People have created bridges, castles, and even the Eiffel Tower in the popular sandbox game Minecraft. Fans are even inclined to create another Earth in the game. Hopefully, they’ll beat Nvidia’s Earth 2 before it goes mainstream. But that’s not even close to the creations that can leave any viewer’s jaw dropping.

A video game inside a video game sounds interesting. And a classic video game like Tetris inside Minecraft takes the thrill off the charts. Someone who might’ve become bored and wanted to do something interesting in the pixelated game created the classic game, first developed by Alexey Pajitnov in 1985. And the results are just mesmerizing.

That is Not a Super Computer, But Definitely a Superb Effort

We don’t want to dive too deeply into this creation, but this Minecraft enthusiast built an entire CPU in the pixelated world to play video games. Though players cannot forecast weather events like one of those NVIDIA supercomputers, they can play Tetris there.

A gamer dubbed POGR on Meta’s video and photo sharing app, Instagram, posted a video of this creation, where a large pixelated CPU, appearing somewhat close to a large-scale Lego set, was built to play the classic game.

Given he was just a content curator, we dove deeper into the creation and learned about the original creator, dubbed sammyuri, who posted the video a couple years ago on the video sharing platform YouTube.

The in-game CPU, called CHUNGUS 2, is capable of running a variety of programs, as can be seen in the video. The details for the build were shared by the creator for those trying to achieve a similar feat in the game. It took him seven months to develop this build.

Minecraft Players Appears to be in Love With Tetris

It appears like Tetris is among the favorite things players want to see in Minecraft. Several creators in the past have taken this seriously and taken their skills to extremes to fulfil what their viewers demanded.

In May 2022, a YouTuber called Fundy coded the classic game in Mojang’s game. It’s different from sammyuri’s creation, as it wasn’t centered around a giant CPU but the game alone.

Another YouTuber going by the name mattbatwings created the game akin to sammyuri. And after breaking some sweat, his creation was just as amazing as sammyuri’s. Intriguingly, both of the creators made use of Redstone, a resource in the game that serves similar purpose to an electric wire.

Other than the puzzle video game, Minecraft players are recreating worlds from the popular role-playing game Elden Ring. Interestingly, several creations in the game have taken so much time that it almost feels unbelievable to know that the game itself was developed in six days.

What are some interesting creations you’ve come across in the game? We want to know about them in the comments section below.
