Minecraft is a sandbox video game created by Swedish programmer Markus Persson and later developed and published by Mojang. The game was released in 2011 and has since become one of the best-selling video games of all time, with over 200 million copies sold across the planet for various platforms.

Minecraft offers several game modes, including Survival mode, where players must gather resources, build structures, and fend off monsters. Creative mode allows players to fly and build without limitations. Adventure mode lets players explore custom maps and challenges. The game also features a multiplayer mode where players can collaborate or compete in shared worlds.

Minecraft was later bought by Microsoft in 2014 for $2.5 billion, leading to further updates and improvements. The game has a large and active community that creates mods, custom maps, and texture packs, enhancing the gameplay experience. Minecraft has also been used in educational settings to teach subjects like mathematics, history, and computer programming.

Minecraft has had a significant impact on the gaming industry, inspiring countless developers and players alike. Its open-ended nature encourages creativity and exploration, making it a beloved game for people of all ages.

Minecraft also has a Bedrock Edition, which is available on various platforms including mobile devices, consoles, and Windows 10/11. This edition offers a more stable and consistent experience across different devices.

Since we covered the main parts of Minecraft, there are many clones in the market. One notable project is Eaglercraft, a web-based version of Minecraft that runs directly in the browser. Despite DMCA takedown attempts, it remains popular for users on managed devices like school computers. It is based on decompiled Minecraft versions compiled for TeaVM.

For legal reasons, we agree on the Minecraft EULA and we know that this is not for any commercial purposes, so this is technically legal, and we are hosting Eaglercraft because it is free to host.
