Below, we’ve included tutorial videos to help you through your Blocksmith experience. You can also check out this quick reference for BlocksmithXR Builder’s controls, or visit Blocksmith’s help page.

Please note that these videos were recorded using version 4 of BlocksmithXR builder. Blocksmith has since released major updates that may have changed some of the interface features shown, but in general, the videos are still applicable. The biggest change is the depreciation of the credit system. You will no longer receive credits, but instead, you will have access to ALL curriculum tracks with your active subscription. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

Note for Mac users: Some controls in BlocksmithXR Builder require the ALT key. Your keyboard uses the OPTION key instead!
