Minecraft is a phenomenal sandbox game that gives the player complete freedom to explore and change the endless cube world. It makes it possible to feel like God, who can destroy everything, and can create a new world from scratch. For this, Minecraft already has more than 200 million fans. There are many games inspired by Minecraft, but not many of them have at least half repeated the success of the legend. In this list, you will find only the best mobile games in the style of Minecraft that can diversify your gaming experience.
Realmcraft
Realmcraft is one of the highest quality alternatives to Minecraft. There is a Survival mode, a Creative mode, and a Worlds mode in which you can engage in creativity with friends. Explore a unique procedurally generated world, look for useful resources, create the most powerful armor to fight mobs, and show your talents in the construction of any architecture. Additional advantages of this Minecraft-style sandbox are the fun multiplayer mini-games (egg wars and bed wars) and a variety of custom skins.
Terraria
Terraria is a 2D pixel platformer with survival elements, notable for the presence of classes that are determined by the weapons the player wears and a wide variety of monsters that attack the player’s house at night. To protect against monsters, you can choose not only a standard sword or bow, but also a pistol, a rocket and spells. Compared to Minecraft, there is more action and similarity with RPGs. Just like in Minecraft, here you can freely explore the world and engage in construction. There is also a cooperative mode that allows you to play with friends.
Starbound
Starbound is a 2D space sandbox that provides the ability to fly a spaceship, explore new planets, collect resources, and, of course, build and craft. Starbound is notable for the fact that in addition to the procedural generation of the planets themselves, all weapons, armor, flora, and fauna here are also created randomly. The game has multiplayer, so you can cooperate with friends against bosses or fight them in PvP mode.
Junk Jack X
Another nice pixel-based sandbox, similar to Terraria, in which you have to fight for your life. At night you will have to hide in shelter from predators, and during the day you will explore the mines in search of valuable resources and materials for crafting. In the future, you can craft for yourself the most powerful armor and not be afraid of anything.
The Blockheads
The Blockheads is a two-dimensional interpretation of Minecraft with a moving screen. To some Minecraft fans, it seems too primitive, but at the same time there are gamers who consider this game more adapted for mobile devices than Minecraft PE. In addition to the standard features of crafting, construction, and research, there are elements of Tamagotchi. It is necessary to monitor not only that your character doesn’t die of cold and hunger, but also that he is happy and sleeps well.
Block Fortress
Block Fortress is a Minecraft-style shooter with elements of the tower defense genre and strategy. First, you choose your planet. It may be earth-like, or it may be desert or radioactive. Then you must build your own castle. Nobody limits you in the appearance of the building, but it should be strong enough to protect you from enemies. Then you need to shoot all the enemies who dare to approach your castle.
Eden World Builder
Eden World Builder is a crafting and building game with convenient and intuitive gameplay designed specifically for mobile devices. The name speaks for itself: here you can build your own paradise by moving blocks of different types. Like Minecraft, there are friendly and unfriendly mobs, the ability to share creativity with friends.
Lunacraft
Like Starbound, Lunacraft is a sandbox for space lovers. Here you can explore the infinite universe, build anything from blocks, and fight unfriendly astronauts. Also in this game you have the opportunity to make friends with aliens.
Block Earth
This 3D building sandbox differs from the original in slightly softer graphics, the ability to fly around the map on a rocket pack, and the presence of a grenade launcher that allows you to enjoy loud and massive destruction of blocks. In general, the possibilities of the game are the same: you travel through an endless world, simultaneously realizing your architectural fantasies. There is no survival mode here.
Pixel Worlds
Pixel Worlds is an exciting MMO RPG where you will create your own blocky world, fight monsters in the dungeon, and go to visit other players. In this game, competitions are constantly held, for example, fishing tournaments. You can also create your own unique items, and then sell them to other players.
