Minecraft is a sandbox video game that was released back in 2011 by Mojang Studios. In less than a decade, Minecraft has taken on the title of best-selling video game of all time. It boasts over 126 million active users every month, and has successfully sold over 200 million copies across all platforms.
Minecraft is a sort of open-world environment that encourages players to explore and be resourceful should they wish to survive (or even progress) through the game. By discovering raw materials, crafting tools, and honing building skills, players can build whole structures and—eventually—whole cities.
Minecraft is loved by a lot of people because it encourages creativity and gives complete autonomous freedom to the players. There is no linear storyline or fixed timeline that the player must adhere to. They’re free to experience Minecraft at their own pace and on their own terms (much like our Minecraft Coding classes!)
In Minecraft, players can cooperate with other players to build thriving cities. They can also compete against them to steal their resources. Players can also choose to race against time and tide in Survival Mode or stay safe and practice building in Creative Mode. And because it’s such a huge world with tons of potential, Minecraft has plenty of replay value.
