To many, Minecraft is more than a mainstream release that continues to entertain millions. It forms part of their upbringing. With Mojang recently launching version 1.19 of its open world sandbox game, the studio is keen to keep it in good stead with the community, despite it being well over a decade old at this point. The reason why it's still so popular is the sheer number of things that can be created. The fan base is simply bubbling over with talent, much of which demonstrates the power of the game's Redstone element.

Recently, Reddit user CaptainShivy617 showed off such prowess by creating their own version of the classic game Yahtzee within Minecraft. A brief video shows the game in action, with the player hitting a button to begin a round. Just like in the original, it involves rolling dice, only in this instance, they're displayed digitally. After a few attempts, CaptainShivy617 is able to get a full «Yahtzee!» which is displayed on screens. The clip ends with them showing the back of their recreation, giving some idea of the complex work that's gone into the project.

For those who've never played it, Yahtzee is a beloved dice game that started out in the 1950s. Players must roll a series of dice in order to score points, which can be rolled up to three times during each turn. In order to achieve a «Yahtzee,» which is worth 50 points, the player must get five of the same numbers in a row. Seeing it being translated to the digital world shows that it's still something that fans enjoy even to this day.
