If you are fan of Minecraft, then you would love this game. Freeminer is a multiplayer Minecraft inspired sandbox game. It is based on Minetest which is developed by a number of contributors from all over the globe. Unlike Minetest it aims to make the game fun while trading off some bits of perfectionism.
