Minecraft launched for Kindle Fire

17 September 2012

Proving that everything an iPad or Android tablet can do, the Kindle Fire can do again about a year later, the Minecraft: Pocket Edition has been added to the Amazon Appstore. Finally, a proper use for the Kindle Fire.

This way, you can impress people on public transport by pretending to read when you’re actually playing games instead. That’s a win-win, although there’s also no guarantee you won’t attract real life creepers at the same time.

The game’s tagged at $7 (or about R60), and available to download right now. Hundreds of sheep are depending on you to bash them with a hammer until their wool falls off. Are you the hero Sheeplandia needs? Go on, it’s your destiny.
