In Part Three of this Minecraft adventure, Steve, Alex, and Donkey have been traveling for days on their way to the Far Lands at the edge of the overworld to find an old dragon named Firetongue in the hopes that he can save Alex's father. The journey has been fraught with danger, and now they must try and escape from a band of skeleton horsemen in the middle of the night and then continue to fight for survival in the hostile Red Desert, enduring heat, hunger, and thirst – and a blistering desert sandstorm.
But finally, lost, tired, hungry, and thirsty, they stumble into a Wild West ghost town in the middle of nowhere. And just when it seems that they have at last found a safe place to stay for the night at the local saloon, they're in for the shock of their lives when the saloon suddenly comes alive after dark with a bunch of monstrous customers that make their hair stand on end!
