    If you upgrade to W10 Creator's Edition- you have a free version gratis- I think you need the paid version to unlock network sharing. Also has a free version of Fallout Shelter and Asphalt 8. Obviously cut down versions- but its a big improvement on Solitaire for those of us who like an odd bit of occasional gaming.

    Just FYI, the windows 10 version of minecraft is different to the original Java game and it is much more difficult to share mods and content. Windows 10 version is all about selling the dlc skins and themes which are all free and widely available for the original Java version.

    It's more difficult to install mods because the mod launcher/installer guys haven't made those utilities for Minecraft for W10 yet. You can share mods just as easily, probably easier with the new file format they have.

    The W10 version is also far superior without mods, and when mod content finally starts to be produced, will run at something above single digit fps finally.

    Its one of the free games included with W10CE - i.e. in the same way you'd get solitaire in previous Windows games- you get Minecraft on Creator's Edition....... Its the cut down version- but hey- its good fun.
