I think i have crossed an age threshold or something. My nieces play mine craft and speak about it like I would have airplanes as a kid (And by "kid" I mean "adult".)
So I have a couple iPads and I put it on them awhile back and let my kids (5&7) give it a whirl. You would have thought Jesus was in the iPad giving free tickets to heaven. They went Ape for it.
I sat down with them this evening and had them show me what it does and I am not getting it.
The graphics are crap and there seems to be no real goal. You build stuff and then kill sheep or something![Dunno :dunno: :dunno:](/community/styles/poa/poa_smilies/dunno.gif)
They are fascinated by it and are asking to watch videos of people playing it.
It is unbelievably popular. Granted I don't play any video games but that is because I get started and can't stop. There was a semester in college where I think I never left the house and just stayed home and played Quake. But this one seems to be lacking in the reward area.
Anyone else baffled by this game?
Is there a goal I am missing?
