My kid is 7 and autistic and suddenly he has started liking Minecraft. He’s watched me play it and wants to play himself.
How can I get him started? Do I just give him the laptop and trust he can figure it out or do I find a way to explain the controls?
My absolute dream would be to spin up a server with him.
If you are looking for a block-builder to play together.
Luanti is a good option.
No spyware, free cost, no AI, heaps of mods/gamemodes, helpful community, and fun.
I’ve seen 80 kids easily learn and play cooperatively with Luanti(previously called minetest).

** The Mineclonia game mode tries to be similar to the MineCraft way of gameplay.
