Minecraft Mission

As clear from my lack of building talent, this is the first time I have ever played Minecraft, which is odd considering it is the second most popular game of all time. I had a go at playing the pocket edition on an iPad, and built my first house, as pictured above.
Minecraft is a sandbox game, which means the user can do whatever they want to do. It can be played on almost anything, ranging from a phone to a console, and was first released in 2011. The user can mine anything, and then build or create something from what they have mined.
I believe it is so popular because it allows the user to create whatever they want, there are infinite possibilities.
