What is Minecraft

Minecraft is a popular sandbox video game where players can explore, build, and survive in a blocky, procedurally generated 3D world. Developed by Mojang Studios and released in 2011, it allows for both creative and survival modes, giving players the flexibility to either construct elaborate structures with unlimited resources or gather materials and fend off threats like monsters.

Block-based World: Everything in Minecraft is made up of blocks—whether it’s dirt, stone, water, or even creatures. Players interact with the environment by mining and placing blocks.

Creative Mode: In this mode, players have unlimited resources and can fly, allowing them to focus purely on building and exploring without worry.

Survival Mode: Players must gather resources, manage hunger, and protect themselves from hostile mobs (like zombies and skeletons).

Multiplayer: Minecraft supports both single-player and multiplayer, allowing players to collaborate or compete in worlds hosted by servers.

Mods and Customization: Minecraft is highly customizable with mods, texture packs, and user-generated content that can change the gameplay experience.

Minecraft is known for its open-ended gameplay and has been used in various creative, educational, and community-driven projects around the world.
