What independent review sites say:

Androidtapps.com:

"I think for pure playability, Block Story might have the edge over Minecraft"

"On its own Block Story is a brilliantly executed game, but I think that it will only ever live in the shadow of the game it resembles, which is a shame, but the truth."

droidgames.com:

"You wouldn't normally think about the mashing of a game like Morrowind with Minecraft would be a good idea but as it turns out, it's actually a pretty amazing feat."
