Gameplay

After choosing your character, you can begin the game. You'll be able to play on different worlds and you can choose the option to start with a bonus chest. If you're on survival mode, you'll want to mine as many materials as you can to build a house before it gets dark. Once darkness falls, enemies will come out and attack you. If there are any enemies left when the sun comes up, the enemies will catch on fire. On the other hand, players on creative mode can create all of the items they need to survive before switching to survival.

You'll also be able to dig beneath the ground and find different building materials, like gold and diamonds. In addition, some maps will have villages that you can visit. Most of the time, these villages will have a few chests that you can check and take any items you need. The villagers will usually leave you alone and you can go into a house if night falls before you get back to your own. Eventually, you'll be able to build a portal and go into the Nether. There, you can fight several different enemies, including Enderman and Enderdragon. Before you try to fight them, you want to make sure you have the strongest items you can because they are hard to defeat. You don't have to rush to get your materials because these enemies are a part of the story mode and you'll need to face them to finish the story line.

Final Review

Overall, the iOS version of Minecraft is very similar to the PC or console version. Not only does it have the same modes, but the gameplay is basically the same. While the graphics aren't as good as the PC or console version, they are a lot better than other games. Add to that the fact that you can set many parental controls and limit the type of multiplayer invitations, and it's no surprise the game is one of the best child-friendly options. It's a great option for playing Minecraft on the go and it can be a thoroughly enjoyable experience if you can get past the controls and smaller screen.
