an inch away.

Your army has to be constantly handheld, owing to AI models that rarely engage with anything around them.

Combat is not only shallow, but requires a dreary amount of repetition to see scenarios through. Mileage can vary in PvP, where players are free to build wildly complicated defensive patterns for you to grind units against, but I didn't find a campaign encounter that couldn't be overcome by an army of Stone Golems and a Redstone Launcher.
