Gotta say, i'm really shocked how much i'm enjoying it.

It handles really well, and bulding is quite easy. its a bit boaring when compared to its PC counterpart, but they say we will get updates to change this.

As a free form bulding game its great, i'm just not sure how the combat is going to handle once adventure mode is introduced.

Thoughts?
 
I've heard so much about the PC version and would love to check that out on the iPad. Playing too much other stuff at the moment. I'll wait until the iPad version catches up to the PC. I really wish they would release a controler for the iPad though.
 
I haven't played Minecraft, but did pick up Junk Jack which is similar. I can say without a doubt it's been worth every penny. It's probably in my top 5 favorite iPad apps, which says alot. The developer is also constantly updating it too.
