Minecraft-clone Survivalcraft now available in the Marketplace

Survivalcraft in the Marketplace

Into Minecraft? Of course you are. That also means you're an addict! Admit it, you builder block junkie. Well, the bad news is there is no official Minecraft game for Windows Phone (though we could envision that happening someday), the good news is there is an unofficial clone now available.

Survivalcraft, which we mentioned a few days ago,  is now available for a modest $1.99 with a free trial. From the app description:

"You are marooned on the shores of an infinite blocky world. Explore, mine resources, craft tools. Build a shelter to survive nights. Possibilities are infinite in this sandbox survival and construction game.This is the first release of Survivalcraft, and many more features are planned for later updates. With each new update the price will go up a bit. Purchase now while it is cheap and get all the updates for free!"

Sounds like a cool way to kill some time on our phone, so we're gonna give this a try. Hit us up in comments, especially if you're a Minecraft player, and let us know if the game is yay or nay. Grab Survivalcraft here in the Marketplace.

Thanks, Peter S., for the heads up!
