    Xbox no longer making CD version available..? Would prefer disc. The download only allows you to assign to a single account. So if you have multiple players in the household this option will not work.

    Bought this game for my 9 year old daughter to keep her entertained while quarantined and having to lay low after foot surgery. She and my husband love it! They play alone and together (1 and 2 person play). It allows her to be creative and have fun. Great buy!

    My kids have always been the type to be creative and they like building things. From our 17 year old to our 8 year old, they all love discovering the various items and creating words in Minecraft. This version was a perfect addition to our our Xbox One collection. We much more prefer them playing this than most of the other games out there.

    It was 2 weeks before Christmas and we were shopping for our oldest grandson. All he wanted was Minecraft for his Xbox. No where had it. Not Walmart, Target, Fred Meyer, not even Amazon! As a last ditch effort I tried best buys website and they had it!!!! I picked it up within an hour and the woman working there was amazing and took pity on me. I didnt have my ID and you have to have it to pick up any ordered item, well she accepted a picture of it my son sent me and saved me another hour of driving. My grandson was super stoked and we're happy that he's happy!

    I bought this game for my daughter because she wanted it. I think now my wife is addicted to it. She is not much into video games but she plays this game everyday. It is fun if you like to build things. We don’t play it on survival mode just spend a lot of time building villages plus my wife goes on to aYoutube and learns how to build some really awesome buildings. At first I didn’t think it would get played very much but it is the most played game that I have. Great for the entire family.

    I think Minecraft helps kids to see their create side and coordination, but I do see some mild violence that probably isn’t necessary. Overall I think it’s a great starter game and the kids seem to really like it.
