Why Minecraft Is So Popular

Publise by Himanshu raj Date=2 August 2020

If you haven’t heard of Minecraft yet, believe me, your kids have.

Minecraft is so hugely popular that Microsoft just bought it for $2.5 billion from its creator and distributor, Mojang. You may be asking, what is all the fuss about? Satya Nadella, Chief Executive at Microsoft explained the purchase of the graphically unimpressive-looking game this way, “It’s this open-world platform. If you think about it, it’s the one game parents want their kids to play.”

Minecraft is an engaging, educational, and creative game. Think of it as Legos without the mess in your living room. Players place and break blocks in a 3D environment. They must ‘mine’ for all the materials they need to live, including ‘crafting’ tools, and the building blocks needed to create their spaces. Users can build anything; a house, a farm, a city, the inside of an American Girl Doll store, a football stadium, a replica of Disney World, the Natural History Museum, a site map for “Game of Thrones”; the opportunities are infinite. This is in part why it is also one of the most popular games ever.

The game is available across many platforms including iOS, Android, PlayStation, Xbox and PC. There are several modes of play, but the two main modes are Survival and Creative. In Survival mode a player faces zombies and must acquire the resources needed to build shelter, get food, and fight predators. In Creative mode, players have unlimited resources to mine from in order to build homes, towns, cities, whole worlds really.

Kids can be invited to join in each other’s worlds to play, create, fight the zombies or just build anything they can imagine, without the limits of the real physical world. Players use critical thinking and creative problem solving skills in all modes, which is a reason why, as Nadella stated, parents might actually want their kids to play this game. Minecraft encourages our kids to use technology creatively, a skill they will surely need in the future.

The problem with this game is that it is virtually endless. Endless possibilities, endless levels, and endless creation, which leads to endless screen time. Ultimately parents, and I can attest to this, have an extremely hard time pulling their kids away from the fun. Users get so wrapped up in the potential that it is hard to stop.

There are also a huge number of Minecraft videos on YouTube. Kids can learn new tricks and get ideas for construction, or simply watch others take the game to new creative heights.

So my advice to you is to let your kids run wild within the game, but be clear that their adventure has time limits set by you.

Lets Play

Getting Started

Getting started with Minecraft is super easy. First, you need to purchase and install the game. After installation is complete, simply start the game by running the launcher you downloaded from the Minecraft homepage, which also gives you the option to play from your browser. Now it’s time to log in, navigate the main menu, and select your game type. See our guide for beginners below.

Logging in and the main menu

The launcher opens the News screen, which displays game updates and links. Enter your username and password in the lower right corner and click Log In to continue to the main menu.

This list describes what you can do after you click the buttons on the main menu:

SinglePlayer: Start or continue a basic game. The remaining portion of this article covers the options for starting a game in SinglePlayer mode.
MultiPlayer: Join other players online.
Languages: Change the language of the text in Minecraft. This tiny button, next to Options, is a speech bubble containing a globe.
Options: Manage game options such as sound, graphics, mouse controls, difficulty levels, and general settings.
Quit Game: Close the window, unless you’re in In-Browser mode.

Starting your first game in SinglePlayer mode

To start your first game in SinglePlayer mode, follow these steps:

Click the SinglePlayer button to view a list of all worlds.

If you’re just starting out in Minecraft, this list should be empty.
Click the Create New World button to start a new game.

The Create New World page appears.
In the World Name text box, type whatever name you want and click the Create New World button at the bottom of the screen.

To turn on cheats, click the More World Options button, and then click the Allow Cheats button to turn cheats on or off.

Turning on game cheats increases or decreases the level of difficulty as you play and switches between Creative mode and Adventure mode. Cheats give you more control over the world when you’re just getting started.

When you finish creating your world, the game automatically starts by generating the world and placing your avatar (character) in it.

Selecting the Right Game Mode in Minecraft

Minecraft offers several different types of game modes that allow you to experience the open world in a unique way. The types of Minecraft game modes available are:

Survival – after randomly being spawned in a new world, players have to try and survived by gathering material, building shelter, gaining experience, and fighting off hostile mobs.
Creative – a game mode where players have immediate access to almost all blocks and items, are invulnerable & immunes to death, and have the ability to fly. The purpose of this game mode is to create / design unique worlds.
Adventure – players interact with objects (levers, buttons) and mobs to complete an adventure.
Spectator – Invisible to everything and cannot interact with blocks, entities, or your inventory. This mode is typically used to observe other player’s created worlds.
Hardcore – Similar to survival mode, Hardcore is set to the “hard” difficulty level permanently and players cannot respawn; once you die, the map is deleted (or you permanently become a spectator).

Your First Day in Minecraft

When selecting SinglePlayer and Survival mode in Minecraft, your first day can be very exciting but also very stressful. You are immediately thrown into a world with little resources and have to prepare yourself to ensure you survive your first night, when hostile mobs are more likely to attack you. Typically, your first day in Minecraft involves things like collecting resources, punching woods, killing animals, building or finding shelter, gathering food, etc.

Now that you know how to play Minecraft, enjoy building and exploring the limitless virtual worlds available to you!

How to Build a Crafting Table in Minecraft

Knowing how to build a crafting table in Minecraft is a helpful trick to make more complex items. To build a crafting table and storage chest in Minecraft, you need wooden planks. Follow these steps to use wood blocks to produce wooden planks:

Press E to display the Inventory screen.
Click a square containing wood blocks to pick them up, and then click an empty square in the crafting grid to place them there.

Four wooden planks appear next to the grid.
Click the square that contains the planks.

One wood block disappears, but four wooden planks appear on the mouse cursor!
Click the square that contains the planks a few more times to pick up all the planks you can, or Shift-click to send all planks directly to the inventory.

You can use these planks as building blocks or to build a crafting table and chest.

Your avatar’s crafting grid is a 2-by-2 square; however, many items you need in order to survive require a 3-by-3 grid to craft. To unlock this larger grid, you build a crafting table. Follow these steps to build a crafting table, or workbench:

Press E to open the Inventory screen.
Click a square containing your planks, and then right-click each square in the crafting grid to distribute four planks into the squares.

A crafting table appears on the right, as shown.
Click the crafting table to pick it up, and then click a square in the bottom row of the inventory to place the table there.

You can access items outside the Inventory screen only if they’re on the bottom row. This row is always displayed at the bottom of the game screen.
Press E or Esc to close the inventory.
Use the 1–9 keys or the scroll wheel to select the crafting table.

A thick, white outline appears around the crafting table.

You can use either the number keys or the scroll wheel to select items from the bottom row of the inventory. Place the most useful items in the slots you can quickly access.
Right-click a nearby surface to place the crafting table there.
