Minecraft is a sandbox video game developed by Mojang. The game was created by Markus "Notch" Persson in the Java programming language.

Minecraft is a game about breaking and placing blocks. At first, people built structures to protect against nocturnal monsters, but as the game grew, players worked together to create wonderful, imaginative things.

Believe it or not, Minecraft is a game about mining and crafting. Players break blocks to gather the resources they need to build tools and weapons to protect against nocturnal monsters. 

As the game grew, players worked together to build wonderful, imaginative things. This game is also about adventuring with friends or watching the sunrise over a blocky ocean. 

Brave players battle terrible things in The Nether, which is more scary than pretty. You can also visit a land of mushrooms.

If you get tired of the Nether or mushroom land, you can build anything from huge monuments to replicas of the Tower of Babel.

Minecraft is a sandbox game that has as much to do with Minecraft as a dictionary has to do with a quilt. Or a quilt has to do with a blanket. Or a blanket has to do with a bed. Or a bed has to do with sleeping.
