    It's very cool to give people a way to be involved with urban design, especially experiencing the actual tradeoffs of space and movement that you can really feel when you're building and moving through the space. It does seem they're moving away from using Minecraft as the singular game used to help people explore urban design options, since Microsoft decided it didn't want to help fund this program anymore. But still, good on them for supporting it for a decade.
