Minecraft is a 3D sandbox game with a very low poly graphical style. Everything in the world is made out of boxes that you can destroy, harvest and place. The game has creative and survival modes; In Creative mode you have an infinite supply of blocks which allows you to build whatever your heart desires, in Survival mode you have to work for those blocks, crafting tools to make your life easier. Oh, and monsters will be trying to kill you while you're at it, so you'll have to build bases to survive.

I assumed you played those browser game only - here have none
After I read your comment, I think you might ONLY played games in Web Browsers (Firefox/Chromium/Opera etc.).
Sorry, the games here must have an installation process then you can play, that also means you have to grab them from somewhere.
Here also to be different, you must install them in a way thats up to your distribution,
Ubuntu? OpenSuse? Meego? I don't know.
But here we sure can help you if you reply with your details.
Minecraft is commercial game,
Minecraft is commercial game, so you'll have to buy it at http://www.minecraft.net/ if you want to play.
However, if you can't afford to buy it, currently there are 3 free Minecraft clones available (as far as I've heard, Minetest-c55 is the best among them, but I may be wrong):

LGDB mostly lists games, you have to go to the game page to dowload/compile/buy the game in most cases

It's a great sandbox and it has many features of the great Dwarf Fortress. I play it every day, and I am going to buy the game.
Incredibly Entertaining
I can't stop playing this fun sandbox game.
So many ideas of things to create, so little time.
The game is still in Alpha but has a promising future. Frequent updates every few weeks.
I hope when the game reaches Beta that the code gets optimized to allow people with slightly older machines to play with greater render distances to be able to see the sun and moon from my crappy Intel integrated video card on my laptop.
Hopefully in the future other game modes come and many more features and bug fixes for multiplayer.

The "game" was just playing with legos. All interaction there was, was adding and removing stones. Weak and not even free.
The full game has a more
The full game has a more interesting survival-mode where you need to gather resources for building blocks and tools. At night creepy monsters appear and try to kill you, so you'd better build a shelter before dusk. Once this shelter is reasonably secured, you may want to build something bigger like a castle or whatever you can think of.
Besides, playing with legos is fun. ;)

You have to buy it to get access to the full feature set. Supporting devs = allows them to put more time into making worthwhile games.
