Life science officer Tom Rodgers said: “There was a rollercoaster, a giant rainbow and someone turned College Green into a volcano.”

Minecraft is a game, but there’s no winning or losing. Gamers create digital worlds.

“There was no Metrobus or Arena – maybe that’s not what 12-year-olds are concerned about,” Mr Rodgers said.

The museum’s maps, which cover the city center around Harbourside, can be downloaded via the museum’s Twitter account.

Mr Rodgers stated that he had never done a digital event like it before. However, he said that he wanted to inspire people to try their hand and give them new ideas.
