you could google it. Much faster.

Crazy idea I know. But it's better than an explanation you'll get in a paragraph.

It's basically Legos by way of Robinson Crusoe by way of semi-retro graphics. (No leveling or anything, but there is crafting)

You know what, look at some videos on YouTube and you'll probably get the idea.

...And you should play it because it's awesome.

because we all know wikipedia is written by soulless fact machines

protip: look up the game yourself, and make up your own fucking mind, herdling.

but no. it costs money. to the extent at which anything with minimal DRM costs money.

Or...say..click that sweet videos link at the top of google, get some badass in-game action going on. It really works -much- better.

Plus google gives you tons of results, it's not a straight pipe to a wiki page.

nnnno, trolling would require either the giving of misinformation or deliberate action with the intent to anger another.

It's building blocks combined with nazi zombies combined with being free or buyable. It's pretty awesome.

I have to agree, a Google search would have SHOWN you what Minecraft is. Then, you could have asked us "HOW" the gameplay is and all that jazz...much quicker and with less hassle.

Starting a thread without basic knowledge of what the subject matter is...it's no excuse in this day and age, especially in an online Forum Post. We're not talking about a game, say in Coffee shop or the Library where one might lack the resources needed to check up on it.

An abstract indulgment of your inner artist, but only allowed to work with LEGO blocks. You can use them to make just about anything, and use those things to get new LEGOs to make more things. Then it becomes nighttime and monsters come out to murder you and your LEGOs. And when you die, you go again, and you protect yourself from the monsters, and you build... build like you have never built before!

Personally, I'm in the middle of making a minecart track that traverses as large a land area as possible, but I'm too proud to inventory hack, thus it's becoming difficult to find Iron in my preffered mine. So, I must begin a mine anew in a new area.
