Minecraft – the end of my life as I know it
Over the Christmas holidays I had spent some time relaxing by playing a few computer games. I managed to get through Portal, Left 4 Dead, Serious Sam and Max Payne but these are all action games. I really wanted a slower paced strategy game where I could build a city or a nation. I wanted to have it on in the background, while I did other things. I had searched for days for a suitable game and came up with nothing.
Then, I stumbled upon the PC Gamer website and wondered what their highest rated games were. That’s when I saw it. The game I had heard a lot of buzz about recently called Minecraft had been given 96%. That’s a phenomenal score so I read the review and was intrigued. I then watched a tutorial video for the game on YouTube and was hooked. I knew I had to buy it…
The next day around lunchtime I caved in and bought it. I downloaded it, installed it and seven hours later I realised I hadn’t moved. Minecraft has taken over my life!
