About Minecraft: Java Edition
Minecraft is a popular video game that allows players to explore, interact with, and modify a dynamically-generated map made of one-cubic-meter-sized blocks. The game's open-ended model enables players to create structures, creations, and artwork on various multiplayer servers or their single-player maps. Other features include redstone circuits for logic computations and remote actions, minecarts, and tracks, and a mysterious underworld called the Nether. A designated but completely optional goal of the game is to travel to a dimension called the End and defeat the ender dragon.
