Build a secret base in Minecraft!

Hidden lairs are one of the coolest things you can build in Minecraft. Whether you're playing in a single player world and you want to build something secret purely for vibes or you actually have a risk of other players finding - and griefing - your creation on a multiplayer server, we want you to create a secret base!

You can show us your secret base either via a series of screenshots or a video tour, but don't forget it should be hidden. We're also banning schematics in this building challenge, so to increase your chance of a reward, show us an in-progress shot or two as well to prove your creation is truly yours! The most impressive secret base can win $10, with $5 going to four runners-up.
