I have indeed, but after building a huge viaduct that stretched for miles and hollowing-out a mountain to make a hotel in Minecraft, I got really frustrated with ONLY having regular, cubical blocks to build with - whereas 'Lego Worlds' gives you LOADS of different-shapes of blocks to use - tall, thin ones, long, double-depth or single depth bricks, a huge variety of slopes, both standard and inverted, as well as thin plates and smooth-topped tiles - in a massive range of colours and materials! It's SO much more versatile! Compare my 'Chrysler Building' to other people's Minecraft ones: https://youtu.be/CsEkVfL1aaQ?si=qKmrBa5ZyYoOSOGS

I think my sons and I began with "Duke Nukem" back in the '90s. That was a really involved, gripping, 3-D saga of a game, where you played the title role (only option), who was a big, strong, 'Arnie'-type of character - progressing through the various levels of a city overrun with hostile aliens - so there was a lot of shooting involved, as well as exploration and problem-solving. It was played on both the PS1 and early-Windows desktop PCs. After we'd managed to finish that - we later on moved on to "MediEvil" on the PS1, which was a very similar kind of explore/adventure game, though set in medieval times - with the overall goal of eventually defeating Zarok, the evil sorcerer who had put a spell over the village and surrounding areas. You played the game as the main character - who was a resurrected skeleton-in-armour named Sir Daniel Fortescue - and there was a degree of humour in it as well! That game was so popular that it was recently re-vamped for the PS4 - with exactly the same story, levels and tasks - but with MUCH more advanced and more realistic graphics! But my current favourite of all games - purely for its potential for sheer, almost limitless creativity when it comes to building castles, structures, houses, etc., is "Lego Worlds" - where - as an artistic and creative person anyway - I can get lost in building the most complex and involved castles and towers my imagination allows me to - all out of a huge selection of available, virtual Lego bricks - on a limitless choice of small worlds, which are themselves entirely complosed of Lego blocks as well! There IS an 'Adventure Mode' where you can search for new bricks, and new weapons, and perform tasks for characters you come across to get rewards (and fight baddies) - but I, personally, love playing it in 'Sandbox Mode' - where I can concentrate on designing and constructing my castles and towers at my own pace! I've made 'tour videos' of some of my constructions and posted them on my YouTube channel - it might be something The Butler could get into, seeing as he's an artistic sort like me...? I bought it originally for my grandaughter, but I thought "Wow! This is GOOD! I'll have some of that!" - so I got my own copy for my PS4.
