      It’s a voxel engine. It’s not anything on it’s own, but it’s made to be extended with games and mods to become you want it to be.

      It’s also not a “clone” of Minecraft, it doesn’t try to be Minecraft. Well, one of the games people made for it does but the base game itself isn’t.

      It’s been around for a long time, since around 2010.
