Minecraft: How to repopulate a destroyed village in Minecraft village?

Minecraft is one of the most popular games in the industry, touted as one of the greatest in one point in time. Minecraft has also been used in educational environments, especially in the realm of computing systems, as virtual computers and hardware devices have been built in it and a number of spin-off games have also been produced, such as Minecraft: Story Mode, Minecraft Dungeons, and Minecraft Earth. Depending on game mode, players can fight computer-controlled “mobs”, as well as cooperate with or compete against other players in the same world. Game modes include a survival mode, in which players must acquire resources to build the world and maintain health, and a creative mode, where players have unlimited resources. Players can modify the game to create new gameplay mechanics, items, and assets.

However, one of the most challenging aspects of Minecraft is repopulating a village. In many areas, many gamers will find a village without villagers. The reasons may be that they all died due to an attack/raid on the village. There are ways to repopulate the village either manually or creatively.

Kidnapping a villager

In normal terms, kidnapping an individual from another village and getting him/her to the destroyed village is one way of repopulating. In case this is not an option, there is another way. If there is a body of a villager in the destroyed area or they have become zombies, players must lure or shove a villager into a boat and steer off towards the empty village. If there isn’t a body of water nearby, players will have to drag their boat onto the land and push the villager into it there.

The zombies will leave the boat unless it is broken. If this task is considered too tedious, then they can go to the zombie village and begin the healing process there. To cure a Zombie villager, players must throw a Potion of Weakness at them and then give them a Golden Apple. More specifically, they must be under the Weakness effect and then be given a golden apple. After they’re cured, the player can then transport the villager to the village of their choice.

How to lure the zombies? Since zombies can spawn randomly, planning to lure them will be a difficult task. Players can dig an empty ditch in the village and lure them by certain techniques.
