Minecraft is considered a masterpiece of the gaming industry and the best-selling modern video game in the world (in 2020, the number of copies sold exceeded 200 million). Every gamer who played this game and was delighted with it will most likely appreciate the games from this collection because the creators of each of these games borrowed some mechanics from Minecraft mechanics and added something unique.

Terraria

Terraria is a crafting and building game with cute 2D graphics reminiscent of console games. Terraria will especially appeal to those Minecraft fans who prefer survival mode, because here the main emphasis is on fighting mobs and exploring dungeons, rather than on creativity, although here you can also build a beautiful block house with a lot of interior items. There are over 3500 types of items in Terraria that you can craft. As in Minecraft, while it's light it is better to travel through bright biomes and collect resources and stay at home at night because at this time aggressive mobs begin to spawn en masse.

Realmcraft

Realmcraft is the best option for you if you want to find a free game that is as close to Minecraft as possible and provides a similar gaming experience. So far, the game is only available on IOS and Android, but it is quite convenient to play it from a PC using Bluestack. Inside the game, you will find Creative Mode, Survival Mode, and Worlds Mode (beta multiplayer with 30 ready-made worlds). The creative mode is suitable for calm and creative people who like to build and don’t like to fight off mobs, and the survival mode is ideal for extreme people who want to build and craft in difficult conditions, getting food and all other resources with their own hands.

Block n Load

Block N Load is a co-op action sandbox that is a classic shooter, but with Minecraft-style 3D graphics, humorous dialogues, and well-designed characters. The main point of the game is the opposition of two teams of 5 people. Before the start of the battle, each team builds a base of various blocks, supplies it with explosives and other traps, and then engages in a bloody shootout with the opposing team. Each battle here is different from the previous one because, in the course of the game, the game world changes and expands, and each block built or destroyed affects the course of the confrontation.

Trove

Trove is a massively multiplayer game in which you can choose one of sixteen unique characters, customize them through crafting, and explore a wide variety of voxel worlds. In each world, you will have a list of tasks that you need to complete before you can open the portal and start exploring the next exciting world. Each next world will be more difficult than the previous one and the monsters in it will be stronger, but the loot you find will also be more valuable. Also here you can create your own cube world and travel around the world in the company of other players.

LEGO Worlds

Basically, all Minecraft-like games are visually almost indistinguishable from each other, while Lego Worlds stands out for its world built entirely from branded bricks, a unique building mode, colorful figures, and the presence of story quests. To be more precise, first, you have to complete quests and help the inhabitants of different planets make their lives more comfortable with ready-made sets, but then, when you complete many quests and unlock all the parts, you can build anything from cute Lego bricks.

Creativerse

Creativerse is a more realistic version of Minecraft with elements of futurism: in the gloomy dungeons of the Creativerse world, you can find many mysterious artifacts and high-tech weapons inherited from ancient civilizations. The world is not procedurally generated here, which is a disadvantage for many Minecraft fans, but this feature allows you to leave your mark on the world. Also in the dungeons, you will have to fight hordes of hostile mobs. You can both fight and cooperate with other players. In addition, you can use the teleporter to quickly return to your friends.

Portal Knights

Portal Knights is a four-player co-op action sandbox. As the plot tells, the game world was once huge and prosperous, but then the Empty King split it into thousands of small scattered islands, which can only be traveled with the help of portals. Your main mission will be to defeat evil and unite small worlds into one. Choose from four character classes and fight monsters in action-packed, tactical 3-person combat. Portal Knights also have a sandbox mode in which you can create your own unique island.

Unturned

Unturned is a free zombie apocalypse survival game created in the cube style of Minecraft. Interestingly, a 16-year-old schoolboy became the creator of the game, and this indie game quickly gained fans. The goal of the game is obviously to build your own shelter, extract resources from abandoned buildings, and defend against zombies. As with almost any multiplayer survival game, in Unturned every player you meet can be an ally or a dangerous enemy who wants to kill you for profit.

ECO

ECO is a multiplayer economic strategy that demonstrates how much human activity affects nature. You and other players know in advance that humanity is threatened with death from an asteroid fall, but a catastrophe can be prevented if humanity is sufficiently developed and invents the necessary technologies. Your team must make decisions quickly and smoothly so that humanity can reach the highest level of progress. At the same time, it must be remembered that too intensive exploitation of nature can destroy your society long before the fall of the asteroid, therefore it is necessary to maintain a precarious balance.

PixARK

PixARK is a Minecraft-like clone of the realistic multiplayer survival game ARK: Survival Evolved. The Pixark world is filled with dinosaurs and other outlandish creatures to fight against. You can play alone or in tribes with other players. The essence of the game is not only to build your base and create resources but also to fight with other tribes and expand your possessions.
