I just finished talking with a colleague whose six year old loves minecraft and I remember talking with a twelve year old who was similarly obsessed - to the point of knowing the patch numbers and all the details. The community which grew organically around this game is incredible, and that kind of peer-to-peer promotion is priceless.

I have used twitch.tv for perusing games I am interested in as well as screening games for my niece and nephew, usually I send a link to my sister and ask if the game is acceptable and would her kids enjoy that.
- tterrace 14y agoThat was another thing he mentioned - his kid watches all the minecraft youtube videos too. I'm sure if you get bored of doing your own thing you can take a look at what other people are making and come away with a whole new perspective on how to play the game.
- pimeys 14y agoI remember my friend telling me about this game and showed me a youtube video of the gameplay. I tested Minecraft and didn't like it. After a while I tested it again and I was completely hooked. Today we're playing it almost every evening after work with my wife in our own server. Doing missions together, building our own city, farming and raising animals. I just found out the FTB mod pack for it. It's unbelievable how much stuff people have added to the game. Now I can make a portal gun, build a railroad system or design my own futuristic neon city. I paid like what, 10 euros for this?
