With the release last month of The Simpsons content pack for Minecraft, players had access to Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, Maggie and 19 other characters, but no Springfield. However, Minecrafters are nothing if not industrious, and one of them has not only constructed the entire town, but also recreated the show's opening sequence.

Given the constraints -- for instance, there's no skateboard for Bart, and there are a limited number of residents -- the recreation is surprisingly faithful. More impressive, however, is Springfield itself, which "Barely Regal" has made available for an interactive tour. You can check out both in the videos below.
