One fun idea for a life series or Minecraft Challenge would be "High Life."
In which there is an overabundance of luxury high-tier items but a scarcity of food and other low-tier items, so the players have to play games, trade, or murder one another to get essential lower-tier items. Imagine being surrounded by diamonds but the only player with an iron pickaxe is on the other side of the map wasting it's durability on cobbled deepslate. Coal spawn rates would be depleted, making it difficult to obtain torches.
