This 20-second video perfectly explains Minecraft forever

Think you know Minecraft? Well, it’s a three year old game so you probably do. Describing Minecraft to the uninitiated, now there’s the challenge. How do you explain away a game that let’s you ride chickens, explore all of Denmark and fish underwater? You don’t.

No ad to show here.

But most Minecraft players will agree that this video by Keshen8 is the most accurate summary of Minecraft yet. Plus, it’s only 20-seconds long, so you can watch this then get right back to finding those every-elusive pumpkins, which in the world of Minecraft, are harder to find than diamonds.

Keshan8 is also the third-most subscribed LEGO animator on YouTube, says this unauthorised wiki page which can be virtually edited by anyone. The rest of Keshan8’s videos are fantastically funny though, especially his LEGO Batman vs. Superman.
