Understanding Minecraft is a collection of scholarly-level essays devoted to exploring the cultural impact of a game that for most users is anything but scholarly. Seriously, for a game this fun, this is some dense reading. Nate Garrelts' introductory essay is easily the best of the group, and subsequent two aren't bad either, but then the rest devolves into a delirium of intellectual exercises aimed at understanding Minecraft from a point of view few care about.

"Since its official release in 2011, Minecraft has sold nearly 50 million copies across all gaming platforms. The premise of Minecraft is simple: destroy, collect, build and interact in a world made entirely of colored cubes. Unlike Lego blocks, Minecraft's digital play space allows for virtually limitless creation without the cost and limitations of physical building materials"-- No library descriptions found. |
