== History ==
In 2011, as the full version of ''Minecraft'' was approaching its November release date, Persson attempted to reach out to the LEGO Group to propose a game project. Persson had been partially inspired by his childhood LEGO toys when designing ''Minecraft'', and he had a lifelong dream of working with the LEGO Group. Persson and one of his employees at Mojang, Daniel Kaplan, met with someone who was able to get the two of them in contact with management at the LEGO Group. The two attempted to pitch a ''Minecraft''-like LEGO game to the company, but were initially met with skepticism regarding how long ''Minecraft'''s popularity would last. Persson and Kaplan were eventually able to meet with LEGO employee Daniel Mathiasen and discuss the influence LEGO had had on ''Minecraft'' and their desire for the two companies to work together.{{R|BNB 01|pp=9–10}}
 
The LEGO Group ultimately approved of the project, which was codenamed ''Brickcraft'' there; Persson dubbed it "Project Rex Kwon Do",{{R|BNB01|p=10}} named after a line from the 2004 film ''[[Wikipedia:Napoleon Dynamite|Napoleon Dynamite]]''.{{R|BNB01|p=5}} Work on the project began on 5 September 2011.{{R|BNB01|p=10}} The initial concept was to simply add a LEGO brick aesthetic to the gameplay and game design of ''Minecraft''.{{R|BNB01|p=12}}
