Coding Town by Script Academy is a brilliant free online game. It has a Minecraft look to it, however, the main object of the game is to make money by building stores (lemonade, coffee, ice cream, etc).
When other characters in the game pass your stores, you money increases.
You can also get helpers and program them to do some of the repetitive tasks.
