If you keep a close watch on the App Store (or have an RSS feed that you follow) you may have seen an app dubbed Minecrafted there on Monday morning. It's a Minecraft client for iOS and is a new version of the extremely popular indie game that is able to played on an iPhone, and connect up to real Minecraft servers. Do not rush to download it. The app has been removed from the App Store and you'll receive an error message if you try to locate it on the US store. What's the problem? TUAW contacted the app's creator, Trevor Wilkin, and Wilkin told us that his original plan was to develop the client, submit it to Apple and then receive official approval from the makers of Minecraft before putting it up for sale. Mc name Apple threw it live immediately it took a while before it went live, and Wilkin claims that he "pretty was a bit shocked and removed from sale as quickly as I possibly could." He's not sure if the app is genuine or not -- it's 100% original code according to the description, however presumably he backwards engineered some things, as it's compatible with the current servers and versions of the game. To us, Wilkin sounds innocent enough. He says that he has "no desire to hurt the brand and only wanted to launch an efficient tool. I'm still hoping to work out an official solution that doesn't step on anyone's toes." minecraft names We hope so, too -- having Minecraft running on a regular basis on iOS would be a nice bonus for both iPhone owners and those who love the immensely popular game.
