The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback from users, primarily due to the excessive number of ads that disrupt gameplay. Many players report that ads appear every few minutes, often leading to disconnections during multiplayer sessions and causing frustration when they die in-game as a result. While some users suggest turning off Wi-Fi to avoid ads, this limits the ability to play with friends, highlighting a significant conflict between monetization strategies and user experience. Overall, the consensus is that reducing or eliminating ads would greatly enhance the game's enjoyment and functionality.
“This game is amazing! No ads, just play and play all day. There are a few bugs, but everything else is the best.”
“I like that there's no ads and no virus! It's a great game, I'd say. I found a solution for no ads, but sadly it cannot be used for multiplayer.”
“This is a very nice game, and if you are playing alone, turn off wifi or mobile data, then no ads. I love the fact that you can play with your friends, but you have to be in the same house. Overall, best game!”
“The only problem is that this game contains too many ads, which is kind of irritating while playing multiplayer, as you will often get disconnected due to the same.”
“I have given it three stars because of the ads; when I play multiplayer, there are so many ads, and many times I lose my materials because of ads while fighting creepers and zombies.”
“This game is great, but I am unable to change my skin, and there is an absurd amount of ads. When the host of a server gets an ad, the whole server is kicked.”

The graphics of the game are generally praised for their resemblance to Minecraft, with many users noting that they are visually appealing and contribute to an enjoyable gaming experience. However, several reviews highlight issues with bugs and frequent ads that detract from the overall experience, suggesting that while the graphics are strong, improvements in performance and content updates are needed. Overall, the graphics are considered a strong point, but they are overshadowed by gameplay interruptions caused by ads and technical issues.
“The graphics are so nice and everything it's like Minecraft. If you can't get Minecraft, I recommend this game; it's so nice!”
“This game has amazing features and great graphics, but they could add more like Minecraft features to the game.”
“The graphics are beautiful and look very similar to Minecraft, but I really wish they would update it more often because they are missing a lot of things.”
“There's no ender portal and the graphics are horrible, not multiplayer or you couldn't pick that much skins.”
“The game is not good; I see in the ad that the game has security cameras, diving boards, and some animals do not have eyes. Please fix this because most kids download after seeing the ad, and they download and after opening, what they see in the ad and how the game is there. Please don't make fake ads, and the graphics are also confusing, and plants are also black.”
“The graphics are bad; it doesn't even have the vibe. Minecraft is way better.”

The gameplay of this game is frequently criticized for being heavily interrupted by excessive ads, which detracts from the overall experience and can lead to frustrating moments during play. While some users appreciate the graphics and the resemblance to Minecraft, many express dissatisfaction with the controls and mechanics, labeling the game as a poor imitation of the original. Overall, the gameplay is seen as enjoyable when not hindered by ads, but significant improvements are needed to enhance user experience.
“The gameplay is fun, but the ads are overwhelming; can you please fix that? I really don't have anything else to play right now.”

“The graphics and gameplay are good. It's like a free Minecraft!”
“The ads, the mechanics, and the controls are just so bad.”

“It's just a Minecraft rip-off that used actual Minecraft gameplay in their ads. All the game is is Minecraft with just a couple of things with a different texture pack. Most of the things in the game don't change from the actual thing; this is just a company trying to get cash without working or caring about the reviews.”

The music aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many users expressing frustration over the inability to play their own music without interruptions from ads. While some players appreciate the game's potential and suggest incorporating official Minecraft music to enhance the experience, others find the current music offerings lacking or non-existent. Overall, the consensus indicates that improvements in music integration and ad management could significantly enhance player enjoyment.
“When I went into this game, I did not expect much, but wow, what a game! I think you should put some music in; it would improve the experience. Great game, nailed it 10/10.”
“Best game I ever played! Just needs the official music from Minecraft itself and allow people to spawn withers and go to the end to fight the Ender Dragon.”
“Please add a CCTV cam, an ender computer, and a saddle music box for the parrots, fireworks discs, and last but not least, lasers.”
“I give one star because this is not interesting; if you play music in the background, it is better.”
“It's a good game, but there's way too many ads. You can't listen to a full song without three ads popping up, and it randomly deletes half of your worlds.”
“The gameplay gets stolen from the Minecraft Bedrock Edition and from YouTubers that play it, replacing the voice lines and the entire audio with C418's soundtrack used in the game Minecraft.”

The game's story aspect is largely centered around user experiences and personal narratives rather than a structured plot, with players sharing their adventures and frustrations, such as losing progress or encountering glitches. Many users express a desire for a more defined story mode, akin to Minecraft, and share anecdotes about their gameplay, highlighting emotional connections to their creations and the impact of updates. Overall, while the game is enjoyable, players feel that a more cohesive story element could enhance their experience.
“I love my world and houses and I made so many things in this game. I also played this game when I was sad. I was waiting for a new update and one day I saw the update and I was so excited to see what happened. When I entered the game, my world was in despair. I felt so bad and deleted the game, thinking about all the hard work I put into it. This is my story, thank you for reading this. Goodbye, and one message for the owner of this: please fix it, and then I'm going to think about giving you 5 stars.”
“I love this game because it's easy to play and fun because you can join or play offline. I love it very, very much. Thank you, Craftmans! I want to share my story about playing this game...”
“This is a great game, and the reason I have rated it four stars is because there should be an end portal so we can fight the Ender Dragon and the Wither. I have a story that will make you interested: my friend Kenneth said that while he was playing in the jungle, a Wither just appeared. It was so weird that I was surprised. Also, we can't even make the Wither, can we?”
“It's just like Minecraft, but you should put a story mode.”
“I don't like it because yesterday I was working on my friend's dream home for her birthday. Once I finished it, then the next day I logged on and all the floors were gone. It was a three-story house and I spent 5 hours making it for her birthday. She will log on and see nothing; it didn't save 5 hours of work down the drain, same with my other maps.”
“I like this game, but can you remove the ads? This is my story: when I play multiplayer and I get ads, my friend loses connection, and when my friend gets ads, I lose connection. I'm sorry, I can't give you 5 stars.”

Overall, the emotional experience is heavily influenced by the game's technical issues, which can overshadow its creative potential.

“This game is fun and creative. I built an underground place where you can have emotional times; it's a romantic place, and this game is nice and creative. Everything is free.”
“This made me feel emotional in the game!”

Players express a desire for more diverse activities beyond farming, such as trading and various villager jobs, similar to those found in Minecraft. While the game offers multiple tasks, including building and farming, many feel that it requires significant updates to enhance gameplay and reduce repetitive grinding. Overall, the current grinding experience is seen as lacking depth and variety.
“In this game, there are so many tasks to do like farming, building, etc.”
“It's good, but it needs updating to have raids, villagers building and working, and also farming other stuff found in Minecraft that are not present in Craftsman.”
“It needs a sinking ship, ender pearls, eye of ender, iron golems in villages, villagers with jobs, composters for farming, brewing stands for clerics, furniture, mansions, pillagers, illagers, ravagers, raids, totems, outposts, mods, and myths to make it closer to Minecraft; that's how you lost one more star.”

The game is praised for its good optimization, running smoothly even on devices with as little as 3 GB of RAM, making it accessible for users with older hardware. However, players note that it lacks certain features from the complete version of Minecraft, such as the End Portal and the Ender Dragon, which detracts from the overall experience. While the performance is commendable, the presence of ads and missing content suggests room for improvement.
“This is because Minecraft needs a high-end device to be played, and this game runs smoothly even on 3 GB RAM devices.”
“A really old version of MCPE but with new things. Personal experience: nice graphics, nice skin options, good performance on old phones, LAN multiplayer support. A good alternative for Minecraft.”
“Oh, this game has very nice performance, but there's no end portal. Please add an end portal because my friend and I are playing this game in survival mode and we didn't enjoy it fully without it.”
