[[File:Mclogo.png|90px|Minecraft|link=Minecraft]] is a [[wikipedia:Open world|sandbox]] construction game created by [[Mojang AB]] founder [[Markus Persson]], and inspired by the ''[[Infiniminer]]'', ''[[wikipedia:Dwarf Fortress|Dwarf Fortress]]'' and ''[[wikipedia:Dungeon Keeper|Dungeon Keeper]]'' games. Gameplay involves players interacting with the game world by placing and breaking various types of [[blocks]] in a [[The Overworld|three-dimensional environment]]. In this environment, [[The Player|players]] can build creative structures, creations, and artwork on [[multiplayer]] servers and singleplayer worlds across multiple [[Gameplay|game modes]].

''Minecraft'' is available to all players for [[wikipedia:Euro|€]]19.95 ([[Wikipedia:USD|US$]]26.95, [[wikipedia:GBP|£]]17.95). When purchased, singleplayer and multiplayer game modes can be played using the downloadable stand-alone [[Minecraft launcher|launcher]]. ''Minecraft'' [[Classic]] is [http:}/www.minecraft.net/classic/play available to play] for free. The official [http://minecraft.net/demo demo] is also free, but has a time limit.
