Does anyone know of any interesting and unique #Minecraft "clones", like #VintageStory or even #Terraria (which is a bit far removed from Minecraft, but I'd count it for this question)? I do know of #4DMiner and those two, but that's about it.

Edit: To clarify, I mean games that are clearly inspired by Minecraft, and would be called clones of it by ignorant people, but which actually offer a unique experience of their own. Luanti sounds like it probably has some interesting cases of this, but MineClone itself is actually the opposite of what I'm looking for.

I've had a fair amount of #fun with Luanti (Minetest). It's an open source game similar to Minecraft. The only downside is if you are expecting a nearly 1:1 recreation of Minecraft with the same features you'll have to do a bit of modding.

That said the game has a really rich modding scene and from what I can recall the modding process was quite easy.

    I'd second Luanti, but just clarify that these days it's more of a game platform than a single game. It has a built in content management system to download games, mods and texture packs.

    The games available to install via Luanti range from Mincraft clones like Mineclonia, to semi-clones like Voxellibre, to original blocky survival games like Exile, all the way to arcade style games Extra Ordinance and platformers like Glitch, where you'd swear they were built on a totally different engine.

    Mods for Luanti games are also pretty great, everything from fully fledged train systems to airships and everything between.

    Oh, Extra Ordinance isn't exactly what I was looking for, but that looks really cool. I'll have to give that a try eventually.
