"...a promising new take on the genre" - IGNhttp://www.ign.com/articles/2012/09/19/patterns-could-be-the-next-minecraft

"Patterns is focused on an experience not dissimilar to Minecraft, but with a heavier focus on creativity" - Joystiqhttp://massively.joystiq.com/2012/09/20/linden-lab-reveals-its-next-game-patterns/

"Players assume the role of an unnamed polygonal protagonist set free in a world begging to be deconstructed and manipulated.That’s the sandbox. What any player does with it is entirely up to them." - Polygonhttp://www.polygon.com/2012/10/12/3494046/poking-the-box-why-linden-lab-creates-shared-creative-spaces
