It Is Not Just About Fun
However, Litcraft is not meant only for mindless fun. The project is replete with some educational tasks that will make the players re-engage with the books. Professor Sally Bushell, who is Lancaster University’s creative writing department head and Lead researcher, thinks it is an educational model that aims to link imaginative spatial experience of book reading to immersive experience of playing games.

What’s Ahead?
The project can be found on Microsoft’s Minecraft.edu website. It is now being offered to the school teachers and librarians in the UK. The initial response to the project is good. Libraries are interested more in the multiplayer options. It can help the kids to think and engage with the project eventually.
In future, more such Minecraft islands will be developed. The next ones may be built around The Swiss Family Robinson and Robinson Crusoe.
