Minecraft Review

I guess with how much time I spend playing it I should review Minecraft finally.

Minecraft is an open world survival/creative based game. In it you are stranded in a strange and unknown world where you must collect resources, food, and build to survive and bring your dreams to reality. In the game there are two modes: Survival where you can be hurt and killed by monsters and hazards and must eat and collect resources to survive(duh); and Creative where you have almost all items given to you and you are invincible and can fly.
One of Minecraft's best qualities is that it is almost constantly updated. Most bugs are quickly eliminated and new features added.

On a scale of 1-10 I give it:

Ease of Play: 7 (While the game lacks a true manual it makes up for it with an easy to use, understand, and very extensive Wiki.)

Graphics: 6 (The game has block based graphics but is still beautiful nonetheless, also new texture packs can be downloaded from many sources and in many styles, I currently am using a Steampunk style. Also the Game is very forgiving on lower graphics cards and on board graphics of newer computers, though you will have to turn your draw distance to small or tiny.)

Replay: 10 (I play this game more than any other game I own. When I "Complete" the world I am in I plan on making a new one since I created the current world before upgrades where made to the generator, also world generator mods can be downloaded as well.)

Family Friendlyness: 9 (Very family friendly. No cursing, blood, and minimal violence. The only problem you might run into is scary nights when the monsters seem to be overly active.)

All in all I give it a 9.

I would highly recommend this game to anyone. No cons so far.
