Minecraft Overview

Every month, more than 115 million players demonstrate that a game doesn’t require stunning visuals to become popular. In Minecraft, you find yourself in a pixelated world full of blocks, where menacing creatures emerge at night, seeking to harm you. Safeguard your existence by constructing various structures that act as a defense against these monsters.

You will need to start out by chopping down trees to get wood which can be turned into sticks and boards. From there you’ll be able to craft some tools so you can start building. As you progress through the Minecraft world you’ll be able to acquire better tools that can be used to design weapons, shields, and better structures.

Minecraft has two main modes, Survival and Creative.

• Survival Mode: The scary monsters will come out after sunset and you’ll have the option to either fight or take cover until daybreak.
• Creative Mode: The monsters stay away from this mode, and you’ll have the freedom to build and design an entire world. Imagine that you have access to all the LEGO pieces you could ever want, and build, towers, homes, roads, cars, etc. Your only limit is your imagination.

As you progress in the world of Minecraft, you’ll be able to expand your world by downloading new Mods and play with friends in Multiplayer mode.
