Why Minecraft is the best video game created.

Introduction

Minecraft was born on May 17th, 2009 and was named 'Cave game'.

Minecraft, at the beginning, was a game about destroying blocks and placing them. It then became much

more varied; you could choose survival mode or creative mode. It

became a bigger game as time went on.

It was made by a Swedish man named Markus Persson. At first, he

made it in his spare time. Later, when he released it to the public, people

started falling in love with the simplicity of a block game. There was

something about it that sprung joy.

Persson started updating the game, he added more things to it to start

forming it into the amazing game it is today.

Creative Mode

• Creative mode is the simplest

game mode in Minecraft. You

are invincible, you can fly, you

never get hungry, you have

infinite blocks, nothing can

stop you and it is relaxingly

peaceful. There is hundreds of

blocks with multiple functions.

Some are decorative and

some are useful in other

aspects for survival mode.

Creative mode is the best way

to play Minecraft because of

its simplicity and freedom. It

makes Minecraft enjoyable for

everyone.

Survival Mode

• Survival mode is the harder mode of the

two, you must survive and not die to

monsters. You can play alone or with your

friends to try and live in the world and build

the tallest buildings in survival mode. You

can gather wood, iron, stone and much

more. You mine iron ore, gold ore, etc to

get materials to craft better tools and

armour to better equip yourself for the

devious world. There is no main goal, only

to survive and do cool things in your very

own world.

Farming

• Farming is a feature of Minecraft

that allows you to plant food to

grow more of it.

• It is the second-best way to sustain

yourself.

Hunting and animal farming

Hunting for aniamls-animalsand gathering meat is more

sustaining than growing crops.

You can also herd animals to

breed them and harvest some

of the animals to eat.

What are the monsters?

In Minecraft, mobs/monsters are the thing that challenge you in Minecraft survival. It would be too easy if there were no monsters in survival mode. There are multiple mobs, some are hostile, some are friendly, some are neutral.

Hostile: Attack the player immediately.

Neutral: Only attack the player if the player provokes them.

Friendly: Don't attack the player at all and will run away from the player if provoked

What type of monsters are there:• There are zombies, living

skeletons that wield bows

and arrows. Creepers which explode when in

proximation of the player.

Multiple other monsters exist

and roam around the lands

of Minecraft.

Weapons and armour

You can use materials to create tools and armour to better protect yourself. Some materials are iron, gold and diamond.

The better material, the better the armour and tools.

In what way does Minecraft have freedom?

• Minecraft, the game where no one can tell

you what you can and cannot do. Minecraft

is not just a story; it is a pallet for your

imagination. It gives you numerous things to

work with to build the things you want to

build. If you want to build your house in Minecraft, go ahead. If you want to make a

coliseum for fighting monsters like zombies or

skeletons with bows and arrows. The game is

yours to play, you make your world and

enjoy.

Why is Minecraft the best game?

Minecraft is loved by most people who play video games often.

It is the bestselling game ever

Millions of people still play it frequently

It is a simple concept and fun game

Why should I buy it?• There are two versions of Minecraft, one

is called 'Minecraft Java Edition'. Java edition was the first edition and can only be played on computers. The other is 'Minecraft Bedrock Edition'. Bedrock edition is arguably the better of the two editions for one main reason. It is cross platform: XBOX, PS4, Nintendo Switch, iPhone, iPad, Computer. Every device that you can play Minecraft on has Minecraft Bedrock. Computer is the best to play on because you can play Java and Bedrock.
