Reasons Why Minecraft is Successful

1) Infinite playing

2) It has a strong community by sharing ideas through Youtube

3) Platform agnostic-eventually released on several platforms

4) It is a game for many ages, a game that adults approve for kids. 

5) Not limited by genre- up to the player to make the game how they'd like it, alongside the creations they wish to make

6) It creates a sense of order and structure to our lives- not a violent game
