Bricks
Let’s get started with getting some bricks, simply press B
to open the brick catalog and select from the wide range of bricks. If you accidentally select a brick that you don’t like, you can simply right-click
on it and it will remove that brick from the list.

Building
After you’ve gotten your bricks it’s time to get to building. To get started press x
to open your hammer and then press the number of the brick you want.

Building on brickadia is easy to get a hang of, it’s easy to place as all you have to do is left-click
or press numpad enter
.

You can also place bricks in a different sized grid, to start press numpad -
. This can make it easier to add more detail.

For more accuracy, you can go into detached mode by pressing right-click
. To move it forward simply press numpad 8
. To Move it backwards press numpad 2
. To move it left or right press numpad 4
and numpad 6
. To move it up and down press numpad +
and numpad 5
.

There is also a function called orbit mode and to activate it simply press o
. The controls for it are about the same as detached mode except to move up and down you press space
and shift
.

You can even place bricks in a row, just hold place and move your mouse. This also works in detached and orbit move, just hold place and use the move keys.

And a major function you can’t forget is rotating the bricks by pressing r
or ctrl r
.

Something you can’t forget is changing the orientation. Sometimes you need bricks in a different orientation like ramps and micro-wedges. To do this just press numpad /
.

Painting
Painting is an important part of building in brickadia, to get started press e
. To move through the selections, press e again or press ctrl
and then use the mouse wheel. To move up and down just use the mouse wheel without ctrl
. To change materials, simply press ctrl e
.

Finally, if you make a mistake just pull out the hammer by pressing x
and left-clicking
on the bricks you want to remove.

I still don’t know if I want to try brickadia, it just doesn’t look like it would appeal to me.
