very great game mojang!👍 I love how this game is made for education. examples: math, creativity, coding, more stuff that I forgot, ect. People that say the game is lagy need a better device.😭🙏 although, it's just Minecraft but with coding and it's just dead because everyone is on a smp or smt. the game is very great on computer and you can actually get some mods. some don't work but I like the one block a little. I played for hours on this on my computer trying to figure how to code. great.👍

This game is amazing. There isn't one problem expect how everytime I have to login. But everything else is fine! It's like the actual Minecraft, but it is free and has some cool features added, like for example: Code builder! The problem with that is I cannot get rid of the character when I spawn it. It annoys me a lot, but it's fairly a good game. (That is free)

I'm a homeschooler so I didn't really have high hopes for the game. I logged in successfully using a virtual school email I had, and was able to create a world. I could move around, and destroy blocks. But when it came time to place a block, I pulled up the inventory, and there was the list in the search bar, but it wouldn't let me load the other individual tabs, and I couldn't put a block in my tool bar. Also, I had to double click everything which was annoying.
