dude I've been trying to remember the name of this game for like the last month and I randomly got recommended this, thank you so much

[@New_Skeptic]

I reminded myself of this childhood gem not that long ago and this pushed me to make this vid. Glad I helped

[@uBreeze]

Blockheads was fucking awesome for me. I honestly only vaguely remember Blockheads but I have some super fond memories of making amazing friends that I unfortunately no longer have. I would spends dozens of hours just joining random servers and using their chat to talk to random people, building around and making a decent base and then moving on, even catching some people that were doing the same as me or having the same constant few servers that I’d love. It was super easy but I didn’t really play the game for the game, it was just awesome meeting people and just going through the same mindless steps of Blockheads, it takes me like an hour to catch up to endgame or maybe a little longer if I’m making my new “incredible” (terrible) base as I chatted with complete strangers.

[@MrShadow679]

Now all multiplayer servers are down.. 😔

[@karatekidfahim3]

4:38, I just want to say, thank you very much for using my image from reddit, I recently was playing expert mode and got my 2nd blockhead at that time named chuck (guess where?) and explaining on the rise & fall of The Blockheads very well.

[@New_Skeptic]

I've got a full gallery of screenshots from my Blockheads gameplay in 2015, but couldn't find it for the video. Seems like it is lost-media now, which is sad.

[@myyoutubeaccountgotsuspend8666]

This video absolutely deserves to blow up. It has all the right ingredients and is of quality. Banger vid

[@New_Skeptic]

Thank you so much. Such comments always motivate small ytbers

[@Enemiii]

i played this game a looong time ago and it's been in the back of my mind for so long... great video

[@stealthboost2805]

Very nice vid! Glad to see new blockheads content after all these years, it’s truly an amazing part of my childhood

[@New_Skeptic]

The same case with me. I was always playing Minecraft at home and then Blockheads when I was outside 🤣

[@Nido__]

this just brought back so many memories...

[@swordemon_]

dont remind me of some of my sad memories of this game

[@macsfree]

solid vid man

[@Viking-K]

Ahh, I think my 1st Multi Player game. I remember those griefers, we were at war once, 1 v 4??. ultimately we won by trapping the spawn. It was like David vs Goliath.

[@New_Skeptic]

Hah most my memories are from singleplayer and spending school breaks rating friends worlds

[@AirSkyyy]

This would’ve been the most aesthetic game in the genre

[@ChrBnks]

I was just thinking of this game last night, Google can read my fucking mind, Amazing vid man!

[@New_Skeptic]

lmao

[@catifyvids]

Great video! How do you only have 11 subs!!?!?!? I am definetly subscribing

[@New_Skeptic]

Thank you. Few days ago I had 0 so it's time to make this number big

[@catifyvids]

Sorry for the reply 8 days later, but with your new video, i'm sure you'll have millions of subs one day! Keep on going, your content is great.@@New_Skeptic

[@unluckyminecultist]

Perfect video

[@New_Skeptic]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@atlaszateman5288]

So thats the game name! Been tryna remember it for years! Neat!

[@caguioajargozle5393]

I loved plating this game with my cousin it was fun

[@sleepyboi2852]

Absolutely amazing video, keep up the good work!

[@New_Skeptic]

sure I have way too many ideas to cover!

[@neptuneash4617]

hi, I just found this channel

[@Pexito2324]

Welcome! Have a good experience!

[@Saskri]

amazing video just needs less loud music and loud talking tbh.

[@New_Skeptic]

okay gonna pay attention to that

[@xx_omaga772_]

it was not trying to take over minecraft, i dont fucking understand where youre getting the idea from.

[@sleepyboi2852]

you're a little rude, don't you think?

[@New_Skeptic]

It had real potential to be a huge mobile game just like Pixel Gun (minecraft + shooter game idea). The Blockheads is more of Minecraft and Terraria mix. If the game would receive more care, it would take away a solid part of current mcpe players. Especially younger players who don't have a bank card to buy mcpe, but could download Blockheads

[@karatekidfahim3]

potential* not dominating.

[@Pexito2324]

Good video also I’m first!

[@New_Skeptic]

Nice to see you there

[@Pexito2324]

Thanks pally!

[@eggzilla9594]

I would have watched this but his voice is way too annoying

[@CelticVampireQueen]

I could care less about this game. It was a ripoff, I could tell from the first time I played it. I'm too SMART to play some dumb games that are ripoffs with ZERO original qualities! And you can say "BuT YOuR HiGhNEsS, ThE BLoCkHeADs iS 2D!!!1!!" And I'll state the obvious which is that it's 2D and BORING. I've played MANY 2D games, like Terraria, Kirby, and much more! NONE of them were as boring as this, not even the original Mario Bros! You can say "You're a narcissistic monster" as much as you want, because I don't care; I don't care if I'm haughty, naughty, or care about this game!

[@New_Skeptic]

nah I won't say anything. It's ur opinion. I also hate and consider cringe many things other people love lol

[@SirSponge49]

oh heyyyyyy i remember this game! it freaking sucked! really badly!

[@stealthboost2805]

The waiting was horrendous but honestly, the rest of the game was original and interesting enough that i still love it 😂

[@swordemon_]

i beg your pardon

[@michaelanimations3308]

@@swordemon_ hey everyone has different opinions

[@SirSponge49]

@@swordemon_ Yeah it was buggy as hell and I have a copy of both Minecraft and Terraria anyway so I just played those separately
