GAME INFORMATION
Minecraft is a 3D sandbox game created by Mojang. Although the graphics are very retro-pixelated, the game has unlimited possibilities in what you can do. Whether you're into surviving, building bases, designing architecture, creating contraptions, even making games within the game, Minecraft has it covered.
The game's survival elements challenge the player with hostile creatures of the night, the fear of starvation, as well as the hazardous terrain. In multilayer it be can become even more complex as other players become either hostile, or friendly, and clans of players rise up against each other in the awesome environment that is multiplayer survival.
On the more creative side of things, players are able to make use of various items and blocks from the game to create contraptions, mechanisms, traps, cannons, and even advanced real life devices like calculators. All of this is made possible by Minecraft's simplistic form of electricity called redstone. Paired up with pistons, slime blocks, TNT, dispensers, or anything really give the creative side of the game an infinite number of possibilities.
On our channel we mainly specialize in Tutorials for creations that we can teach you how to make, although other Minecraft content we do includes let's plays, custom maps, plus much more!
