Minecraft, Weebl and random

A screenshot of someone who has used the blocks in game, to make a screenshot of the Mario Brothers playing a game, on a screen which shows them playing a game... 

Minecraft, the internet phenomenon that has swept like wildfire through the geek world. And mostly unknown to other people. But that is how it is with video games.

Minecraft isn't so much a game as a big set of lego bricks. Lego bricks which you have to amass one by one. By hand. In the midst of monsters hunting you during the night. And the rarest stuff is way underground and close to lava. Tips for enjoying the game include: Don't dig straight up; don't dig straight down; be careful when digging straight ahead. And also no tutorial. Not even a nice picture on the front showing all the nice and wonderful things that could be made by what you have in front of you. Nope, its just you. Some rural place and maybe a sheep staring at you. Better move quick though, when night falls you want to be in a small hole with the entrance blocked in before the zombies can get to you.

This post isn't a review of Minecraft per se but more a recommendation if this sort of 'genre' is up your alley. What genre would that be? I have no idea. Presumebably lego. Except every so often some of the bricks come alive and you have to fend them off or hide from them. But otherwise, like lego.

Also, I can't stop listening to this song. Check out Weebls stuff for more earworms which you just can't quite get out of your head. Mhhh.... pork
