I will mess about in Minecraft when I need to unplug my brain and wander aimlessly or just be constructively creative.  It's a shame the Alpha is so unstable (for me) as I tend to crash every 5-10 minutes, especially when I have other Java-based apps open.  I recently had 2 days traveling with no Internet, this is the result.

yep, I tried one once and ended up flooding the whole place  ::) ... with magma and water down different stairways.

anyway... this thing looks like it could be something that's interesting. What's the goal (or is it like DF in this respect  ::)) and where can I get it?

Graphics looks (slightly) better, I'll give it a go.

There is no real goal in the game. It's a _huge_sandbox, figuratively and literally :)

Explore the vast randomly-generated landscape, dig your shelter against the hordes of zombies and green walking penises at night, build enormous structures or houses or statues of yourself or rollercoasters with minecarts, mine for ore deep underground and upgrade your equipment with rare diamonds, go spelunking in fascinating underground cave systems full of monsters and valuable ores, etc...
The game is centered around exploring and building.

The free "classic" version is boring, you can only build structures in there. "alpha" is where development is currently happening, but it's not free. Only alpha offers monsters, mineable ores and stuff.

Minecraft is like 3D Dwarf Fortress. In fact, there's a guy working on a way to convert save games from DF to maps for MC. Now you can pretend you're a dorf!

Is the survival mode gone?
About a year or so ago, when I was playing it there was a survival mode you could access even without paying money. (and a 3D mode for use with 3D oldshool 3D googles  ;D)

I just got Minecraft today, after playing a bit with the "free" thing.
At first I wandered around, looking for those monsters. But there were only sheep and chickens. Even at night nothing attacked me. Until at some point I saw the difficulty level. I changed it and TADA, creepers and zombies around my place.
But the most kreepy of all was a zombie in one of my very deeply ested mines where I was mining near the ground of everything. All of a sudden a zombie is in one of this loooong hallways, moving towards my position.
I was like: WTF? where did this one come from, I have several doors which are all closed (In case the mine gets flooded the door should stop the water). I got lucky, this one chose to take one of the sideways which was my chance:
I run like hell to the next "watergate" and close the door behind me. Just in time as the zombie got ready to kick my ass.
I killed him with a rock sword later. But I cannot walk my mines with the same laisse fair attitude. I got a sword ready at all times.

P.S. I found out that those things spawn at dark places... I used up lots of candles now. Everything inside is well lit now.
