Brickcraft is a cancelled sandbox game developed by Mojang.
Gameplay

Now that we have a leaked build, we can describe gameplay here.
Brickcraft was planned to be a sandbox game like Minecraft.
In the leaked build, the player can place five different LEGO bricks: 1×1 1×2, 2×2, 2×4, and 1×2 slopes. The playsr starts off with ten thousand of each type. The colours can be cycled through and chosen before placing. Breaking a brick increases its amount in the inventory; the brick's colour is ignored.
