Multiple gameplay methods are available, including survival setting where the player must acquire resources to create the world and keep maintaining health, a creative method where players have unlimited resources to develop with and the ability to fly, an experience method where players can play custom maps created by other players, and a spectator setting where players can journey around and clip through blocks, but cannot place or destroy any. The Computer version of the game is noted because of its modding scene, in which a dedicated community creates new gameplay technicians, items, and resources for the overall game.Minecraft received praise from critics after release, and acquired numerous accolades and prizes. As of 2016 June, over 106 million copies have been sold across all platforms, with more than 40 million unique players every month, rendering it the best-selling PC game up to now and the next best-selling video game of all time, only behind the many releases of Tetris.
