In the gaming world, it seems as though it would be near-impossible to come across someone who hasn't at least heard of Minecraft. Its open-world vastness, infinite creative potential, unique visuals, and the fact that it's a game that doesn't require high-end PC specs, all contribute to it having mass appeal, transcending age groups, and just generally being one of the biggest IPs in recent history.

They can even push them around or throw them. It also gives the ability to create ice pillars in water, as well as throw and detonate bombs, similar to BotW. The ability to pick up blocks can even be utilized for mob spawners, which could be handy for players.

In general, it's a very impressive
