Gamemodes are different modes for SkyBlock with changes to the game's mechanics. When creating a profile, the player has the option to select a special gamemode. Currently, there are four gamemodes: Classic, ☀ Stranded, ♲ Ironman, and Ⓑ Bingo.
Classic[]
In the Classic (or Normal) gamemode, the player has full access to all features of SkyBlock, including the Bazaar, the Auction House, Trading, and Gifts.
Ironman[]
Ironman is the first special gamemode that was introduced to SkyBlock. On an Ironman profile, the Auction House is disabled, and the Bazaar is restricted to the Special Bazaar. Ironman players also cannot trade with other players (unless in the same co-op) or receive Gifts from other players.
Stranded[]
On a Stranded profile, players cannot leave their Private Island, so there are several changes to make parts of the game's content available. For example, gravel is made when creepers blow up stone.
Bingo[]
Bingo profiles are temporary profiles that can be created by talking to the NPC named Bingo during a Bingo event. The event lasts one week, and the profiles are deleted a few days later. In this gamemode, players cannot access the Auction House, use the Trading system, or spend SkyBlock Gems. Unlike on Ironman and Stranded, the Bazaar is completely disabled.
