This type of quicksand would be added to the mangrove swamps. It would be there to add a little more excitement and danger to your muddy adventure. Just like quicksand in real life, the Mangrove Quicksand would not drown you, but instead, trap you. Once you step in it, you will immediately start to sink. You will stop sinking once you are about 1.5 blocks deep. It is possible though to escape it. By quickly moving forward and jumping, you can shimmy your way out of the quicksand. The real danger of these sinking traps is that you will stuck there until night, and mobs will finish you off. Quicksand can be crafted at a crafting table, with a bucket of water on the bottom center, with a dirt block above it, and 2 pieces of sand to each side of the dirt block, and with a clay ball on top of the dirt. It will function a bit like water, where you can pick it up with a bucket, but it will only spread a couple blocks before stopping in a fixed position. Upon crafting quicksand, you will get the achievement "Sinking Discovery." This semi-liquid block has a similar texture to mud but with a lighter pigment and a swirled pattern. And if a zombie stays in some quicksand for too long, it will turn into a husk. It will generate in large patches throughout the Mangrove Swamp. For all the brave adventurers out there, watch out for this tricky trap next time you're out exploring!
