Minecraft is a creative place where you can use you imagination and build what ever you want whenever you want.how you play Minecraft.heres how to play Minecraft..First you will find a button play after you press the play when you get onto the “Create world “ button .After that you will name your world what you want to name it after that you can choose what type of world you want Survival or Creative?
