Great for my 6 year old
PostedFor those of you that are new to the world of Minecraft be advised this is not a crafting/ building game but rather a story game as the name implies. The game is more of a multiple choice answer question game with a few puzzles thrown in here and there which is perfect for my 6 year old. The advantage to buying this is that you get all 5 episodes for one price. The disadvantage is that you really dont know when the episodes that you javw already paid for will be released. Great game for the younger crowd, but the teen+ crowd may find it a bit repetitive or boring.

Great to play with kids
PostedMy 4 year old son is a big minecraft fan. So, I bought this as a game we could possibly play together. He cannot read so I have to read the choices aloud to him, but we had a total blast playing it. Only the first episode is on the disc, so you have to download the others (they're free with physical copy of game) and it really isn't too bad to download them. I couldn't believe how much I liked this game. It's surprisingly emotional and full of surprises. A must buy if you are interested.

Simple but fun
PostedIt is "Story Mode," so expect mostly a story with some choices. If for kids, they have to be able to read fairly fast as most responses offer 4 multiple choices, but are timed to the point where as an adult I don't have a lot of time reading and choosing.. This disc only contains episode 1. Episodes 2-5 must be downloaded (free) from PSN. There are 3 more episodes beyond the contents of this disc that are NOT free to download.

Great game!
PostedI have never played Minecraft and don't understand the fuss about it, but I had to play this game because I absolutely LOVE everything Telltale touches. This game is awesome! It has an incredible look to it and it was surprisingly action-packed. The best part about it was that it was hilarious (especially the character Axel). Cannot recommend this enough! From some of my friends who have played Minecraft they say this a must for any fan of the series!

Good for kids 10+
PostedThis game is great. The story is fun, I find it to be much more interesting in story mode than regular minecraft. We got this for my 6 year old and she loves it. I would say though if you are looking for something that your kid can play on their own make sure they are a strong reader. You have to quickly make choices by reading options on the screen, my 6 year old needs help reading that quickly. But overall very fun and friendly.

This is not minecraft
PostedI understand that this game is not supposed to be Minecraft, but honesty I feel like the game misses the point of the original. The traditional Minecraft game is creative and expansive while this game only resembles the aesthetics of the original. If the game was called it something else, I feel that Minecraft: Story Mode would be able to shine more but shoehorning it into the world of Minecraft makes it seem arbitrary.

It's OK
PostedThe game is OK...No where near as cool as the regular Minecraft..My son has already stopped playing it (after a week) and went back to the regular Minecraft....The graphics are what you would expect from the game, but the controls are pretty lame and there is no camera view control, so that gets very annoying!!...The story line itself is pretty boring and repetitive...The voice overs are pretty cool and done well.

Excellent game for kids, and maybe adults
PostedI bought this game for my kids, 7 and 10, they love minecraft and have been looking forward to this one since it was announced, they've had a blast so far (4 of the 5 episodes have been released, still one more to go) It is in essence different from the sandbox that is minecraft, but still keeps enough of it to be a worthy addition, I haven't tried it myself, but I trust my kids' opinions! Very good game!

a nice addition to the minecraft world
PostedThis title is highly recommended for kids who are addicted to the Minecraft game. It's a nice addition to the Mincraft world, giving a solid story with entertaining characters. It is also recommended for Telltale's fans (The Walking Dead, The Wolf Among Us etc), although this one is funnier. But still sometimes you have to take hard decisions like in the other of Telltale's games.

Christmas Gift
PostedBrought this as a gift, but kids started playing it. Beat the first level but the game states that you have to download the next level. Beat that level but now have to wait until the third level is available. If I would have known that I would not have brought the game. But the kids dont seem to mind, so I guess its ok. I would recommend if the kids dont mind waiting to download the next level.

Telltale Games does it again!
PostedTelltale Games has done a fine job of making point and click action type games for a while now, and this one is as good as the rest. If you ever wanted a story tied to the Minecraft world then this is worth your time to check it out. Kids and adults are sure to enjoy it as is, and there are moments that are funny and some sad moments as well throughout the chapters and episodes.

First Telltale game I'd played
PostedAs a new player of a Telltale game I wasn't sure what to expect but was fairly surprised at how much I enjoyed playing this. The only way it could be better is more in-game freedom and expected dates of the episode releases, as far as I know I'm still waiting for the last episode to be released. It's a fun game all together and fun for the whole family.

Kids seem to enjoy it
PostedThe story mode is kind of cool as it is a choose your own adventure type of setup. Just wish they gave you more time to make your choice to allow the group of us to read it through and discuss as we have some younger ones in the family. I could do without some of the "ruder" language but it is fine. Only a few levels through but seems to be fun.

My son loves this game!!!
PostedI was at the Best Buy store with my son and he is a huge Minecraft fan, so when he saw this Minecraft: Story Mode he had to get it. The game is a story mode that allows you to choose a character and walk him through the story choosing options to do. My son plays this for hours and still loves changing and doing different task in it.

Minecraft fan enjoys it
PostedOk, so it's not Minecraft, but that 's obvious to begin with. This is a typical Telltale Game so it's like a "choose your own adventure" game. That said, my 10yr old Minecraft fan enjoys the game. No, he doesn't play it nearly as much as Minecraft, but he does play it and said it was fun. Good enough to get on sale for $20.

A Minecrafter's Opinion!
PostedThis game is great! I played a small amount of the first episode, and it took me 30 minutes, so this will keep you occupied. The graphics are awesome, and so is the story line. I love Minecraft, and am very good at it, and this game is very much like the original, in story format, almost like a movie. Good job, Telltale!

Minecraft story mode
PostedDefinitely a kids' game. Almost like movie mode with some controlling over the characters. My son who is 7 loves it. It's definitely not like the Minecraft we all know. You basically press what you want to say and pick your actions during the story. Some controlling the character through some scenes.

Another Great Telltale Game
PostedIf you are a fan of Telltale's Games and Minecraft, then you sre going to love this game. But please keep in mind that this is a season pass game disc and only has the first episode on it, but it will let you download the rest of the episodes for Free as long as you have the season pass game disc.

Mine raft
PostedPurchased as gift for child this is single player story driven game of Minecraft not a creative world like original with that said my child enjoyed playing this game and likes the story so far. They still have yet to release episode 5 yet so you will have to wait to download the last episode

fun game but...
PostedThe disc includes episodes 1 through 5 (2-5 being free to download with this disc), however episodes 1-4 is one story arc and episodes 5 - 8 (6-8 not being on disc) is another story arc. I enjoyed all 5 episodes, however episode 5 feels out of place due to it starting a new story arc.
