Games like Minecraft: The Blockheads & Growtopia

What do you think that makes a game great? Is it the fancy visuals? Could it be the sound effects and music? While these certainly contribute to a title's appeal, a game has to be fun above all – its gameplay is what will keep players coming back for more. Take Minecraft for example: set in a blocky, pixelated world, it looks like something that could have been released back in the 90's on the first-gen PlayStation. Yet over 100 million copies of it have been sold, meaning that people really, really dig the game as it is.
But Minecraft isn't the only game based on the concepts of survival, crafting, and exploration of an endless virtual world. It is one of the many cool sandbox games available on Android and iOS, and we're now going to go over several of them. The list does contain some obvious Minecraft clones, mind you, but we've also included a number of great original titles. Check them out below!

The Blockheads apk

Night is falling and your blockhead is freezing. 
You haven't yet made shelter and your campfire has gone out. 
All you have is a spade, some wood and a few sticks. 
You have only minutes before exhaustion hits. 
Do you create a bed, dig a cave or refuel your fire?

What will you do?

Explore, mine, craft and build in this giant and detailed sandbox game. Navigate huge simulated worlds thousands of blocks wide with a full temperature and climate system, seasons, an equator, and frozen poles. Explore complex cave systems and flowing water, and survive deserts and snowy mountain tops.
BE AWARE! This is a game about collecting and protecting items while playing with actual human beings from all around the world. Your items CAN and WILL be stolen if you don't keep them safe. That is part of the gameplay, and stolen items will not be restored. All of the items necessary to prevent theft are available in the game. USE THEM WISELY!
PARENTS: There is a Parental Controls area in the Options menu - it allows you to disable buying Gems and Tapjoy Offer Wall options as well as block chat with other players.
