In retrospect though, I think it's more surprising that it wasn't thought of as a children's game to begin with, and I say that as someone who played it off and on in alpha.

It's not hard to draw the analogy that Minecraft is essentially "advanced Legos", and the prevailing view certainly is that Legos are primarily for children.

Why that's the case is a separate question, but I don't think it's contentious to say that most people assume Legos primary audience is children.
