Playing a Deleted Minecraft Version - Pocket Edition Lite

Playing Minecraft Pocket Edition Lite in 2023
This Minecraft Pocket Edition demo used to be on the android play store and apple app store but has since been removed. The only way to play now is by downloading off of fan made websites which is what I did for this video. It is a very old nostalgic version of Minecraft with exclusive features such as the cyan flower and nether reactor core. It was a very limited edition of Minecraft which stopped you from using a lot of features just to showcase what the full game could be like if you paid for it. Playing pocket edition lite in 2023 brings back a lot of old memories before I ever bought the full pocket edition on my ipod many years ago. Lots of herobrine sightings were filmed on this edition and it made it extra creepy with the bad graphics and low render distance creating fog. Comment down below what you remember about this deleted edition of Minecraft. I would love to hear any video ideas you have for me in the comments as well :) Please leave a like and subscribe if you enjoyed this Minecraft let's play episode and I will see you very shortly with more content!!!

THIS. THIS WAS MY FIRST VERSION! I KNEW I WASN'T IMAGINING IT! I have a really distinct memory of hiding from zombies in a 1x1 glass 'house' with a single torch on the floor.

Edit: Kinda wild how many of us actually did this 😅

I actually used to play this version on my IPad 2 when I was 6. I still have it on my IPad which still works, and I am able to see the 5 worlds I made. It brings me back to the old days when your world was 256x256 and the only biome was oak or birch, and you only had a set inventory. Currently it runs on the alpha editions of pocket edition.

Edit: Omg I never knew that I would get so many likes! Thx a lot

A minor detail I like for some reason is that the “LITE” naming scheme was actually the standard App Store branding for any “demo” version of a paid game. Doodle Jump Lite, Angry Birds Lite, half the apps on every kid’s phone had those 4 big letters draped over the home icon. By the late 2010s Apple themselves started phasing this out, rejecting apps with multiple versions in favor of one free-to-download app which uses IAPs (In-app purchases) to unlock the full content. Now the ftp model is standard, and all Lite versions are dead.

In that way this application is not just a relic of Minecraft’s past, but the mobile ecosystem as well, in the days before micro transactions. Lot of reasons to remember this era fondly, lol

I remembered playing the Lite version, at this point I call this history.

Man THIS is where I started Minecraft. Me and my friend didn't have PCs capable of running Minecraft so we often played on our tablets. I remember pocket editon was missing so much stuff from the regular version. Pocket edition at first had no weather effects, no nether, no enchanting, no day night cycle in creative, few biomes and finite worlds. However over time they slowly added all this stuff into the game and every time they came out with a new update we were SO happy lol. I kinda miss this ngl.

Oh! I used to play this version!
I was so scared of zombies, that if I saw them, I delete the game 💀

Fun fact: With the old world border, you could fly up so high and actually land on it and walk around. My brother and I did that just to see what would happen, and while nothing interesting did, we could never find our way back to the world itself.
The nostalgia is unreal

It wasn’t boring at all, at least when I was a kid it was so easy to be entertained by this game because of how massive it was, and being able to play it, even a extremely dumbed down version of it was still a treat. This game will forever be one of the best ever created

[uncreativeluser]

I remember playing on this version, digging a “secret base” into a cliff near the water with sand below it, placing torches everywhere to make it as light as possible, and wondering why I couldn’t place torches on the ceiling

[Pudding]

Back then me and my buddies spent countless hours on this version of minecraft, it really didn't take all too much to keep us entertained, we made do. Getting a bit teary-eyed over this, thanks for unlocking some tossed off to the side memories.

I remember playing this as a 6 year old. I remember making the tiniest library with like, 2 blocks of room to walk around in. I also remember being extremely proud of this library.

[francan]

Fun fact: you can break out of the invisible world border. Just fly over the block limit and you can break out free. This applied until infinite worlds were added. Even in 0.9.0 upwards you can break out if the map was made before infinite worlds

[dmk]

I remember that version. One time, a few zombies went into some water, and that's when I called it the "Zombie Pool". I also wondered why most blocks were unavailable.

[ZaBrowski]

The good old days of making the dumbest builds for hours and having a wave of sadness wash over you knowing the world would get deleted once you closed the app 💔

[-picaro]

brought some memories out of the vault with this one. I remember moving from Florida up north and this is what kept me occupied during that straight up pilgrimage. This was my FIRST experience with Minecraft and I wouldn't change it

[ItsCel_Lin]

This was incredibly nostalgic. I remember I would always download APKs of the official PE cuz my parents never trusted online stores back then. The first ever real house I built was an underwater dome made entirely of glass, it took ages getting all the water out just placing down dirt and breaking it again, but I still remember it vividly. There was something special about the old world generation. It felt smaller if that makes sense, maybe it was just due to the render distance but it felt a lot cozier, like everything was always within reach. I'll always be nostalgic for that era of Minecraft

[Vintagesonic]

In my country, instead of it being called the "Lite" version, it was just simply called "Demo". Because of this, I thought the "Lite" version was somehow the superior version, so I made it my mission to somehow get my hands on the Lite version of Minecraft. When I eventually did, I can not describe the disappointment I had when I realized it was identical to the demo version, just with a different name. 😭💀

[LiquidSevens]

I played the heck out of this demo when I was a kid. It wasn't so boring when you'd never played Minecraft before. Good memories, I got the 360 edition a couple months later. Back then, this was the greatest.

[Larrieee]

As a kid who grew up with a samsung galaxy tablet I bought at sears this version is all I knew for ages with basically no internet access or data, seeing family or friends play the newer version made me very jealous lol

Only real OG’s remember the downloading the multiplayer server addon app.
