What is this game even about? It looks like a Lego game gone crazy.

That actually works as a description.  Not only the Legos set itself, but elements in the Lego set become criminally insane, and try to kill you.  Some of them will even blow themselves up in front of you, suicide bomber style, trying to take you out.

If you go PC version, you get a full sandbox with civilizations you can help develop.  It has wilderness survival elements to it.

@barozi

you should smelt some of the cobblestones!


yeah well I did that a few times, but I honestly don't see the point in doing that. If it wasn't for the colour, I would've built the whole castle out of earth.


Some other points I need to bring up:

- Gold is friggin' rare and diamonds even more. I just found one vein veeeery deep below the ground.
- I plowed a small field (3x3 blocks) and sowed 5 pieces of seed in a shape that looked like a penis (unintentional). I went underground and after I came up the small plants changed the formation... (I hope you understand me, because agricultural terms are usually not part of my vocabulary)
- I finally feel ready to fight some enemies. Can't believe how many hours I already spent playing this game... and it feels like I haven't accomplished anything yet.

Because you said, "Don't laugh", you ended up making me overthink what you did there, and suddenly the words.... "Fortress Goatse" came to mind.  Sorry, but once you see it, you can't unsee it .

Glad to see people really enjoying the game, you really have to play it to understand. Been playing it on PC with Shader mods , Faction Mods, More animal mods , more Mob mods, So good, have not got this one yet but will soon to play with friends. hopefully updates will make the worlds larger.

You ever play around with the Yogbox?  I became aware of it, after getting annoyed at the stupidity of Tobuscus, and then finding out he used the Yogbox.  Minecraft went into an entirely fresh direction by adding the Yogbox which manages nearly 40 mods in it.

Zombie mode, plus other unique multiplayer stuff, like the wager modes in it, lends to it getting a lot of play still.  It has a following for a reason, even with MW3 out.  Black Ops 2 stands a good chance to get it to cool off.

Anyhow,, Kudos to Minecraft.
