Game Interface Preview: Minecraft (PC)

If you own a PC and are at all interested in gaming, by now you’ve probably heard of Minecraft. The very definition of an “indie” game, Minecraft was conceptualized, created and released by a single person. Because of its appeal, the game has become a phenomenon, generating millions of dollars in sales with over 1 million units sold. Extraordinarily impressive for a game that has had no formal advertising, no publisher, and is sold directly from the creator’s own website. Markus Alexej “Notch” Persson has created a game that is both one of the simplest games you may ever play and one of the most engrossing.
