What is Minecraft?

Minecraft is a sandbox video game where the player explores an algorithmically generated 3D world, survives in it, competes with others and builds whatever desired.

Markus Notch Persson designed Minecraft in Java Programming Language and was initially released as public alpha in 2009. Later Janes Bergensten took over the development and launched the official version in 2011. Over the years, it was published on various platforms namely Windows, OS X, Linux, Android, iOS, Xbox 360, Windows phone, Playstation 3,4 and Vita, Nintendo Switch etc. by Mojang, Microsoft Studios and Sony Computer Entertainment.

Minecraft has no particular goals giving the player immense freedom to choose how to play the game. It is available in both first-person and third-person perspectives. There are many 3-D objects available in the game world called blocks usually representing materials such as dirt, stone, ores, tree trunks, water, and lava etc. The blocks are mainly cubes and fluid which can

be mined and then placed in a 3-D Grid to build various items. The game world can be explored by the player using a map seed which is generated at the time, the game world is created.

The Minecraft world is limited vertically but infinite horizontally. At the beginning of the game, the player is asked to choose one of the five game modes and choose one of the four difficulty levels ranging from peaceful to hard. The difficulty level can be changed anytime you wish throughout the game but the game mode can be changed only through cheats.

The various game modes of Minecraft are: 

  • Survival mode: Here, the player needs to collect resources for survival, get protected from monsters, falls, starvation, suffocation and other difficulties. Players may collect items in their inventories which fall upon dying.
  • Hardcore Mode: This is a modified survival mode where upon death the world gets deleted permanently. In a multiplayer setup, the player who dies is placed in spectator mode.
  • Creative Mode: In this mode, the player gets abundant resources and can simply focus on building and creating projects without any hindrance.
  • Adventure Mode: It is quite similar to survival mode with restrictions enforced by map.
  • Spectator mode: Here the player gets to watch the gameplay without any interaction.

Multiplayer in Minecraft ensures the interaction of various players in a given world through the direct game to game multiplayer, LAN play, local split-screen and servers either player hosted or dedicated servers.
