Recommended version is 1.8.9, but any versions after that should work fine. Setting your brightness to moody is also recommended.

The year is 1875. A pyramid is discovered within a remote location on the ends of the earth, with rumors of incredible riches and dangers. A brave explorer dares to find the answer to the question: Is the treasure real? He sets out in 1878 with an abundance of food and supplies. Many months later, he does not return. Numerous searches have been done since then, with many of them resulting in major casualties and loss of life. The year is now 2010, and you set out in search of the lost treasure within the pyramid. Knowing the tragic fates of the other explorers, you tread with caution and distress as you enter the pyramid.

This map is heavily based off of an old map made back in 2010 called MCPyramid, just like this one. You can still find download links for it scattered here and there, but the official forum thread download links no longer work. I decided to make this map because of this incident.

There's really no rules besides a few. Besides that, you can break any block, build anything, and craft anything.
Here's the few rules.

1: Don't leave the desert (there's void out there) and don't mine any blocks in the cliffs.
2: Don't break into the pyramid in any other way but the entrance. Although it's impossible to get into the pyramid other than the entrance, because... bedrock.
