I wonder where Minecraft falls in their classification? In my sphere of interaction both young and old females gravitate to Minecraft, as well as Stardew Valley and high fantasy MMOs like EQ3 (but emphatically not WoW).
Found this in the comments. "Of the games we included in the Sandbox group, Minecraft was highest at 24% and is dragged down by titles like Dwarf Fortress."
Needs a (2017) in the title.
True, I bet things got a little weird in and around 2020 for literally no reason at all.
I'm a little disappointed that fighting games didn't get a number.
