The game also offers a wide range of UI options, such as UI size and transparency, and the ability to switch between classic and simplified crafting. Or, you can do a little bit of both the possibilities are endless. If you want to take on the role of a dungeoneer and fight your way to the End to beat the final boss, you can do that too.

There’s much more to it than that, but for the most part, you’re going to spend a heck of a lot of time mining and crafting. In case you’ve been living under a rock for the last 5 years, Minecraft is a game about, well, mining and crafting.

As such, going into this review I thought there was little new to be seen in, and even less to be said about, the newest version of this international phenomenon. Minecraft is arguably the biggest game in the world, and it has been for half a decade or so.
