When Minecraft: Pocket Edition came out on Android it was a great addition to Android gaming in general.

Things like caves, villages, enchanting and so on are key features still needing to make their way to the game. Still, with all of this missing, Minecraft: Pocket Edition is a great game. However, there is one feature that, for the most part, everyone who has Minecraft: Pocket Edition really wants and that is online multiplayer.
