We'd like to offer an honorable mention to The Blockheads (APKMirror). It was a well-loved Minecraft alternative for a long time, but Noodlecake had to take the game down because of disagreements with Google Play. You'll have to install the APK today. We have a step-by-step guide for that here in case you require it.
