It’s officially mainstream as Mojang’s Minecraft has been couch-gagged by The Simpsons. While not directly Minecraft in appearance, there’s no mistaking their wink to Markus Persson’s sandbox phenomenon.
In fact the Minecraft creator says he’s ”not sure how I feel about it,” and can’t help still feel it’s ”just this small game I made at home.” A small game that happens to rule the world.
Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie are all in blocky form like Minecraft avatars, and the couch gag is topped by Moe the Bartender appears as a Creeper.
The episode ‘Luca$’ aired last night in North America. ”The Simpsons did a Minecraft couch gag. I’m not sure how I feel about it,” tweeted Notch. ”I STILL feel a bit like it’s just this small game I made at home. It’s so weird to have all these things happen,” he added. The latest couch gag is available below.
