Game number 2 is another old game that is still very popular among many people, it is called Minecraft. Minecraft is not a game you can purchase on Steam by the way. You have to go to the Minecraft website, make an account, and purchase the game. It used to be $20 when it was still in beta, but it came out of beta not long ago, in 2011 and the price went up ~$10, give or take a few.
This is a 3 dimensional world made up of 1x1 blocks. This game can be multiplayer or single-player. In multiplayer, you can join other people on someone elses server or your own that you host and try to survive either by helping each other or attacking each other. You can do pretty much whatever you want. You use your hand to destroy and pick up blocks, then place them as you like or you can craft them to make tools to help you mine stone or ore. There are animals in the game that you can find that give different drops when killed. You can find pigs which drop pork, chickens which drop feathers and raw chicken, cows which drop leather and beef, and sheep that drop wool. You can also make sheers and sheer the sheep which gives you more wool than it would killing them. All of those mobs are passive and will only run if you try to attack them. There are also wolves which you can tame to follow you and keep as a pet, but if you attack it before taming it, it will attack you. At night, you have to be careful and stay indoors or near light because monsters spawn and will try to attack you.Some different servers have different plugins and so different features can be found on different servers. There are some that put you in creative mode. You are invincible and you have all the materials in the game, this type is mainly for flaunting your creativity and building whatever you want. Most servers are set to survival, where you have a life bar and a hunger bar. If you get hurt, your health bar decreases and if you die, you drop all of your items you have on you and are teleported to spawn or where you last slept in a bed. If you do not eat food, your hunger bar will decrease and if it is at zero, your health bar will start to decrease. If you have full hunger, than you will slowly regenerate health.There is a single player where you can choose between survival and creative so that you can play on your own world without other players. I know a few people that have their own servers, mostly set to creative. I love to build large structures or make sculptures when I play on them.
I will add some photos to try to help you get a better picture.

ReplyDeleteHm, I thought I had posted picture, it seems as though they didn't want to save. I'll try again
DeleteI heard a ton of stuff about minecraft, are you playing it? If so, how much time do you devote to it?
ReplyDeleteI still play a lot. I am members of a few different gaming communities and they often have their own Minecraft servers so I like to join in and play with them. I would definitely suggest buying it, I'd say its worth it.
