FWIW, my 5th grader read this comment and got actively agitated at the comparison. He adores Minetest and wanted to convey that he "has a great community to play with". Of course YMMV, but I thought his take was worth mentioning.

Just in case my comment wasn't clear: I think Minetest -> Minecraft is at least a fair comparison, even if there are some glaring omissions in Minetest.

My bran flakes -> pancakes statement wasn't referring to Minetest. I was referring to the Age of Empires clone the parent comment recommended instead of Minetest.

P.S. Kudos to the young one for being open minded and independent about alternatives in the face of heavily-marketed-and-heavily-peer-used things! I can tell they're already wise beyond their years =)
