MY WEB COMIC – I Downloaded Minecraft Pocket Edition on My Android and…

My kids are into both Minecraft Pocket and Terreria.

Both of these games are what I would call, creative survival sandbox games. You’re placed in a world you have a lot of options to create and mess around with your environment. But the world is very dangerous so you have to make sure you can survive in order to keep playing.

The creative stuff didn’t really appeal to me.  I can do that just by drawing and making comics.  But the survival stuff looked like fun. It gave the creative stuff a useful purpose.

I hadn’t realized that’s what these games were about until I watched a video of a guy learning to play and dramatically trying to survive playing Minecraft Pocket edition.  It looked like fun so I decided to check it out myself.

I found I can’t play the game any day I need to get work done or it won’t get anything done.

Here’s the video that I watched that got me interested:
