> 3 dayThe program is very overpriced and is pretty much a tutorial on how to copy and paste and draw in gimp. All you do is copy their code into your mod you dont learn ANY of the fundamentals of the Java language. Mods are very very limited

Greater than one weekPerfect for my coding/tech loving son. We bought it for him around age 10, then again age 12. He wanted to redo it. Now he codes and makes his own Minecraft mods. It is a very engaging video.

> 3 dayMy sons been looking at this for a while now. Okay, its worth paying for making education fun but I find this too high. Many online courses for free. Nice this is offered on Amazon to give as a gift but you can buy this download many places online for $150. I was hoping to find a bigger discount for Christmas. For $50 Ill wrap a printout of the purchase in a box to put under the tree if I do decide to purchase it. I was hoping to find this boxed nice for a gift but the price is way too high on Amazon.

> 3 dayExcellent. The instructing is done so well for the 8-14 year old they have no idea that they are actually learning or taking a class. My 11 year old jumped right in, installed the software himself and looks forward to going to the next lesson each day. Terrific product!

> 3 dayI thought the presentation of the material was incredibly entertaining. My 11-year-old Minecraft fanboy was laughing out loud. This is the future of instruction - lectures via video crafted and perfected. Justins explanations are spot-on and are crystal clear. This is saying a lot given hes walking your kids through editing java code and the slightest mistake will cause a crash.

> 3 dayMy husband bought this as a birthday gift for our daughter, who turned 8 this past Saturday and is obsessed with Minecraft. So far, were very impressed. I have to think that some of the reviews that comment on difficulty downloading & installing the various parts are a bit outdated, as we had to only download and install a single 500+MB file which took care of all the dependencies automatically. It seriously couldnt have been any easier.

> 3 dayThis program is well worth the cost, 11 year old loves it. He had some beginning experience with python but is new to Java. The lessons are well put together and her is picking things up great. Great support as well, they are very quick to respond to his questions.

> 3 dayI rarely bother to review anything, but we bought this for our 9 year old son for Christmas and he immediately became obsessed. I cant comment on the quality of the content, because my son really did all of the components independently (and my Minecraft and coding knowledge is limited). But I will say thank you to Youth Digital for putting together a program that was easy enough for him to move through independently and engaging enough to keep him involved to the end. He emailed questions to Youth Digital along the way, and always got quick and helpful responses. After submitting his final project he got a thoughtful and thorough review of his mod. A staff member had clearly taken the time to play through his design and note what worked and what didnt. That meant a lot to him.
