      And minetest+mineclone2 is pretty good if you want to play minecraft but don’t have a license

        Thank you for this! I have already logged hours playing with my kid since seeing your suggestion. We have only played mineclone2 so far. I will look into veloren next.

          Nice to hear it! Mineclone is actually very good mod and you definitely should try veloren, good luck

        Minetest in general has such a good mod selection it’s insane! My siblings and I never fail to have a good time goofing around with the plugins people have created.

      Came here to mention Endless Sky. Great game!

      Don’t be misled if you were a fan of the old Mac games Escape Velocity or EV:Nova, Endless Sky is inspired by/derivative of EV but is not the same and you’ll (well, I did) find out the hard way that the old strategies don’t carry over.

        I grew up playing the EV series and I love Endless Sky. Is there something about the clone that you don’t like? I can’t thing of a change that I dislike. For example, fleet management is improved. Being able to dock your various ships and escorts is pretty cool.

      I recently got into that game quite a bit. Playing it on steam. Just the other day I discovered I can board pirate ships and kill the crew to claim the ship as my own. That has been a significant power boost for me and really unlocked the game.

      Even before that I was having fun trying to survive with limited power while still exploring the world
