App Addiction: Minecraft

Hey Chicas! About a week ago, I downloaded the free Minecraft app for my iPod Touch. Within the hour, I was hooked. It's such a fun game!

You can play Minecraft in two ways, Creative or Survival mode. I really only play Minecraft in Creative Mode, because you can't really die in that version. Once, when I tried survival mode, all these stupid sheep were bouncing around. You're supposed to kill them or something, but I was like hahahahaNO. Then I built a house because at night all these creatures come out and kill you or something. I was in my little bunker when it got super dark outside. I stood there listening, when I heard growling noises. I literally shrieked and quit the game. Therefore, I prefer Creative Mode.

In Creative Mode, you have lots of creative ability. You can choose from all these blocks in your inventory to build stuff with. You can dig, climb, jump, even fly (but I haven't figured that one out yet). You start or spawn in this random world. It can be filled with everything, from flowers to mountains to oceans. You basically build whatever you want! I normally tunnel through the mountains to make quicker routes everywhere.

I also like building houses and towers. Today, I actually built this ridiculously big house with all these different levels built on top of a mountain. It had lots of rooms and balconies and tunnels and stuff. I build most of my houses out of red brick, but today I built it out of this grey stone. I actually just figured out how to use torches. I used to just hold them and be like, " TORCH!! WHY U NO WORK?" No joke. Oh, and another thing. I HATE BEING UNDERWATER. Sososososososososososo much!!!!! I always get stuck and just die.

One problem with this game that I have is that it doesn't save. If I exit the app or get a Facebook notification or something, it deletes everthing. If you know how to fix this, tell me please! It also might be the fact that I'm on the free version. I dont feel like spending 7 bucks to play a game I'll probably only love until the next awesome app comes out. If it's totally worth it, maybe I'll get it.

Tell me what you think about Minecraft! I want to hear your opinions! Also, let me know of anyother awesome apps you love, so I can check them out. Love you! :)
