EVERYONE IS CARED FOR SO WE
HAVE MANY GAMES TO CHOOSE FROM!
MINECRAFT
Minecraft has two versions, (MInecraft) Java and (Minecraft) Bedrock. Each version has it's pro's and con's that we'll list below. We host both versions.
Minecraft Java is ONLY on pc. It has a huge range of mods that vastly increase the complexity of MInecraft and provide a crazy amount learning opportunities.
Java is a lot harder to connect to your friends world. We provide a private server for our participants but it will be harder for participant to create their own private world
Minecraft Bedrock runs on all devices and it's a lot easier to privately share your world with your friends. This makes playing with a wider range of people easier and quicker.
Bedrock has add-ons but they cost additional money or are a pain to install. Even then the paid add-ons are far far worse than the best free Minecraft java mod.
There are the main differences between the two. If you need help with navigating anything we're happy to help.
