{{Quote|'''A VILLAGE UNDER ATTACK''' – The village is under attack by the [[MCD:Arch-Illager|Arch-Illager's]] evil [[MCD:Illager|minions]]. Someone needs to save the Villagers before it is too late!|In-game story}}

'''Squid Coast''' is the first [[MCD:Mainland|mainland]] [[MCD:Mission|mission]] {{in|Dungeons}}. It automatically starts after creating a new [[MCD:Character|character]], and completing Squid Coast unlocks {{MCD|Camp}}, {{MCD|Creeper Woods}}, {{MCD|Dingy Jungle}}, {{MCD|Frosted Fjord}}, {{MCD|Windswept Peaks}}, {{MCD|Nether Wastes}}, {{MCD|Coral Rise}}, {{MCD|The Stronghold}}, and {{MCD|The Tower}}. Its [[MCD:Difficulty|difficulty]] is fixed at default I, and it can only be selected on the [[MCD:Mission Select|mission select]] map in an offline game on default difficulty.

== Appearance and description ==
{{Quote|'''SQUID COAST''' – As you embark on your quest to rid the land of evil, you witness the plight of the Villagers firsthand. Squid Coast, once a thriving town, is burning thanks to the evil {{MCD|Arch-Illager}} and his minions. Follow them through the area – and make haste, for the Villagers are in need of you.|''Guide to Minecraft Dungeons:<br>A Handbook for Heroes''}}
Squid Coast is a large villager settlement that has been pillaged by the [[MCD:Arch-Illager|Arch-Illager's]] army. It contains abandoned houses and ships set on fire by the [[MCD:Illager|Illagers]], which the heroes can loot due to permision by the villagers to stop the Arch-Illager.<ref name="book">Mojang, ''[[Guide to Minecraft Dungeons: A Handbook for Heroes]]'', Squid Coast, pg. 29</ref> It features stone bridges, banners, market stalls, wheelbarrows, [[MCD:Villager|villager]] statues, lanterns, and log piles. Certain mobs must be slain to progress through the mission, and near the end of the mission a drawbridge must be lowered using a lever. Upon defeating the Arch-Illager for the first time, an [[MCD:Obsidian Chest|obsidian chest]] becomes accessible inside [[MCD:Lighthouse|Lighthouse]], an optional [[MCD:Sub Dungeon|sub dungeon]] found when turning right after the bridge that has a [[MCD:Skeleton|skeleton]] guarding it. This obsidian chest usually only drops [[MCD:Emerald|emeralds]], but can rarely drop a [[MCD:Fishing Rod|fishing rod]] or [[MCD:Fireworks Arrow|fireworks arrow]]. Upon reaching the end of Squid Coast, the heroes set up camp next to the abandoned [[MCD:Home|Home]] and [[MCD:Great Hall|Great Hall]], ending the mission.

* In the loading screen two [[MCD:Pillager|pillagers]] can be seen, however pillagers cannot spawn in this mission.
