-Minecraft is a sandbox indie
game originally created by Swedish game developer Markus "Notch" Persson, which was then later developed and produced by Mojang.
-Being a sandbox game, it allows the player to interact with the game world, building or destroying as they please.
-As a result this has led to the games huge success since its release on May 17th 2009.
-The game itself has inspired creativity and socialising which has led to the popularity of YouTube channels, such as WarriorTherad, to play Minecraft and upload it to YouTube.
-Minecraft currently has sold over 35 million copies over PC, PS3, ios and Xbox 360, making it one of the highest selling games in the world.
