Who likes games?

Do it all in Minecraft!

I, myself, like to build cities. The current one I have here is made on my iPad. It's been going for a few months now.

There are versions of Minecraft for iOS, Android, Mac, PC, Linux, and Raspberry Pi.

The iOS version set me back about eight bucks, and man is it fun.

You should definitely give it a try.

I know it's a very popular game with the kid's and adults, but I didn't spend the cash on my HD TV to look at 80's technology, it reminds me of Doom. and the 80's.

Great way to lose track of so many hours! I tried it out cause all my nephews have it. Figured I could go on and play one of their games with them since mine are a little too violent.It is fun once you get into it, but make sure to set your alarm so you don't spend the whole day playing it!

I played Minecraft a few years ago because I love games you can create things in. I know a lot has been added since I last started it up, but it's still pretty crude using only blocks ... just imagine our models built in Minecraft style! To many, the crudeness is part of the challenge and pull of it.

I've been in Landmark doing my building for the past year. This is a program still in closed but open to anyone. It is the graphics engine being developed for the next Everquest. It use voxels to build which are a cube about 10" on a side. Very similar to Minecraft, you say, but when you see what can be done and the smoothness of things you build you know you're in a different world.

I've build way to many things to undulate you with here, like the Eiffel Tower, Mark Trains Victorian house, tunnels, trains and tree houses. Here is a "green and yellow" tractor with harrow on a farm I built.

This is a seacoast town that has expanded beyond my wildest dreams when I started it with a fish store and hotel, not with theater, bowling alley, art museums, blacksmith, general store, cafe, laundry mat, windmill, amusement pier with ferris wheel, shipyard, yachts and a sunken ship.

I just did a walkthrough of my city, and it's now 63 buildings; many are residential. There's an indoor pool, a pizza place, a shopping mall which took far too much time to build, a minecart sales/repair shop, a lumber yard, a large storage shed, and probably something else I'm forgetting.

This is the view from a dirt pillar I just made.

It's the only way I can get pictures. You may say, "Just fly up and take a picture!" I can't, because this is all in survival mode with no cheats.

This is the latest addition, called Woodland Heights, a kind of anti-city. The forest off to the right never existed when I made the move here. It was a hills biome, and I planted every tree on there.post-13841-0-49274300-1422944356_thumb.j

There is a short underground metro system tying the two settlements together, and another above-ground rail system heads from the forest to a pair of villages. Past the villages, I've constructed a small prison which isn't done yet.

I have a lot of time :lol:
