Cute Minecraft version

With "Block Story" gives a nice variation of Minecraft, which was expanded to include RPG elements. Block Story plays just like the original in a block-based world. That looks kind of cute, reminiscent of the graphic ago but somehow at role playing à la Might & Magic III from the early 90s.

But the world is not in block passes through stages, but with fluid movements. The control works in the default setting on a soft joystick in the lower left corner and a jump button to the right. The line of sight in turn can be changed freely by wiping across the screen. Other control options are selectable in the game through the options.

The levels are quite simple and can be described as in the original manipulated almost at will. Long press on a block that is crumbling and can be collected. Which can then either further processed or simply installed elsewhere in the game again.

There are - built various quests in the game and you can earn XP points and thereby expand the capabilities of his character - in addition to a tutorial. These facilitate a research and life in the game world. Overall the game is extremely open, you can do and be what you want.

The setting options in the options are very extensive, especially in the field of graphics, you can set a lot to achieve on his tablet or smartphone a reasonable performance. On the Kindle Fire HD, the game runs on liquid in easily bored graphics settings.

The graph itself is surprisingly good - if you like to the block graphics. She remembers me as I said to the early '90s on the PC. Can you like, but you do not.

The required permissions the memory requirements are in order, surprisingly low. The app comes in German, other language can be selected in the menu.

Overall, a well-made app and a nice variation to the original Minecraft. If you like the gameplay of such open world and the block diagram does not prevent quite a buy recommendation.
