Minecraft has been around for a long time and it's still going strong. The main reason I believe why Minecraft is still so popular in 2024 is because it receives consistent updates that improve it. Furthermore, there is a little bit of everything for everyone. Thanks to the world seeds, Minecraft is infinitely replayable. Building greatly encourages creativity and children can learn a lot from playing Minecraft. The community-made resources have also shaped Minecraft into what it is today and the competitiveness is what keeps many players interested in playing.

If you're going for the Y level = 16, you can either explore caves or branch mine in Minecraft. Caving is faster but dangerous. Whereas branch mining is safe, but it might take some time before finding iron. If you're lucky, you may find huge iron veins. They generate in the deepslate layers and consist of lots of tuff blocks and deepslate iron ores.
