If you like building things, you should get Minecraft PE. You can blow up stuff and build lots of things like a fort, a house, and lots of other stuff. If you use dynamite to blow stuff up, be sure to use flint and steel and then tap on the dynamite. Make sure not to stand too close or you will also blow up and die.

There is survival and creative mode. In survival mode you can gather blocks and build too. You can kill animals and get food and supplies. There are also zombies, spiders, skeleton warriors and creepers. Beware, they will attack you and creepers can blow up at anytime. The spiders are harmless during the day if you don't mess with them. In darkness, the spiders will attack you. Monsters can hide in caves or your creations. If the monsters walk on the ground during the day, they catch on fire.

If your creations have no light you might want to poke some holes in your creation to let light in. If creepers find their way into your house, making holes will bring light in and kill the creepers. Once the creepers are all gone, cover up the holes.

If you see a monster die you might not want to build on that area. Warning skeleton warriors will shoot arrows at you. If one shoots at you, move around because it will be hard to aim at you. If you see a building go and hide. If you don't want to deal with a creeper that is in your creation, poke holes in the building and wait. That will do the trick.

To kill a animal or monster tap on it. After you kill the monster sometimes you will get supplies. To create other things, go to your inventory and right next to where it says armor, look for the word craft. Tap on it and look for a crafting table. Tap on that and you can build a lot more stuff! You can create armor by going to the armor tab. The better the supplies are, the better the armor will be.

In Survival mode it is harder to destroy blocks. In creative mode it is easy. If you don't want to wait at night, create a bed and tap on it and wait until you get out of bed. If you are wondering if portals are for iPads they are not, I tried. If you want to play with a friend you have to download a seed app. Don't tap on your friend or you might hurt them. P.S I am talking about the iPad version for Minecraft P.E.
