Minecraft - Pocket Edition (iOS and Android)

Post by Twilight_Warrior »

Sooooo a few moments ago, Twitter informed me that Minecraft - Pocket Edition is available on iOS. So, obviously, I ran to the store to grab an iTunes card and downloaded it as fast as possible.
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app//id479516143?mt=8

It's also available for the android
https://market.android.com/details?id=c ... inecraftpe

Both are $7, and multiplayer will be cross-compatible across systems (iPods, iPads, iPhones, and Androids can all play together), but only over local Wi-Fi. Right now it's just creative mode (Alpha version 0.1.2, currently), but they're building it just like regular Minecraft, so expect to see the mining and crafting parts of Minecraft in due time.

Ohey!
Blue flowers!
