Introduction Minecraft server
Minecraft is a sandbox construction game created by Mojang AB founder Markus "Notch" Persson, inspired by Infiniminer, Dungeon Keeper and previous Notch, Legend of the Chambered and RubyDung games. The gameplay involves players interacting with the game world by placing and breaking different types of blocks in a three-dimensional environment. In this environment, players can create creative structures, creations, and artwork on multiplayer servers and solo worlds in multiple game modes.
