Good news, people with a desire to virtually hit things, one of the many things that’re going on in celebration of Minecraft‘s 15th anniversary can cater to that need. Especially if you fancy having a barney with the upcoming Minecraft movie, at least in a manner of speaking.
This is hardly the only thing going on to celebrate the anniversary, with the option to claim 500 Minecoins for free being another, along with 15 days’ worth of new character creator items designed to represent “a different year of Minecraft history”. Because, you know, the block game is basically like a small country in terms of depth of lore and heritage nowadays.
Anyway, back to the good stuff. This easter egg I’m talking about is a little widget that currently pops up if you search, well, ‘Minecraft’ via your Chrome browser. If you click on the block, your cursor’s swapped out for the square arm of Steve, allowing you to mash away at the search results as through they’re a tree you’re punching to death in the game because you need wood, night’s coming, and you don’t want to end up back in your bed-wetting phase.
