I'm a homeschooler so I didn't really have high hopes for the game. I logged in successfully using a virtual school email I had, and was able to create a world. I could move around, and destroy blocks. But when it came time to place a block, I pulled up the inventory, and there was the list in the search bar, but it wouldn't let me load the other individual tabs, and I couldn't put a block in my tool bar. Also, I had to double click everything which was annoying.

very fun and good if you want to learn how to code it could do with a new biom or two and one block in the game because that is my favorite game mode it wasn't laggy even when I didn't have Internet it ran smoothly so was great for long car rides ots good if you have a phone controller that the game still works as well so I give it a 5 star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Exactly the experience I needed! I wanted for so long for my school to add my favorite games into the curriculum, and they did! Now I zoom to my computer just to hop on the school server first and honestly it's great. Having different blocks in the game too is awesome, I just recently downloaded some texture packs and it was a great experience. But with the new blocks, I was able to make so many mini games. I even posted it on the internet. And now, I have like $24.61¢ worth of minecoin, thanks!
