Not being a die-hard Minecraft fanatic, coming up with reasons to avoid buying the Pocket Edition hasn't been particularly challenging so far. If I'm going to play the game, I might as well have all of the newest updates, and since Minecraft has always been a time sink for me, mobile doesn't really make sense.

That said, when the asking price on Android drops from $6.99 down to the temporary sale price of $0.10, reasons such as these fly out the window and I'm left yearning to toss some spare change Mojang's way. This isn't the only game to see such a discount, but it's surely the one most will focus on.

Disclosure-bot: Just in case the editor neglected to mention it, we have zero control when deals start and end. Deals can sometimes be gone within minutes (please don't shoot the messenger). Trying deal links even hours after this article's time stamp may lead to self-punching, so maybe bookmark our video game deals if you're on the hunt. Also, it goes without saying, but some shopping links do directly support the author. If you've spotted any inaccuracy please let us know asap.
