When compared graphically with similar games Skyrim, clear title Minecraft will not be able to compensate. Game studio Artificial AB fathers is indeed made with the concept of low-resolution graphics and looks "boxes" that would not be able to compensate for any game graphically rich textures and visual effects.
However, in terms of games, obviously Minecraft has a potential that can not be underestimated. The game is actually genre "sandbox" that let players get around in a world that is made at random at the beginning of the game. The purpose of this game is not something that is obvious but just let the players go around in the daytime while at night to take shelter because popping a monster that could injure or even kill the player.

The main strength of this game is actually on the activities of mining it. The word "mine" in the title game was meant to mine. The player can dig up anything in this game, there is soil, rocks, wood, leaves, coal, until the sand. With the features of "crafting" the player can combine these elements into something new, from the ax or hoe that allows them to mine or the sword that is useful banish the monsters.
In addition to mine, the player can arrange the blocks that they have become something new. Therefore, playing Minecraft like playing blocks like Lego. From something simple, many players are able to build a magnificent structure and detail, whereas in Minecraft all shaped boxes.
