Its a game (still in beta) where you can build anything out of blocks. You can dig in any direction too. Although you need to ccraft picks and tools/weapons to mine deeper and build stronger houses. There are enemies that come out at night like zombies and 'creepers' who explode. It's purely a sandbox game to create stuff in randomly. Its written in java and is very boxy.
I played it a bit when it first blew up. It's definitely cool but the single player mode needs to have objectives or just something in general to work towards and I don't really care enough about just building stuff to play multiplayer.
The creator is putting in objectives such as a non-build mode for zombie attack survival and such. There will be mor eof an objective. But I do know that somewhere around 70% of players play for multiplayer. Thats what is really the fun cheese.
Is a free single player version no longer an option? I could only find the "dead world" browser version, that only lets you break/build blocks (no creating/mining). I watched many videos (thanks Alky 
... ) and searched a bit last night, but was consistantly routed to the "Pay-to-play" registration page. Yeah, I know there are torrents, but they are outdated/unsupported DEV versions, and I no longer trust p2p downloads.
Granted, $15 Euro/$20USD (pre-final release price) isn't that bad for a leisure game. What I can't put much support behind, is a year-old Java browser game with only two people working on it (as of 10 Jan), that has already raked in over $10 million USD, and has had very limited game improvements over the last year. (But dozens of player-based mods/hacks)
Also, the game has already experienced server support issues. The "fix", was to "Move to the Cloud"...
I'm not trying to discourage anyone here, since I will probably give it a shot anyway, but even the developer notes state that there is no guarantee on when / if the game will ever be finalized.
I just hate the thought of learning the mechanics, then venturing into multiplayer only to be overwhelmed by players using unofficial mods due to lack of developer control. Been there, done that already.
btw- I seem to remember seeing a Minecraft thread on another (non fanbased) forum that has generated a few thousand posts in the last year. I'll read through that and see if anything there could be useful here.
@McVapor- While I tend to lean towards SP games, if I get rolling in this (finger gettin' itchy...), I would be happy to join fellow vapers on your server. Those zombies will have to find us in clouds of vapor!

And dedicate an entire server to just processing payments...

I play Minecraft almost religiously but I'm a single player survivalist mostly. I'm currently building the tree house from h*** utilizing a close clumping method and currently have the trees climbing from bedrock to ground level +2 levels (about seven blocks high).
Minecraft, be careful, its ADDICTIVE.

Man.... Notch needs to get his sh** in order. See my signature? It says my server is down but it is not. His server is, but no one can connect.
Infernal even though you play singleplayer, nows the time to play singleplayer considering that Notch is messing up our multiplaying

Actually, it says your server is "Online", but the Minecraft login server isn't allowing connections,
Edited 'cause I'm an idiot. I DL the launcher (minecraft.exe), so no need to open the website for slingle player.

Ah I see. If you click "play offline" you can. All you need to do is log in once to activate that. Hope that helps.

@ McVapor- I edited my last post.
Going to the website isn't necessary for single player if the game launcher file has been downloaded. I had only started the game once, during the launcher install (278kb file), and didn't realize the same file actually started the game from the desktop.
Gimme about a week to figure out how much/when I can play. (other than all - night - long... )
I have a fairly large aviary of exotic birds, as well as a few babies that keep me busy. As addicted as I am already , the birds have to remain my focus.
I registered as CavemanAZ
@ dys- Just make sure you clear your schedule the day you start!
I restarted (SP) 3 times, because I wasn't able to find anything other than wood before nightfall.
Gotta have
or you die!

Caveman, feel free to drop in as I added you to the whitelist. Your welcome anytime. The server name is in my banner
No joke nightfall is a pain but I made a trap that's always fun to push the mobs into
What's annoying though is I got a texture pack didn't like it and deleted it but now I can't play online...had to re download EVERYTHING..
