All Sandbox and Open-World Games

This group collects the Interactive and Networked Media Landmarks subcategory's members whose own description explicitly names them a sandbox video game or credits them with establishing the sandbox-style, open-world action genre as its own defining trait rather than a secondary feature of another named genre: Minecraft (self-described as a sandbox video game) and the Grand Theft Auto series (Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas), whose own entity description for the franchise-originating title credits it with establishing the modern open-world, or sandbox-style, action game template, applied consistently across all three GTA members of this subcategory for browsing coherence even though the two later titles' own text leads with the shorter label action-adventure game.
