Other sandbox games?

    Do you know other cool sandbox games? I've played TPT, Minecraft, Golems Game (that's one kinda cool, I suggest you to try it), Algodoo a.k.a Phun, ScriptBlocks and I am kinda bored with them. I am mostly for simulation sandboxes/engineering ones as you might notice (I play minecraft only because of mods like Powercraft, pure redstone is just too weak).

    Can you suggest some?

    I see. In that case...
    FSG3D_B3 (http://fallingsandgame.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=25414)
    That one is a 3d simulator.

    OE cake (everyone knows this one... http://www.scuzzstuff.org/oe_cake/)

    Sumotori (http://www.gravitysensation.com/sumotori/index.php)
    That one is not a particle simulator, but it is still a physics simulator.

    I can't think of any others... The only other one I have is one from Nvidia (liquid simulator)

    Terraria is basically a mix of Minecraft, Meteroid (whatever you call it) and Zelda, you can get it here http://terraria.org/

    Ace of Spades turns Minecraft into modern-day war, you can mine and lay blocks, and shoot those baddies with...well..guns. http://www.ace-spades.com/

    What is meteroid? You don't mean metroid (Newer games are metroid prime) do you? Forgive me if It seems as though I have no idea what Terraria is about... I've never played it, nor do I know what it is about

    Also, the good old Garry's Mod shall provide you with hours of entertainment, more so if you're with a friend. Then stuff gets awesome. Wiremod is a must for gmod. Imagine: Automated invisible stalker bots tracking down your friends while you chill in your bunker protected by automated turrets and a self-destruct system.

    Some people play Dwarf Fortress, but I never got to it.

    3D Physics simulator? Why not a real-time top-notch high-end physics engine and game creator like CryEngine 3? It probably is too high-end, but you did ask for an alternative to Blender...
