Minecraft is an indie game created by Markus Persson, who has published the game under the name Mojang. The game was released on May 17, 2009, and has grown in popularity since then. Minecraft is an open-world sandbox game that is played on the PC, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4, Android, iOS, and Wii U. It was originally created by Swedish programmer Markus "Notch" Persson and later developed and published by Mojang (the company Persson co-founded). Players can either create their own world or explore the world of others.
In Minecraft, players have an inventory which they use to hold tools, weapons, and other items. They have one block to build with, and can collect many more to build anything they want. Players can create structures and communities, and can even make simple programs and games.
Gameplay
The game is about breaking and placing blocks in a three-dimensional world. The player has an inventory in which the various blocks found in the game are kept. These blocks can be used to build various structures. Whenever the player destroys a block, it goes to the player's inventory. All the blocks in the world are made up of rectangular prisms. There are two modes of gameplay, survival and creative. Survival mode is the game's default game mode and its objective is to survive as long as possible. The game's terrain is generated as the player moves around, crafting, mining ores, building structures, fighting enemies, and growing plants. Creative mode, on the other hand, is more of a free-play game mode. It allows players to build structures without the worry of night-time or hostile mobs, and without having to mine or gather resources.
Minecraft is played with the mouse only. Players can explore the world, collect items, battle monsters, and build things. The game has a day/night cycle where at night monsters come out to terrorize the player. Multiplayer is an option for players to gather with friends to explore Minecraft's world. Players can also create their own worlds with mods.
Graphics
Minecraft has a blocky, pixelated aesthetic. It is not realistic, but it is not unrealistic either. Minecraft is not a game that would be considered beautiful to watch.
Replayability
Minecraft is a game that can be played infinitely, simply because all players can easily create their own game. Because the game is infinite, Minecraft cannot be anything but replayable.
Pros
- Minecraft is a game that is free of charge, and it is a game that can be played infinitely
- Is that it is limitless. Minecraft lets the player create anything they want, whether that is a tree or a small house
- Is that there are many different challenges that are in the game. These challenges are very fun, and make the game more exciting
Cons
- Minecraft can cause some people to be aggressive because of its competitive nature
Conclusion
Minecraft is a good game for children and adults alike. It is not too hard and not too easy, and that means that it can be played over and over again.
