Minecraft is the one live game on this shelf, and it earns its place anyway: its core mechanics have been stable for a decade, and the demand is the largest in gaming. Quizzes cover the bedrock knowledge every player carries: crafting recipes and what they yield, mob behaviour and drops, biomes and dimensions, the road to the Ender Dragon, and the version-history milestones that changed the game for good. Because Minecraft does evolve, version-sensitive questions carry their anchor in the stem: a mechanic is tested as of a named update or in the form it has held across the game's life, never as a moving target. Redstone engineers, survival veterans, and creative-mode architects all get tiers pitched at their depth. If you have ever corrected someone's furnace math at 2am, you are the audience this cartridge was pressed for.
The front door of the Minecraft shelf: a world of blocks, three dimensions, and one very quiet mob with a very loud opinion. Ten questions on the shape of the whole game: the two faces you can wear, the dimension you start in and the two you travel to, the currency of villages, and the boss waiting at the end of the world. Where a fact depends on the version, the question says so, because on this shelf an unanchored Minecraft claim is a defect, not a detail. If you have ever punched a tree at dawn, you are ready.
