# Minetest Game
|
|
|
|
[](https://content.minetest.net/packages/Minetest/minetest_game/)
|
|
|
|
Minetest Game (abbreviated MTG) is a simple and peaceful sandbox game, with no
|
|
real goals or built-in enemy mobs.
|
|
|
|
While it provides a basic gameplay experience out of the box, it is best played
|
|
with mods.
|
|
|
|
Minetest Game is in perpetual maintenance-only mode, meaning it will not see new
|
|
gameplay features or anything else that breaks compatibility (see
|
|
[#2710](https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/issues/2710)).
