MineCraft


This is MineCraft, well not just this picture its more than that :) MineCraft is an indie game which basically means its a game that's constantly being developed and updated and usually is made by a single maker or a small group and as you can see on the first picture MineCraft is made by a man who goes bu the name Notch. Anyway Ive been putting this review off for a few weeks now, its not because the game is bad or anything its just gonna take so long to review, as simple as this game is there is so much to get down. I guess I should start with what your all thinking the graphics. One thing I almost did was look straight past this game as I nearly judged it by its graphics, the one thing that got me looking into this game was the old school look of the game. We all know I love a good old school retro game so it got my interest. After some research and a few months playing Ive got to really appreciate the style of this game and really love the graphics.


So once you get over the graphics and style you can really get into what this game is about, for me its split up into three parts, First is creating and crafting all kinds of worlds, Homes and anything you can think of, the second side is adventure and searching the different worlds that you find your self in, the final part is survival, making sure you survive and live in this world. One thing I always get asked is what do you actually do in this game, and I always say the same thing you can do anything you like its so open ended and anything is possible . . . well within reason that is :)


The first thing that you do in this game is create your world, You can pick a name of your choice and then its time to generate your world there are two options for this you can have the game randomly design your world or you can select a seed. The great thing about this game is that every time someone plays this game the experience is always different. The secondary option of picking a seed allows you to play a set world which is always the same but even then will always be played differently by different players. Once you have your world generated its time to start your adventure. The idea is that you have crashed into this world all alone with nothing and you have to survive, this sounds all well and dandy and from the pictures above it all looks swell, That is until night, if your not in some shelter by the time the sun sets you may be in some trouble because as you soon find out this is no ordinary world, this is a world that changes in the dark Spiders, Zombies, Skeletons, slimes and creepers are all out to do one thing kill and destroy.


Once you have your shelter and survive your night its time to start exploring your world and start building, expanding and creating. You can build tools to help you build quicker and more efficiently, weapons and armor to help protect your self and furniture to store your items or rest. One thing that's most important in this game is light, if at any point you see a dark area a Creature can spawn there not so much a problem in the day but at night torches and light sources are a must. MineCraft does have multi player but for the moment its not a full design and is run by the player creating there own servers, I imagine there will be a built in multi player at some stage.


All in all this game is great and can only get better with every update this game gets at the moment the game is in Beta and costs €14.95 and when the game is released as a full product it will sell at €20.00 so go buy it now and get the discount :) you wont regret it trust me.
