My boys love this game so much! We already had it on the computer, but my two older boys really wanted to be able to play it together. So, we got this for them, and they love it so so much. I have strict restrictions on the amount of time my children play video games, generally 1 hour max per day. But, this is the ONE game that I often make exceptions for. The creativity I see when they play, with the amazing things they build and are SO excited to show me, makes me so happy! The calm, soothing music it plays instead of fast paced, quickly-becoming-obnoxious, loud music and sound effects that accompany most kids video games out there today. I actually enjoy hearing the music when they play and have been known to tell them that they can turn up the music a few notches if they like!!! Also, the conversations between them as they play, as they talk about creating things, and how to create them, and think of new ideas... it's just refreshing. I never thought I'd actually enjoy seeing my kids be so involved in a video game, but Minecraft is SO different.
