I take Minecraft Earth for a walk through central Stockholm, and soon find myself crossing streets and heading down paths I don’t recognise, all just to get within range of more chests. I take an unplanned walk through a supermarket, seriously consider scaling a wall so I can tap the cow on the other side, and even look up at one point to find myself in a cinema, holding an apparently-purchased ticket for the Judy Garland biopic Judy.
Looking back now, it’s hard for me to pick a favourite moment from the experience, but Renee Zellwegger's performance as Judy Garland in Judy is phenomenal, and the musical numbers simply sweep you away. Sure, I’d have rather seen the gritty origin story of Judy from ‘Punch and Judy’ that I’d been expecting, but this is still an excellent fil- wait, what was I meant to be talking about again? Oh, Minecraft Earth! Yeah, that’s pretty good too.
Having been thrown out of the cinema for trying to tap a chest that was in someone’s popcorn bucket, I continue searching the city for tappables. Obviously having your eyes glued to your phone while out and about is far from a good idea. Luckily, there’s no need to keep staring at the map for tappables, because your phone will vibrate when one is in range and ready for a good tappin’.
But annoyingly, sometimes I’ll feel my phone vibrate and excitedly check it, only to find it’s someone texting me. Like my boss complaining that I’m not at work, or my boyfriend proposing to me, or some other inane rubbish that I can’t tap on to unlock more spruce logs. I highly recommend blocking all your contacts before playing. Less distracting.
