Ah... Minecraft... a game which I've been wanting to play ever since I saw SkyDoesMinecraft... and a few days after saving up, I got it! And man was it better then I expected. Whys that you may ask? Well... just... take a look...



Graphics: 8/10.

You may be thinking if your a Minecraft noob: "ERH T3H GR3RPHIC5 SUCK IN DIS GA3M". And, whilst I COULD agree on that, I chose not to. Why? Well, if you see sites like Planet Minecraft and the official Minecraft Forums, you can see a thing called Resource Packs, which alter the graphics in one way. One of my favourites is Faithful 32x32 by Vattic. Makes it HD, but is faithful (that's why he called it "Faithful") to the original graphics. Others can change the audio (I made my own resource pack and it has Faithful with minecraft parodies as music discs :3), the mobs, and with the recent update (Minecraft 1.7.X), you can combine resource packs. Like some music from a resource pack but want to keep the textures from another? Don't bother editing it yourself, just put the audio pack below the texture pack! It's fun to mess around with sounds as well, like replacing all the sounds with a human's voice (that's a thing by the way). Also, if you click on the button next to "Exit Game", you can choose a language. There's Pirate language. Your argument is invalid.



Sound: 8/10.

Man, did C418 did a good job on the soundtrack. We got favourites such as "cat" and "wait" (which was formally named "where are we now"), as well as some lovely calm tunes whilst your not listening to a jukebox playing in the background. Also, with resource packs (formally mentioned), you can change the music into theme songs (one even thought of having the Game Of Thrones theme on the resource pack. <3 Element Animation), and change the sound effects to crazy things like a TNT block when lit going "YALALALALALALA". A lot of possibilities with sound.



Addictiveness: 10/10.

This (and depth) is where the game really shines. There are so many things that can keep you coming back for more, for example, seeing how your wheat farm was going on while you were away or finding out what animal has spawned in your house for the umpteenth time. And this isn't even mentioning the Multiplayer! The multiplayer features this game boasts is unbelievably limitless. We have server programs such as Bukkit (the main one used in huge servers, and yes, I spelt that right, don't say it's a spelling mistake. Google is your friend.), Cauldron/MCPC+ (Which is used for Forge mods along with Bukkit plugins), Vanilla (Which is just plain survival) and a few others such as Spigot. Oh, and don't get me started on the mods, there are many mods to enhance gameplay such as Optifine, Shaders, Minimaps, etc. There are also huge mods which add more mechanics, Mobs and blocks to the game, such as The Aether II (Yes, there is a sequel to The Aether, be happy), Pixelmon and Mo' Creatures. Also, I can't forget to mention the Creative Mode. This lets you have all (yes, all) but a few blocks in Minecraft, so you can build whatever you want whilst the mobs don't get in your way.



Story: Really... it's up to you.

Reason why I said that is because there isn't really a story... unless you make one up. You could be on your quest to fight the Ender Dragon, The Wither, building a mansion, completely decking out your weapons to provide those I just mentioned... there's a lot of stories you could come up with. As for me, I don't really go on survival mode but in creative mode. I just like building things.



Depth: 10/10.

Many, many, many, MANY things you could do in Minecraft. You could play with your friends, play against your enemies, have a modded survival series, the possibilities are really endless. Also before you whine if there isn't many people in this game, I dare quote from the official Minecraft website:

So far 16,334,686 people bought the PC/Mac version of the game. Phew.

...and counting.



Difficulty: 5/10.

There are 4 different difficulty settings (5 if you count the mode I'm about to mention), hence why I made it 5/10. There's Hard, the second hardest setting, Normal, which is... normal, Easy which is easy, and Peaceful, where no hostile mobs will ruin your day! (Just be careful of attacking wolves or iron golems though, they're neutral mobs). There is also a Hardcore mode, where the difficulty is locked to hard and the hostile mobs are much stronger. Oh, and did I forget to mention? YOU. GET. ONE. LIFE. Yes, this is pretty much YOLO mode gone extreme. If you are on Hardcore Mode on Singleplayer, the world gets deleted and you have to start again by making a new hardcore world. If you are on a server with Hardcore Mode, you can't respawn, and when you leave, you get banned.



Overall Rating: A 9.7/10
This is one of my favourite games and if you haven't played it you should, especially if you like Sandbox games, PVP, or just building. And here is a picture of my skin (my username is transformas12345, if you see me say hi ) just because why not.

(WHY AM I OBSESSED WITH ATTACK ON TITAN EVEN THOUGH I NEVER WATCH THE ANIME Dx)

This review is pretty decent, but your layout makes it a little hard to read.  I have to admit that I did laugh when you mentioned the pirate language.

Which mode do you like to play in the most?  I usually play in normal mode, but I've KIND of wanted to try the hardest mode where you only get one life.  I haven't been brave enough to do it yet though. xD

When I first played Minecraft, it was the first game that made me rage-quit ever.  However, it's now just about one of the only games I will try to make time to play. XD

I guess the ONLY downside to this review is that there were absolutely no negatives mentioned. I understand that some games are just pure awesome, but every game has a weakness, right?  You seem to think so since you didn't give it a perfect score.  Why not a 10/10?

Singelli : I plan to get a different layout soon, I normally go on Creative Mode, and about the downsides... I'll think about them and edit them in when I have the chance.
