7 Devices You Won't Believe You Can Play Video Games On

1. Minecraft

There is no mistake, you read that right. And if you’re next question is how can Minecraft be considered a gaming platform when it itself is a game, then you have a point.

However, this is one of those things made possible by the sheer brilliance, and ludicrousness, of the human mind. Hans Lemurson had initially set out to make an in-game computer within Minecraft. Why? Well, because reasons.

However when he was asked if this Minecraft computer could also run Minecraft within itself, he set out to create the gaming equivalent of the Inception movie. After putting in the hours, he was able to bring his Minecraft within Minecraft to life.

This game inside of a game requires the user’s character in Minecraft to operate a switch in order to move and eradicate blocks, very much like the original version of the game. While this is technically not a device in on itself, the surreal nature of the whole thing grants it the top spot on this list.

We've truly reached the singularity, where the weirdest device you can play a game on, is another game.
