WhAT iS MinEcRAfT M inecraft is an incredibly creative game that can be played either online with people from all over the world or just played with friends or played alone It’s likely one of the most creative things I’ve seen come to computer gaming in a long time Referred to as a sandbox game it gives the player the ability to build anything their minds can imagine using textured cubes as their building materials Of course most players first build a castle that seems like a rite of pas sage in Minecraft Players quickly realize though that the rules of physics don’t apply to this digital landscape In Creative mode you can build floating cities in the sky a bridge to nowhere or an under water village of glass that was one of the things that were destroyed on my son’s server I’ve seen people build massive ornately decorated spiral staircases that extended from deep down at the bedrock level all the way up to the build limit layer 255 and others building massive space stations that float in the sky and span hundreds of blocks in all directions Anything is possible as long as you follow two important rules 1 everything is made of blocks and 2 you can build anything
