    Considering the game is still in early alpha stage it has bundles of potental to become one those game that you dont quite understand but you will never forget,

    A few weeks ago when MineCraft wasnt really noticed until word got round and the attention it got made his small server unable to cope with the demand crashed the server so he took the oppunity to let people experiene the game for free for a weekend, on the monday once the server went back online, by 24hrs he had 14k+ registerd users and more buying the game, just look at the stats and you see how much attention its still getting Minecraft Stats

    MineCraft is a difficult game to explain as it isnt even finished yet (still in alpha). The game basically is a world which is 8 times bigger the earth! which is made entirely out of blocks, you start off with nothing to your name and you have to scavenge for wood by punching trees to eventually make an pickaxe or axe http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Crafting The things you can make at the moment which you upgrade to stone and so on.You basically are just looking for the best things possible (at the moment that is diamond which is extremely rare) as there is not much of a story at the moment.

    The developer Notch is creating what is in single player but moving it all to multilayer and he updates often with a secret Friday update every week to keep the players happy. There are also monsters for instance creepers which explode on impact and animals like sheep which you punch for wool and pigs for pork and so on .There are other cool features such as dynamic water and lava but I think it would just be better to show you this fan made trailer and if you are really interested you should search it on Youtube as there are thousands of fan made videos.

    while in alpha it costs around £10, the price will be raised when its entered beta and raised again when released so act quickly.

    There is also a free creative mode which is fun but not a good representative of the actual game which you can try on the MineCraft link above.

    Please dont judge the game from the video and graphics, its more gameplay orientated which believe me will have bashing away blocks for hours and hours.
