Minecraft Art Shows Wardens Are The Scariest Mobs In The Game

A talented Minecraft fan has created a unique and frightening work of art based upon the game's Warden enemies. These menacing creatures were just recently added to the game and look to be one of Minecraft's most resilient monster types.

While Minecraft is typically seen as being focused on relaxing, creative gameplay, there are plenty of opportunities for controller-gripping gameplay in the form of the game's many hostile NPCs. There are surface-level enemies like the pesky Creepers, Drowned, and Zombies, who will often destroy players' creations if not kept at bay. Things can get a bit more creepy and unsettling as more of the world is explored, however, as more difficult enemies like the Ender Dragon and Wither will pose a real challenge for gamers who aren't prepared to face them. Some of these monsters types, including Enderman, Husk, and Ghast (the subject of Minecraft's Uneasy Alliances achievement) are considered to be quite visually startling by players in addition to posing a considerable threat.

The sketch, which appears to have been drawn in either ink or pencil, depicts the faceless monster walking forward, surrounded by some sort of dark void. The only other object in the drawing is a small spider hanging above the Warden's head.

Minecraft fan art is nothing new, but this illustration will certainly leave a lasting
